The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, has reacted to the declaration of his estranged wife, Olori Wuraola, that she was out of the marriage for good.
Speaking through his aides, the revered king made it known that he would talk on his crashed marriage to Olori Wuraola at the appropriate time.
The Ooni’s Director of Media, Mr. Moses Olafare, disclosed that the palace is aware of all that have been written and that there would be a response from the royal father soon.
Speaking to Nigerian Tribune he said, “In this era of social media, where people have free access to internet, as constitutionally permitted by laws of the land, people can say anything.
“Inspite of all being said on the issue, decorum still requires that we in the House of Oduduwa maintains silence, at least for now. This is because marriage is strictly a private matter that should not subjected to undue public uproar. When it is necessary for us to talk, we will surely talk on the issue.”
After denials from the palace and from an aide of the king on August 15, that the marriage was intact and the couple still happily married, Olori Wuraola took to her Instagram handle on Wednesday August 30, 2017, that there is indeed a collapse.
Urging women to take a walk out of troubled marriages, the beautiful Olori also said in her statement:
“What I can confirm, is that the Ooni and I are no more. I inhale love & exhale gratitude. My journey continues as a Humanitarian aiding women and victims of domestic violence & abuse with the United Nations. No matter how much time you’ve invested, no matter the use of media to silence & manipulate, no matter the circumstance, slander, embarrassment, threats and lies: Get out and seek immediate help!”
