Famed to be one of the most heroic women that ever lived, Moremi’s selfless sacrifice helped with the preservation of the Yoruba tribe. This easily explains why 1700 years after she lived, Patty Chidiac-Mastrogiannis, and Princess Ronke Ademiluyi, the global heritage ambassador of Queen Moremi Ajasoro legacy came together to bring Moremi back to life.
