The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Abimbola Akeem Owoade, recently revealed a lesser-known side of himself, sparking widespread reactions online.
Once an engineer in Canada before returning to Nigeria to ascend the throne, the monarch was seen casually playing table tennis on the street with locals.
Despite holding one of the most prestigious titles in Yorubaland and Nigeria, Oba Abimbola Akeem Owoade continues to display humility and a strong sense of equality with his people.
This development is just like the Ooni of Ife, who almost lost it all after he unexpectedly met an old friend at an event.
In the clip, the Alaafin of Oyo effortlessly dished out his table tennis skills as he clearly beat his counterpart during the game.
