In a video posted on Sunday, Ayiri Emami emphasized that Timileyin was a princess in both Uvwie and Warri kingdoms. He urged Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State to ensure that the case is thoroughly investigated and not ignored.
Further investigations revealed that the late Timileyin was the daughter of Princess Antonia Emiko, who is the daughter of Olu Erejuwa II and an aunt of the current Olu of Warri.
This makes Timileyin a first cousin of His Majesty, Ogíamè Atuwatsé III CFR, the current Olu of Warri Kingdom. The royal connections of Timileyin add a significant layer to this already tragic incident, intensifying calls for justice.
