We cannot overemphasised the importance of His Majesty’s father figure roles in the fight against insecurity, kidnappings and pervasive corruption in Nigeria, particularly being the vanguard voice of the Yoruba people, which is mostly needed now, considering the present aggravated perilous times we are confronted with.

This is indeed a irreplaceable huge loss to all sons and daughters of Oduduwa, particularly the Oyo Atiba Town, Kabiyesi Alaafin remains an uncommon encyclopedia of wisdom and maverick orator of history.
We take solace in His Majesty’s love for the youths, and his unflinching fighting spirit for the restructuring of our governance system, predicated on the succinct delivery of dividends of democracy to all Nigerians, irrespective of ethnicity, religion and political affiliations.
Adieu Baba Alaafin.
