Controversial female journalist and daughter of late former Second Republic governor of Oyo State, Dr Victor Omololu Olunloyo, Kemi Olunloyo, has publicly disowned her father.
Kemi distanced herself from the Olunloyo family after her father's death on Sunday, April 6, 2025.
Announcing her decision on the matter on her Facebook page on Wednesday, Kemi said she was no longer part of the family and would not be accepting condolences over her father’s passing.
Speaking on her strained relationship with her late father, Kemi revealed deep-seated grudges within the family.
Her words, “I am uploading video statements on my father’s death on TikTok. I am NOT part of the Olunloyo family anymore, and I told you in 2024 that I would never return to Nigeria, even if my parents died.
“My father, Victor Omololu Olunloyo is two different people. He was one person to the world; he was another person to the family. My father destroyed our family unit; my father tortured us as kids. He tortured us emotionally and physically. My father ruined the family unit.
“My father marketed me as his favourite daughter and child to the world; he also marketed himself to me as that. But I was far from being his favourite. My father used me for a lot of things. My father did a lot for all of us. When I said used me, he took advantage of my own positive energies.
“My father was into ‘juju’ heavily. My father was into occult practices and I called my father out on his 80th birthday. After I called him out, he went to Pastor, pEA, Adeboye that he wanted to become born-again and he did.
“I have forgiven my Dad for everything he did,” adding however, that "You don’t know what’s going on in my family and I don’t know what’s going on in your family.”
She attributed much of the family’s turmoil to the relationship between her father and one Ronke Sonaike, who later became Aderonke Omololu Olunloyo, claiming that when Ronke became pregnant with her father’s child, it created a rift within the family.
According to her, “My mother married an intellectual, a man who got his Ph.D. at 26 years old. And he turned into a polygamist. Not that polygamists are not good, but the way it happened to my family.
“When Ronke came into our family, my father started all manners of occult things. It’s too long. It’s too painful.

“I know that I’m special and I know what God brought me here for. They wanted to kill my story but they didn’t but they killed Tayo; they killed my brother’s child. My brother that died at 51 who was in the ‘Ali Must Go’ car with me;
“Remember he lost about half of his brain and was paralyzed for 43 years and lived with seizures and no livelihood. Tayo was buried after he died in 2021. Tayo would have been a great mathematician. They ruined his destiny...
“Towards the end of Daddy’s life, nobody had access to him after the 2021 stroke. They couldn’t talk to Daddy on the phone because Ronke did not give anybody access.”
She said her father’s actions ruined her brother’s potential.
She further claimed that her stepmother restricted family access to Dr. Olunloyo, making it difficult for anyone to communicate with him during his last moments.
