Olori Tobi Phillips, the third wife of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has disclosed why she agreed to be the monarch’s third wife.
Speaking in a recent interview with TVC, she said: “Someone called me one day and said, “Do you want to get married? And he asked if I wanted to get married to the Ooni.
He introduced me to the Ooni. At first, I didn’t take it seriously because I was like, ‘what’s going on’.
Then we met and started dating, but there was so many interference and we didn’t get married. That was quite devastating.
I always promised myself that I will marry someone that I love. There are values that I love in a man and the Ooni has that’s why I later agreed to marry him.”
