    Details of her death were still sketchy as of the time of filing this report, but the Director of Media and Publicity at the Alaafin Palace, Mr Bode Durojaye, confirmed it on Saturday morning, 2 July, Punch reports.

    He said, “She died in the United States of America. I will give you the details later.”
