The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, has passed on at 83 years. Alaafin Adeyemi, the third from the Alowodu Ruling House, joined his ancestors in the late hours of Friday at the Afe Babalola University Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti, the capital of Ekiti State in South-West Nigeria. Iku Baba Yeye ruled for 52 years.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, is expected to make an official announcement upon receiving the report of the monarch’s passing from the Bashorun of Oyo, Yusuf Akinade, the head of the ‘Oyo Mesi’. The Seven Oyo Mesi are Alaafin's principal advisors and sacred officiants.
He was crowned on November 18, 1970, succeeding Oba Gbadegesin Ladigbolu I.
