The Ooni of Ife Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi is celebrating his beautiful daughter, Adewamiwa, who turns 18 today, April 21st.
He took to his Instagram page to share photos of the celebrant and penned a sweet note to her. He expressed bewilderment at how fast she had reached a beautiful milestone and affirmed his love for her.
The monarch further expressed his pride in the woman she was becoming and prayed for God’s blessings on her.
“Adewamiwa is 18 today! Just like that, you’ve reached this beautiful milestone. I’m so proud of the young woman you’re becoming. May God’s blessings and protection surround you today and always.
With all my love, Daddy”.
A year back, while celebrating his first daughter’s birthday, the Ooni had made a demand to her as she turned 30. The monarch expressed his gratitude for her fulfilling life and demanded she bring him a husband.
The Ooni is a proud father of five. Princess Adeola is first child from his teenage years. He has a son with his estranged queen, Naomi Silekunola.
In 2022, the Yoruba monarch surprised many as he publicly celebrated the first birthday of a daughter he welcomed with one of his concubines. His estranged wife, Queen Naomi Silekunola revealed that the monarch had other women in the palace, and the Ooni had proven it to be true as he celebrated his daughter in style, likening her to his late mother.
In March, last year, the Ooni announced the birth of his twins with his third wife Olori Tobi Phillips and expressed gratitude to his creator.
Some months later, he also announced that he had welcomed a son with his fourth wife, Queen Ashley.
The King is married to six wives: Olori Mariam, Olori Elizabeth Akinmuda, Olori Tobi Phillips, Olori Ashley, Olori Ronke, and Olori Temitope.
While marking his 48th birthday and seventh coronation anniversary, Ooni clarified why he married Mariam Anako and the others, explaining that he tried making some changes but he couldn’t because of the traditional heritage of Ile Ife.
