The Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, has shared the mockery he endured when his marriage crashed.

According to his Imperial Majesty, when his marriage crashed  many people mocked him and said there was no respect for a king who had no queen.

He further revealed he was sleeping and waking up alone, which pushed him to call on God and asked questions like who did he offend.

The monarch claimed that God assured him to put his mind at rest and fast forward to now, he has Queens everywhere in the palace.

He said, “When my marriage broke and I became single, many people mocked me and said there is no respect for a king that has no queen. I was sleeping and waking up alone. I called on God; I asked questions: who did I offend? I never did evil to anyone. He told me to put my mind at rest. Look at me today. There are queens everywhere in the palace”.

In December 2022,  the second wife of the monarch, Olori Naomi surprised many when she announced the end of her 3-year marriage to the Ooni  on her Instagram page.

Following the crashed marriage, Ooni moved on from her to marry 6 wives: Olori Mariam, Olori Elizabeth Akinmuda, Olori Tobi Phillips, Olori Ashley, Olori Ronke, and Olori Temitope, in the space of three months.
