Ooni of Ile-Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, on Sunday, announced the birth of a baby princess with his wife, Olori Oluwatosin, barely three months after welcoming twin princes with another wife, Olori Mariam Ajibola.
Oba Ogunwusi announced the development in a post shared on his official Facebook page on Sunday.
The monarch expressed gratitude to God for the safe delivery and confirmed that both mother and child are in good health.
Ooni wrote, “To God Almighty be all the glory for his unfailing grace and the precious gift of new life.
“Hearty congratulations to the entire House of Oduduwa for the blessed arrival of a Royal Princess through Olori Oluwatosin.
“May the Almighty preserve this divine gift and cause her to flourish in wisdom, grace, and honour.
“We are pleased to share that both Olori Oluwatosin and the Royal Princess are in excellent health.”
The new-born princess is coming in to the royal family a few months after the monarch announced the birth of twin princes with Olori Mariam Ajibola.
Ooni also shared the news on his Facebook page in May, thanking God for the birth of the twins and saying both the mother and the children were in good health.
Following the monarch’s failed marriage to Olori Naomi, Oba Ogunwusi moved on from her to marry six wives in the space of three months.
The new Oloris are; Mariam Anako, September 6, 2022; Elizabeth Akinmudai; Tobiloba Philips, October 9, 2022, Ashley Adegoke, October 14, 2022, Ronke Ademiluyi, October 20, 2022, and the sixth, Temitope Adesegun, on Monday, October 24, 2022.
During his 48th birthday and seventh coronation anniversary, the monarch explained the rationale behind his multiple marriage to Mariam Anako and the others, saying he tried to make some changes but couldn’t due to the traditional heritage of the source of the Yoruba race.
