The 2 last pieces in the jigsaw have now been confirmed. They are Princess Aderonke Ademiluyi of the AFWL fame and Ms. Temitope Adesegun. With the addition of these 2 the target of 6 has now been met! Congratulations are in order!
SEE THE PARADE OF THE ACTUAL, FULLY CONFIRMED 6 OLORIS & THEIR DATES OF CEREMONIES & SHORT PROFILES.
Our last release of a few days back caused a whole lot of ruckus. Which made many run to helter-skelter, with a particular person amongst the probables mentioned running to quickly debunk that she’s not joining any harem, but thank God in her post that she didn’t deny flat out (outrightly) her (friendship) with his imperial majesty.
Like we had said in that write up then, we stated quite clearly that they were ‘probables’ as there were very many in a pool, and not actuals, but we have now confirmed for sure the 2 remaining incoming that would hit the target of 6 for the bulging royal harem, which would be the whole number for atleast 2022.
We have 3 ceremonies already done and dusted, who are now the wives of the source, married to a living god, as the Oonirisa Adimula is the 401st gods amongst the gods of the Yorubas but the only living god amongst the lot.
The 1st official wife been “Olori Mariam Ajibola Ogunwusi”. Who may actually be the face of the face of the palace. Hers was done since September and her wedding reception is the one slated for this weekend, Sunday, October 16, 2022. Some have tagged her as the senior wife and maybe the numero uno. But from what we have learnt, there’s actually no seniority at all, as the wives are wives. The wives are all expected to comport themselves as wives worthy of the stool of the calibre of that of the Arole Odua, the Oonirisa.
Olori Mariam was until her marriage, a top management executive at Nestoil, the largest EPCC service provider for IOCs in Sub-saharan Africa, owned by one of Nigeria’s wealthiest men (billionaire) from the South East (Anambra) in the person of ‘Ernest Nnaemeka Azudialu Obiejesi’.
Olori (Dr.) Opeoluwa Elizabeth Ogunwusi’s own ceremony followed in quick succession to that of Olori Mariam, as her own wedding rites were performed just hours after Olori Mariam’s own. For the fair complexioned Scotland returnee, hers took place in Lagos at her parents Magodo residence.
She is acclaimed to be a successful IT executive based in Glasgow, Scotland.
For the 32 year old Olori Tobi Ogunwusi nee Phillips, hers was the most recent. Infact as recent as Sunday, October 9, 2022 and it was an understated fanfare that heralded it.
Olori (Queen) Tobi, a former model and beauty queen many times over, is a 3D artist and a fashion designer with her own eponymous label- ‘QTP Luxury Fashion’ based in the Lekki area of Lagos.
The next ceremony that would follow would be that of ‘princess Ashley Afolashade Folakemi Adegoke. Whose own is for Friday, October 14, 2022. Much as the London returnee would have loved to throw a ‘humongous party’ that would have dazzled all comers, she would have to make do with the restrained one, she’s going to have on Friday, as the main party that others own cannot or must not diminish is set for Sunday, October 16, 2022.
Ashley Afolashade is a UK based entrepreneur which owns a coffee franchise and a philanthropist, with a foundation named in memory of her late dad Prince Adegoke.
Monday, October 17, 2022 is the monarch’s 48th birthday, so it’s expected that visitors from all over would still converge on the palace to congratulate him, it’s a double celebration also as his conferment with a national honour would also be acknowledged.
3 days after this birthday on the 17th which is 4 days after the mother of all receptions for Olori Mariam, on Thursday, October 20, 2022 would be the turn of Princess Aderonke Ademiluyi. She’s a princess of the source as her great-grandfather was also an Ooni- Ademiluyi Ajagun. Princess Ronke is a lawyer and the founder of Africa Fashion Week London (AFWL) which is 11 years old and just held in London and Africa Fashion Week Nigeria (AFWN), which recently held at Eko Hotel in September. The very gorgeous, mother of 1, is also in charge of the Queen Moremi Initiative and also the global ambassador and the founder of the Adire Odua. She’s currently in London as we speak as her annual fashion showcase just ended.
4 days thereafter, would be the turn of highly cerebral Ms.Temitope Adesegun, the former PA to the now late Secretary to the State Government during the administration of action Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola in the person of Princess Aderenle Adeniran-Ogunsanya, who passed on in January of 2022 at age 74. Of all the queens (oloris), Ms. Temitope has the most intimidating & most staggering resume. She’s an ‘alumna’ of such prestigious institutions likes of Oxford, Cambridge, INSEAD Fointanebleu & Harvard Boston. Having 1st gotten her diplomas and then her Bachelor’s from the University of Lagos.
Temitope Adesegun would be undergoing her 2nd missionary journey in marriage with the Oonirisa, as she had been married before till about 2017 or thereabout. She’s had extensive work experience in both the public and private sector and is a director of the Hope Alive Initiative of the Ooni. She’s a gorgeous beauty with brain and a fashionista too.
After these 6, there would be a pause, either for now or till further notice.
Anyone outside these 6 official wives (oloris) are just mere sidechiks, who may just be mingling intimately with the palace, until maybe a further change of mind that could extend to their status and elevate their positions from sidechiks to wives of his imperial majesty.
For the last 2 names mentioned it has been a story of humility and perseverance, both have never needed to jostle to be noted.
So all things being equal, October 20 and 24, 2022 are the d-days for 2 royal weddings of Ile-Ife for wives of his imperial majesty.
Congratulations in advance.
