An Instagram user mistakenly believed to be the new bride of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has cried out that she is not married to the monarch.
The light complexioned woman with the user name Abishine made the declaration in a video clip recorded on Wednesday while celebrating her birthday.
It comes on the day former Olori Wuraola Ogunwusi officially announced that she was no longer married to the 42-year-old accountant turned traditional ruler.
Speculation that Abishine was the new queen began after she posted a picture of herself dressed as royalty on social media.
With Wuraola, who now wishes to be called by her maiden name, Zaynab Otiti Obanor, out of the way, the fun-loving Abishine was quick to dispel further misconception before things get out of hands.
Sources at the Ooni’s palace in Ile-Ife say the new queen is named Bolanle.
It was with her that Oba Adeyeye reportedly found warmth after he ceased to have intimate moments with Olori Wuraola months into their doomed marriage which lasted 17 months.
