Ooni, wife Mariam welcome twin boys
Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife, and Mariam Ajibola, one of his wives, have welcomed a set of twin boys together.
The monarch announced the birth of his children via a recent Instagram post, expressing gratitude to God for the new additions to his family.
Ogunwusi also revealed that the mother and the children are “in good health”.
“To God be all the glory and adoration for his wondrous works and abundant blessings once again,” the traditional ruler wrote.
“Warmest congratulations to the entire house of Oduduwa and to Olori Mariam Ajibola on the joyous arrival of a prince and a prince to the royal throne of Oduduwa. We give thanks to Almighty God as both mother and the children are in good health.”
Mariam tied the knot with the Ooni in 2022, a few months after his marriage to ex-wife Silekunola Naomi crashed.
She is said to be number two among the wives of the monarch. The other wives include Folashade Ashley Adegoke, Elizabeth Akinmuda, Temitope Adesegun, and Ronke Ademiluyi.
The Ooni was previously in three failed marriages. He married Adebukola Bombata in 2008 but the marriage crashed.
The monarch’s marriage to Zaynab Wuraola Otiti in 2016 also failed due to irreconcilable differences.
