The children of the late Alaafin of Oyo have expressed concerns regarding Queen Dami, one of the monarch’s widows, accusing her of tarnishing their father’s legacy through derogatory remarks made during interviews.
Reports from GistLover reveal that Queen Dami recently gave a controversial interview with Esabod, where she repeatedly mentioned the late king’s name. Her statements have stirred backlash, prompting the late king’s daughter, Aminat Adeyemi, to respond on behalf of her siblings.
In a strongly worded memo addressed to Queen Dami, the family cautioned her against further mentioning the late monarch’s name in interviews or on social media. The letter warned of potential legal action should she continue her alleged behavior.
The memo questioned whether Queen Dami intended to associate the deceased monarch with negativity and emphasized that she was not his only widow. It further described her actions as increasingly embarrassing and unacceptable.
Aminat, in the post’s caption, emphasized the importance of the warning, calling it a preventive measure. She also posed a rhetorical question about how many husbands or lovers Queen Dami intended to have, adding fuel to their ongoing feud.
The letter, written on the official letterhead of the late Alaafin of Oyo, was unsigned but dated January 22, 2025.
It’s noteworthy that Aminat and Queen Dami have had a strained relationship. Aminat previously criticized Dami after a public incident involving the musician Portable, where Dami reportedly fainted.
