Ooni of Ife welcomes baby girl with Olori Oluwatosin
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has announced the birth of a baby girl with his wife, Olori Oluwatosin, a few months after welcoming twin princes with another of his wives, Olori Mariam Ajibola.
The monarch made the announcement on Sunday through a post on his official Facebook page, expressing gratitude to God for the safe delivery and confirming that both mother and daughter are in good health.
Sharing the news, the Ooni congratulated the House of Oduduwa on the arrival of the royal princess and prayed for God’s guidance and blessings upon the child.
“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 monarch wrote.
The birth comes months after the Ooni announced the arrival of twin princes through Olori Mariam Ajibola, also describing their birth as a blessing and thanking God for their safe delivery.
Following the end of his marriage to Olori Naomi, the traditional ruler married several wives in 2022, explaining on a later occasion that the decision was influenced by the customs and traditional heritage of the ancient throne of Ile-Ife.
