Ooni of Ife’s fourth wife, Olori Folashade Ashley Ogunwusi, has explained why she tagged her newborn son the ‘Crown Prince’.
Naija News reports that Folashade and the Ooni, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, recently welcomed their first child.
While announcing the birth of her baby on social media, the monarch’s wife referred to him as ‘Crown Prince.’
However, some followers and social media users felt the statement was inappropriate because Ooni already had two sons before hers, Tadenikawo, born by his first estranged wife, Olori Naomi and Oreade, the twin boy born by Olori Tobi Philips.
Clarifying the controversial statement, Folashade, in a post via her Instagram page on Tuesday, wrote, “Oba tón gbọ ẹkún aládúrà, ẹsẹ Olódùmarè. Thank you olodumare for an amazing pregnancy journey which was very sacred for my husband and I, which was successfully kept away from society space to the glory of Olodumare.
“To my ever loving supportive husband who has stood by me throughout this journey, in every step of the way, from start to finish with daily prayers @ooniadimulaife you are my world, my CROWN JEWEL, Erujeje Adimula Oko Mi, Ikoyi Esho Mi. Nothing compares to your love for me and I love you till forever and with every fibre of my being, Ese Modupe Oko Mi.
“I’m thankful to my big sister @ronkegiftobinna for being there for me and for constantly keeping my handle busy with old pictures, old videos, and engagements with loved ones and friends just to kill all curiosity. To my amazing PA @obanewo_ thank you for holding every handle down for me during the last 9months of grooming our prestigious CROWN PRINCE from both side of his parents @ooniadimulaife “A Prince from Mother side of Ooni Adagba Royal compound of Lafogido ruling House and A Prince from Father side of Ooni Agbedegbede Royal compound of Giesi ruling House combined to the royal throne of Oduduwa” #Otisese
“As a MOTHER call forth and speak life to your children, call them what you want for them and what you want for them to be, let your children know who they are in this world and what they were born and destined to be without prejudice, It is your duty and your right to do so as a MOTHER. Ẹnu ẹ laṣẹ wa, use it on your Children, DO NOT APOLOGISE for speaking life to your seeds to germinate and produce fruit. DO NOT be pressured by no one or no man.”
