At least ten princes have been shortlisted for the throne for the vacant stool of the Alaafin of Oyo by the Oyomesi, the traditional council in the ancient town.

The position of the Alaafin became vacant as a result of the transition of the 45th Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi.

About 119 princes had indicated interest  in occupying the stool of Alaafin but many were disqualified.

Director of Media and Publicity to the Alaafin of Oyo, Bode Durojaiye, made this disclosure via a statement.

Whoever emerges among the shortlisted aspirants will be the candidate and the next Alaafin of Oyo.

“The state government is not only aware but carried along in all our proceedings before, during and after the interview period.

“The state government is ably represented by the Chairperson of the Atiba Local Government and some officials of the council”, he said.
