PHOTOS/VIDEO: Ooni Of Ife Marries 6th Wife

Ooni of Ife married his 6th wife today.

 

Glamtush reports that barely one week after the traditional ruler of the Yoruba Kingdom, Ile-Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife, got married to his fifth wife, the king has married another bride, Princess Temitope Adesegun on Monday, October 24.
This online platform understands that Princess Temitope Adesegun, who became the Number six wife of the highly revered monarch has been in his life before he married prophetess Naomi.
Recall that the Ooni, in September 2022, welcomed Queen Mariam nee Anako, into the palace amidst pomp. Then, Olori Elizabeth Opeoluwa Ogunwusi nee Akinmuda was also betrothed to the king a few days later in Magodo, Lagos.

On October 9, he married Queen Tobi Phillips as his third wife. Queen Ashley became his fourth queen on October 16, while  Queen Ronke Ademiluyi wedded him on October 20.

Despite the back-to-back weddings, the Ooni is still attending major events in Lagos with his Yeyeluwa, Mariam Ogunwusi.

The marriage ceremony between the Ogunwusi and Adesegun families was quite elaborate and had in attendance lots of dignitaries.

With an intimidating resume, former Princess Adesegun is a certified alumnus of several universities, including the University of Oxford, United Kingdom; INSEAD Business School, Fontainebleau, France; University of Cambridge, Judge Business School, United Kingdom; and Harvard Kennedy School of Government in the United States.

She is a princess from Adesegun Ibipe Royal Dynasty of Ago-Iwoye in Ijebu North Local Government Area of Ogun State.

The new queen is a former TV Presenter of  ‘Health-Wise’ a public health advocacy programme of the Lagos State Ministry of Health under Governor Raji Fasola which was aired for four years.

She worked as the Personal Assistant to the late Secretary to the State Government, Princess Aderenle Adeniran-Ogunsanya during the Babatunde Raji Fashola-led administration.

 

Adesegun was once married but divorced. She is actually based in Lagos and a director of Hope Alive Initiative Poverty Alleviation Advocacy which is powered by the House of Odua inspired by the Ooni.
