Shockwaves are reverberating across Yorùbáland and the global Yorùbá diaspora following the sudden death of the Baba Ọba (King’s Father) of the famed Oyotunji African Village in South Carolina, USA. The late Baba Ọba, Lukman Arohunfale, a revered socialite and traditionalist, passed away under circumstances already sparking fierce controversy. His death comes just days after he publicly accused the newly installed Alaafin of Oyo, His Imperial Majesty Oba Akeem Adéyẹmọ Owoade, of allegedly ordering his courtiers to beat him mercilessly during a recent courtesy visit to the Oyo palace in Nigeria. In a widely circulated voice recording, the deceased recounted how what was meant to be a simple homage turned violent. Although the Baba Ọba had reportedly battled ill health in the past year, growing insinuations suggest that the alleged physical assault may have aggravated his condition, ultimately leading to his untimely death. The palace in Oyo recently denied that s...
I Married A Man In Suit, Now He Is Always In Parachute Agbada – Ex-Governor Amosun’s Wife Spills (photos)
Olufunsho Amosun, the wife of Ibikunle Amosun, an ex-governer of Ogun state, has revealed how much her husband has since they got married over thirty years ago.
Reflecting on how she married him and how much he has changed in 30 years, the former first lady shared throwback photos from their wedding of him in a suit and recent photos of them where Ibikunle Amosun had Agabadas on.
Olufunsho Amosun wrote “What I ‘ordered’ vs What I got. How it started vs How it’s going
Over thirty years ago I married a charming corporate suit dresser of a guy, a qualified chartered accountant, with a flourishing accounting firm of his own – not bad huh☺️
Today I’m blessed with a selfless satellite dish capped man, constantly dressed in parachute agbada, who applies his professional skills with integrity to everything under his purview.
Some things however never change, what got me then, and still has me going now, is this man’s unparalleled faith and trust in God and his total commitment to the welfare of mankind.” She concluded.
Esabod Global News recalls that in 2021, the former Ogun State Governor Mr. Ibikunle Amosun and his wife Olufunso celebrated 30 years of staying married.
The governor whose first daughter, Ayomide married Oladipupo Dabiri (son of Abike Dabiri) celebrated the special day with his wife in Lagos with family and friends in attendance.
They are blessed with five children.
Amsosun is one of the rare husbands many women pray for.
In 2018 during a meeting in Abeokuta with party members, he revealed that he has never slept with any woman but his wife, Olufunso since they married.
In a veil reference to his political rivals, the governor said: “They gather some people, sit in one corner and write rubbish, thinking that such will shake me, I don’t lose sleep over such things.
I do not have extra marital affair since I got married. How can I engage myself with unscrupulous things? I have called my children and told them not to bother themselves with any rubbish that might be published about me, because as a governor, I cannot have any private life again and I warned them to be careful of their actions and inactions.
“Thank God, my children are all matured. They understand what is happening. They are not bothered at all. “My wife even challenged me that she heard that somebody gave birth to twins for me. I told her that there was nothing like that. I told her not to bother herself on the matter because there was no iota of truth on the matter,” he told the large audience, including traditional rulers. He added: “I do not have plan of marrying another wife now. That is not part of my plan now. One wife is even a problem.
When I am 70 years old, I can then marry another wife, because I and my wife must have grown old and we will need a younger woman who can take good care of us.”
