Contrary to the erroneous thought of many that Wuraola Otiti, the former wife of Ooni of Ife is entangled to the custom of Yoruba land that believes no man can marry an ex queen has been resolved as Benin Elders returned her Bride Price.
The Ooni of Ife few days ago received special visitors from Benin city Edo state.
However, family elders of former Queen Wuraola Otiti returned the bride price Oba Ogunwusi paid on her last year.
According to eyewitnesses, although the king was a bit reluctant but with much persuasion he accepted the bride price refund.
The monarch was quoted to have said “She’s free now, she’s free”.
The marriage contracted in March 2016 hits the rock few last month over allegation of infidelity on the part of the former Queen.
The coast is clear for her now, she can remarry if she wishes.
What do you think?

ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing the elders of Benin applied wisdom and diplomacy in resolving the havoc... But is it not high time such barbaric tradition be abolished? in this jet time we are, assuming she doesn't have people to stand in for her will she have remained unmarried for life?
ReplyDeleteBearing in mind she is still young and active, what will have been her faith?
I think such tradition should be seen to, to avoid same, similar occurrence.
