The most prestigious monarch in Nigeria is the Alaafin of Oyo and my father is the Head of that King's Army. Dad is called the Balogun of Oyo. Well, Alaafin has now received the Senior Advocate of Peace award at the UN and we all know for a fact that he's always been a PEACEMAKER.

Princess Sade is a cultural icon and Ambassador to many events promoting the Oyo empire all over the world. I saw her last at my grandmother's funeral where we all celebrated her life and partied till it was 1999.
