Queen Damilola, one of the estranged wives of 83-year-old Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, has tendered an unreserved apology to the monarch and the entire royal family for speaking negatively of the monarch after she left the palace in April 2021.
Dami left the palace after she was allegedly locked up in a cell for going against the palace rule. Days after her departure from the palace, she began to speak on why she left. In many of her comments, she bashed the monarch and the palace.
In a new development, Queen Damilola, in a post shared on her Instagram page this evening, apologized to the monarch for speaking ill of him. She mentioned that frustration and some friends misled her to leave the palace.
Her post reads’
I WANT TO USE THIS MEDIUM TO TENDER UNRESERVED APOLOGIES TO THE ENTIRE FAMILIES OF ADEYEMI ( ALAAFIN OF OYO) OVER MY LAST POST. PLS I WANT YOU ALL TO KNOW THAT I’M NOT UNDER DURESS IN SENDING THIS MESSAGE AND THAT I’M IN GOOD STATE OF MIND.
