Against certain unfounded and ill-fated rumours making the rounds even far outside the shores of Nigeria which has culminated into influx of calls to DE VOICE Office wishing to confirm the story concerning the Life and Health of His Royal Majesty, MITO, De Wheno Aholu Menu-Toyi, the First, the Akran of Badagry Kingdom, DE VOICE uses this medium to authoritatively inform well-meaning Badagrians home and abroad that their Royal Father is alive, hale and hearty.DE VOICE also appeals to well-meaning Badagry to keep their cool since there is no cause for alarm.
This is coming from authentic information gathered by DE VOICE from Oba Akran's Family and Palace sources that HRM, Oba Akran is alive, hale and hearty. DE VOICE confirms that Oba Akran in a few days ago presided over the enlarged Akran family meeting which was attended by all descendants of Akran Gbafoe and held in the Akran's Palace in Ganyinko Compound, Jegba Quarters, Badagry.
This was further corroborated by comments on the facebook timeline of Prince Dayo Seyon Akran of one the descendants of Akran Gbafoe.
According to Prince Akran, "The entire descendants of His Majesty(De Wheno Aholu) AKRAN GBAFOE, by divine providence had a family of the dynasty successfully and it was eminently presided over by our MITO, His Royal Majesty, De Wheno Aholu Menu Toyi 1,OFR,LLD,D.LITT.,JP,The Akran of Badagry Kingdom. I wish to announce that the reigning OBA AKRAN is well, alive and performing his functions as a Royal Diadem...To the wicked ones who carry rumour around, passing sad news against their fathers will be totally destroyed and they will also die.."
