The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has a special request concerning finding a husband for his daughter, Princess Adeola, as she celebrates her 30th birthday. On Instagram, the monarch expressed his appreciation for her fulfilling life and prayed for God’s guidance as his little princess transitions into womanhood.
Looking back on previous milestones, the Ooni of Ife recalled conversations about school and future plans when she was 10, as well as the significance of morals and independence at 20.
Now, at 30, he playfully requested her to find a husband for him, suggesting that it’s time for her to consider marriage.
In his words;
“Princess Adeola, Aanuoluwapo, Atutunini, Bamdefe Ogunwusi, Omo Ojaja II. I am truly grateful for the fulfilling life you have lived. May God Almighty continue to be with you in all your endeavors. Amen!
When you turned 10, your father would talk to you about school and your future. At 20, he encouraged you to listen and understand the importance of morals and well-being, even as you sought independence.
Now that you are 30, you are a grown woman. Your father senses that you no longer wish to be advised as independence has finally set in.
I talked 10 to you and I got your subtle independence behaviour in return, I talked 20 to you and still got your near obvious independence behaviour in return. Now I’m talking 30 to a grown woman, so go and bring husband to daddy o…
With love from the throne of Oduduwa. Congratulations, and may God continue to guide you in all your pursuits.”
