Many ladies desirous of marrying the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, might have been duped by fraudsters who gave them assur...
According to Daily Trust, the monarch yesterday cautioned ladies to be careful with fraudsters using his name to deceive them.
One of the victims, who was said to have fallen prey to the antics
of the fraudsters, Miss Elizabeth Odunlami claimed that the monarch
dated and jilted her, but Oba Adeyeye denied any relationship with her.
Elizabeth’s case surfaced following the marriage between the Ooni
and a gospel singer, Prophetess Naomi which spurred reactions on the
social media as to the compatibility of a ‘prophetess’ and the foremost
traditional ruler.
Many ladies were said to have complained that they missed the
opportunity to marry the Ooni and that Naomi was only smart, but the
monarch said he was unaware of these ladies and their desire to be his
wife.
The monarch, through the palace spokesman, Moses Olafare, advised
young ladies to report whoever promised them marriage in his name to the
security agencies immediately.
Olafare said: “While we sympathize with Miss Elizabeth Odunlami
who obviously has become a victim of a fraudulent act perpetrated by a
scammer disguising to be Ooni Ogunwusi, we find it pertinent to debunk
this sacrilegious and unfounded allegation which is not unlikely to be
another calculated ploy adopted by some unprovoked detractors using
psseudo-identities.”
“Members of the public especially ladies are hereby cautioned
against communicating with anyone presenting himself to be the Ooni
Ogunwusi and advised to swiftly report such a matter or person to the
relevant security agencies.”
