NEWSWhy my marriage with Ooni of Ife crashed – Queen Wuraola speaks out

The wife of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Queen of Ife, Olori Wuraola, has spoken about the reported breakup of their marriage, admitting that she is no longer with her Oba Adeyeye.

The ‘Queen’ had remained quiet ever since the news of the crash of the marriage hit the social media, but has now come out to debunk the news of her alleged infidelity, saying it was falsehood perpetrated by some persons.

Queen Wuraola, who has now changed her name to Zainab on her social media, confirmed in a post she shared on her Instagram handle that her marriage to the monarch is officially over but failed to give reasons for the breakup.

She, however, hinted that possible domestic violence could be responsible, also advising people against spreading false information about the situation.

Wuraola described her relationship with the Ooni of Ife as an old chapter, and tagged her new status ”a new chapter” aims at fighting boldly and fearlessly for the rights of women.

According to the queen, “What I can confirm is that the Ooni and I are no more. I inhale love & exhale gratitude. My journey continues as a Humanitarian aiding women and victims of domestic violence & abuse with the United Nations. No matter how much time you’ve invested, no matter the use of media to silence & manipulate, no matter the circumstance, slander, embarrassment, threats and lies: Get out and seek immediate help!

“We have got to stop this culture of shaming and vilifying women with false stories of infidelity & nefarious behavior. The spreading of false information (through “sources” afraid to be identified) is the mark of cowards and a cover up for guilty parties to justify their horrific actions. There is absolutely no truth to the media circulated lies of infidelity and infertility- on my end.

“We’ve seen this movie before. Women being dragged in the press & blamed for everything under the sun. This behavior is unacceptable. I urge those involved to be mindful of their actions for the eyes of our Almighty God are always watching. The seeds of slander is a cancer that harvests to eat away the souls of the planter.

“The throne is sacred and the attempts to tarnish the name of a Queen, in defense or on behalf of a silent King makes all involved look terrible. Remain dignified in all you do. It’s not the end of the world, but the start of a new chapter and you must turn the page with grace. The world is watching.

“As I bid adieu to this chapter, my wish to you all is to step into your lives – boldly & fearlessly, the way God intended and live not just by words, but through example. The best chapter in our lives is the one we are writing now. Thank you for your love and support.

Fayose: Buhari has lost touch with Nigeria’s economic realities

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has taken another swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari saying his latest comment that he was pleased with Nigeria’s economy shows he has lost touch with the economic realities in the country.

The president had recently while receiving a briefing from the Minister of Budget and National Planning, Udoma Udoma; the Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun, and the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele said he was pleased with the records made so far in the economy.

But in a statement issued on Wednesday, by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Governor Fayose said it
was obvious that President Buhari’s close to three months stay in London ‘had taken its toll on his mind.’

Governor Fayose, who said the economic growth of a nation can only be measured by the welfare of the people, said the president ought not to have made the statement.

“How can a President who has spent more time abroad than he spent in Nigeria be telling Nigerians that he is satisfied with the sufferings of the people? It
is like the President endorsing the sufferings of Nigerians and this is painful,” Mr Fayose said.

“That President Buhari, who met exchange rate at N197 to $1 said that he is pleased with the economy when the exchange rate is now N370 to $1 is a clear indication that the government is being run on his behalf.

“The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), in its unemployment report for the fourth quarter (Q4) 2016 said 3.67 million Nigerians became jobless in one year and that the number of unemployed Nigerians rose from 7.51 million at the beginning of October 2015 to 11.19 million at the end of September 2016.

“The same NBS, said in its June 2015 to May 2016 National Corruption Report, that over N400 billion was paid as bribes to public officials in Nigeria in one year (June 2015 – May 2016). Yet, they will tell Nigerians that they are fighting corruption when indeed, corruption is thriving under the All Progressives Congress (APC) government of President Buhari,” the governor, a known critic of Mr Buhari said.
