‘Marriage Is Not What I Want To Do Right Away’ Ooni Of Ife Reacted To Rumor Of Marrying Tope Adesegun
A news was recently published about the Ooni of Ife who was alleged to have found a new lover after he divorced Wuraola Ogunwusi (now Zaynab-Otiti Obanor).
Reacting to the social media chatter that the monarch has quietly married Adesegun, his palace said it is a farce.
“Ooni’s marriage cannot be done secretly,” Jide Fadairo, a prince and CEO, House of Oduduwa Foundation, said in a statement made available to TheCable Lifestyle.
“It involves not only the Royal family, it involves Yoruba custom and a lot of elders and our tradition are to be taken into cognisance. Please dismiss the story, it is another fake news.”
Fadairo said the monarch is preoccupied with the renaissance of Yoruba culture and promotion of the race’s customs and traditions globally.
According to him, Ogunwusi will not rush into taking a new wife.
“That’s not on His Imperial Majesty’s mind. Marriage is not something he wants to do right away,” said Fadairo, husband of the monarch’s sister.
“Many names have been bandied around but I can tell you they are all false, just like this case.”
Ogunwunsi is the 51st monarch to ascend the prestigious Ile-Ife throne.
