The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, on Friday joined family members and friends to celebrate the graduation of his former wife, Prophetess Naomi Silekunola, at Elizade University, Ondo State.
Gospel musician Dare Justified announced the monarch’s presence in an Instagram post on Friday, stating that the convocation ceremony took place in Akure.
He described the occasion as another remarkable achievement for the former queen and expressed hope that the milestone would lead to greater opportunities in her life.
Ahead of the ceremony, Silekunola revealed that she returned to take the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board examination after more than 10 years to gain admission into Elizade University, located in Ilara-Mokin.
She also spoke about the challenge of balancing motherhood with her academic responsibilities, noting that she combined both while undertaking four years of full-time studies.
