Her Royal Highness, Queen Oladaran,Yeye Olori, (1970), The nearly 100 year old queen (consort) who outlived three (3) consecutive Owas speaks to a journalist (Bayo Olowokere). Her pet goat is close by.
Yeye Olori stood nearly six foot tall, had the aura and all the carriage of a queen to be obeyed by her people. She was consort to His Highness, Owa Adeboye Townojoye Arubiefin I, whom she had a daughter with; then became wife by inheritance of his son Oba Gbolagbeye Arubiefin II whom she bore 2 daughters.
She also outlived the late Owa Oba Adegbule Aarojoye Arubiefin III (who died in 1970) for whom
she had a son and a daughter. That goat though...it is what the call 'Eran Agba...". Lol iKid. Pun intended
