- The children of the late Alaafin of Oyo have voiced their concerns about Queen Dami, one of the monarch’s widows.
- In a statement shared online, she was warned against making derogatory remarks about the deceased during interviews.
- This comes after Queen Dami had an interview with Esabod that became controversial.
The children of the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamide Adeyemi have voiced their concerns about Queen Dami, one of the monarch’s widows. They issued a cease and desist letter warning her against tarnishing their father’s reputation.
Recall Queen Dami recently granted an interview to Esabod that became controversial. During the course of the interview, she mentioned the name of the late monarch several times.
Taking steps against the widow, Aminat, a daughter of the deceased king, sent a memo from her siblings to Dami.
They threatened to take legal action if she mentions their father’s name in future interviews or online.
The letter highlighted that Dami is not the only widow of the late king yet her behavior is “increasingly embarrassing and unacceptable”.
Aminat Adeyemi added in the post’s caption that being warned ahead of time is crucial.
The letter, dated January 22, 2025 read in part:
“We’ve noticed you’ve been granting interviews recently, which is entirely your choice. However, we strongly request that you refrain from mentioning our father in your conversations. Would you be comfortable if someone spoke negatively about your late father? Even if it wouldn’t bother you, we find your remarks about our father deeply unsettling…
Any interview you grant that mentions our father’s name will result in legal action.”
Aminat, the late king’s daughter, and Dami do not get along. Aminat criticized Dami after she collapsed during her online saga with her estranged lover Portable.
