I seriously doubt the part in bold.

Are you suspecting that he was your junior in Primary School?

Baba Kekere has served 3 Alaafins. His duty is to run errands for the king. He served :

1. Oba Adeniran Adeyemi II, Lamidis father between 1945 & 1956.

2. Oba Gbadegesin Ladigbolu II between 1956 & 1968 and

3. Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III, between 1970 &
2022.

He walks briskly in and around the Alaafin of Oyo palace. He is very popular not only because of his diminutive figure but because of his humility and he does not get angry.

Some call him a man with repository of knowledge of the Palace for he has the history off hand and some call him the Palace library or an archive.

He is called Baba Kekere possibly because of his height. His age is unknown because his birth was not recorded but it is assumed that he should be over 100 years now.

His real name is Morenikeji Lasisi.

~African History Archive
These are the type of people we should celebrate. Not a hoe who will just bring a vagina to the palace and start getting Queen's treatment.


Baba should be gifted a mansion and placed on 250k salary for LIFE!
The Oyo State government should sponsor that.

Someone should go a write a biography from him on his knowledge about Oyo culture and the Palace before he dies.


As Africans, we should learn to value history.
