Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi has taken a new wife amid reports that his marriage to Queen Silenkunola Naomi has hit rock bottom.

The monarch’s new queen, identified as Mariam Anako-Ogunwusi, an oil and gas guru, was welcomed to his palace on Tuesday night, September 6 and it was learnt that the arrangements started in March.
The wedding ceremony took place 10 months after queen Naomi Silekunola, the last wife of the monarch allegedly left him. The new queen, from Ebira, Kogi state, is said to be a top executive in an Oil and Gas company.
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 Zaynab-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.
