DAILY GIST had reported that Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III, the Alaafin of Oyo passed away in the late hours of Friday, bringing an end to his 52-year-old illustrious reign on the throne.

It was gathered that Oba Adeyemi aged 83, died at the Afe Babalola University Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State

He was the longest serving Alafin of Oyo.

The monarch has been buried in the ancient town of Oyo according to Islamic and traditional rites.

His remains were laid to rest on Saturday within the premises of the palace.

The monarch’s death has been described as a significant loss to the entire Yoruba race.

His demise has quietly caused a stir on social media, just as many have wondered what would become of his wives.

Ifayemi Elebuibon, an Ifa priest spoke about the position of the Yoruba tradition regarding the fate of the late monarch’s wives.

Mr Elebuibon, based in Oyo State, said the queens could either remarry after the late king’s burial rites or remain in the palace where the new king would inherit them as his wives.

He said: “At present, they will be mourning the departure of their husband. After the ceremonies of the right of passage, those who wished to stay back in the palace can stay, the new oba will come and take care of them, and those who wish to remarry can go and remarry.”

“The new monarch would inherit them as part of his inheritance to the throne,” he said.

He explained that the wives of the Alaafin could only remarry after fulfilling traditional sacred rites of atonements and disassociating themselves from the palace.

They are not allowed to marry any member of the royal family or ruling branch.

The Ifa priest also said the traditional burial ceremony and rites of the late monarch have since commenced.

“It is the third day already, and every day comes with its traditional rites and rituals. The ritual would last for three weeks or three months,” he said.

Further explaining the roles the king’s wives play during the burial rites, Mr Elebuibon, who is also a historian, said the Oloris are supposed to be indoors, away from the eyes of the people, until the traditional burial rites are entirely over.

“After the rites and rituals are concluded, the queens would decide their fate; remarry or remain in the palace and become a bride to the new king.

“The new King comes from the various branches of the ruling house. All the ruling houses are like one big family, so from the various branches of the ruling house, they will select a new monarch, where the kingmaker and the Ifa priest would pick him, give him some orientation, and hand over the entire palace to him, including the wives of the previous king.”

According to the Ifa devotee, everything in the palace belongs to the new king when he assumes the throne, the wives and properties alike.
