Ooni Of Ife plans another wedding after 24 hours taking a new bride

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, has reportedly concluded plans to take another bride as a second wife barely 24 hours after taking in a new bride, Mariam Anako.

On Tuesday evening, September 6, Mariam Anako was ushered into the Palace of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi

The new wife was ushered into the Ile Ife palace after brief rites at the entrance to the premises.

She was thereafter led into the inner court of the palace to meet her husband and other guests waiting to receive her.

The new Ife bride is said to be an oil and gas mogul who comes from an influential family in Kogi state.

It was gathered that arrangements for the Ooni to take a new wife had started in March when the king sent delegates to Anako’s family to request her hand in marriage.

However, LEADERSHIP said it gathered that a team of Chiefs from the Palace in Ile-Ife, Osun State on Wednesday visited the family of another bride-to-be, Dr Elizabeth Opeoluwa Akinmuda, in the Magodo area of Lagos State.

According to sources close to the palace, Miss Akinmuda is a Scotland-based Electronic Data Processor and a native of Ondo City in Ondo State.

It will be recalled that before now, the monarch had at different times parted ways with two wives – Olori Zainab and Olori Naomi, respectively.
