With profound sorrow, we announce the passing of Chief Mrs. Alaba Lawson, Iyalode of Yorubaland, at the age of 72.

Chief Mrs. Lawson was an accomplished woman who dedicated her life to her people, her family, and her country. She will be remembered for her immense contributions to the advancement of the Yoruba people and culture.

May her memory continue to inspire us all to serve our people with the same grace and dignity that she showed throughout her life.
