Ooni of Ife set to marry two more wives, weeks after taking a second wife

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, is set to marry two more wives, weeks after he married his second wife, Olori Elizabeth Opeoluwa Akinmuda.

The monarch and Akinmuda got married early September in Magodo, Lagos just hours after he married his first wife, Queen Mariam Anako.

According to reports, he will be marrying Tobi Phillips and Ashley Adegoke before his 48th birthday this October.

Tobi Phillips is said to be a graduate of Marine Science from the University of Lagos and a former Beauty Queen, while Queen Ashley is a chartered accountant and currently runs an NGO that caters to less privileged kids and widows through the Ashley Adegoke Foundation.

She has a Masters in Accounting and Finance from the University of Greenwich, and currently runs her businesses in the United Kingdom.

Prior to his coronation, the Ooni was previously married to Adebukola Bombata in 2008 but the marriage failed. After being coronated, Ooni married Edo-born Zainab-Otiti Obanor in 2016 but the union lasted for 17 months before their separation.

Ooni then married Silekunola in 2018 and the marriage produced a son before the divorce announcement in December.
