The marriage of Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II and Queen Wuraola-Zynab Ogunwusi has allegedly crashed.
According to thecapital.ng:
“*Why Olori Wuraola Ran To Obasanjo For Quick Intervention.
Alas, one year down the line, the marriage has crashed irretrievably. The well-celebrated marriage has run its full course. While it lasted, they had no child.
Inside sources described the marriage as a sham, plagued by suspicion, hatred and devoid of love; they accused Olori of many unpublishable things and lack of commitment to her marital vows. Even as you read she is not on talking terms with her in-laws. The allegations are as wide as they are wild.
Back then when Olori Wuraola held sway, she had the world at her feet; she got her wishes at the snap of a finger and she literally ruled the royal household. Wherever he went, she was constantly by his side. She basked in the stratospheric adulation that came with being the apple of the Ooni’s eyes. Pray, who wouldn’t?
Unfortunately, things have changed and many within the palace now snigger and sneer at her for losing her position as the queen to one of the most powerful Monarchs in Africa.
Curiously, however, on arrival from a trip recently, Olori Wuraola scurried to the home of former President Olusegun Obasanjo to intervene and probably advise her husband not to be influenced to dump her like a bad habit and get another wife. Both have since gone their separate ways perhaps ruing what was and what could have been.”

This is my Conspiracy Theory!!!
ReplyDeleteThis doesn't come as a surprise to me. This was a marriage of convenience for the Ooni and the Yoruba race. The marriage was supposed to be a psychological "defeat" or "subjugation"of the Benin Empire as at the time of the wedding, information was making the rounds in the media that the Oba of Benin was superior in ancestry than the Ooni of Ife. In order to douse the flame, a marriage alliance was quickly arranged to create the impression of unity of the two kingdoms and make the rivalry simply vanish from public view. It worked so well.
Now that the flame has been doused, the queen of Benin extraction is no longer needed. It is time to look for a "proper Yoruba woman"to occupy the position of wife and queen to the Ooni of Ife, A Yoruba Monarch.
Queen Wuraola-Zynab Ogunwusi was never really wanted by the Ooni's family nor his race.
As I said, this is my Conspiracy Theory!!!
tor see the effects of arrange marriage, it never turns out good.
ReplyDeleteSadly ever after.
