The children of the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, have warned Queen Dami to stop dragging their father’s name into public controversies. Threatening legal action, they emphasized preserving the monarch’s legacy amidst her ongoing public disputes, including a spat with singer Portable, which involved the revered king’s name.
The children of the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, have issued a stern warning to one of his former wives, Damilola Shukurat Moshood, popularly known as Queen Dami, over her recent public remarks involving their father. In a letter dated January 22, they cautioned her against tarnishing the late monarch's legacy and threatened legal action if she continued to make defamatory comments or involve their family name in controversies.
The warning follows Queen Dami’s ongoing public disputes, including a recent spat with her ex-lover, singer Portable, during which Alaafin’s name has been brought up. The children emphasized their desire to protect their father's memory and urged Dami to focus on her matters without dragging the late monarch into public conversations.
Queen Dami, the youngest wife of the Alaafin, has faced criticism from the public for her actions since the monarch's passing. Many have questioned her decisions, with some online commentators accusing her of disrespecting the royal family and tarnishing her former royal status.
The letter reflects the family’s intent to preserve the dignity of the late Alaafin, a highly revered traditional ruler in Yoruba culture. The children stated that any further attempts to involve their father’s name in public disputes would be met with legal repercussions.
