According to reports, Kafayat was the mother of Prince Adebayo Adeyemi, popularly known as D’Guv, died on Friday night.

The Director of Media and Publicity at the Alaafin Palace, Mr Bode Durojaye, confirmed the dismise of Mrs Olori Kafayat on Saturday morning.

He said, “She died in the United States of America. I will give you the details later.”

Recall that Oba Adeyemi had died on Friday April 22 at the Afe Babalola University Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti, after a brief illness at the age of 83.

Oba Adeyemi became the Alaafin shortly after the end of the civil war. He became the king when Colonel Robert Adeyinka Adebayo was the military governor of Oyo State

Oyo is yet to get another Alaafin after the demise of Oba Adeyemi.
