Everything began in September 2022, when the Ooni of Ife welcomed an Ebira-born queen, Mariam Anako, to his Ile Ife palace—nine months after Prophetess Seyi Naomi declared her divorce on Instagram. He has since married six more ladies in three weeks after welcome Mariam.

In September, the monarch married Mariam Anako and Dr. Elizabeth Akinmuda.

He wedded Queen Tobi Phillips, Queen Ashley, and Queen Ronke Ademiluyi in October.

His sixth wife would be Princess Temitope Adesegun.

While celebrating his 48th birthday and seventh coronation anniversary, the Ooni has finally explained why he wedded Mariam Anako and others.

The Ooni indicated that he attempted to make certain alterations but was unable to do so. Perhaps alluding to his decision to have just one queen and concubines, the king declared of Ile Ife’s traditional history, “This institution is larger than me, beyond me.” There are about 800 people in this mansion, over a thousand.
