Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, on Thursday, married a new wife, Princess Aderonke Ademiluyi, in Ile-Ife, Osun State.
Princess Ademiluyi, who hails from a royal family in Ile-Ife, becomes the fifth woman to be married to Ooni.
The latest nuptial is coming barely a week after the revered Yoruba monarch married Ashley Adegoke, who hails from Lafogido royal house, also in Ile-Ife.
Ooni had earlier married Mariam Anako from Kogi State.
The other wives of Ooni include Elizabeth Akinmuda and Tobi Phillips.
Princess Aderonke is the great-granddaughter of late Ooni Ajagun Ademiluyi.
She is a law graduate of West London University and the founder of Africa Fashion Week London, an annual fashion event that promotes and nurtures African and African-inspired design talent.
Princess Aderonke is a cousin of the priestess of Olokun, Yeye Lara Fashola.
Ooni had earlier married Adebukola Bombata in 2008, but the marriage failed.
He later married Edo-born Zainab-Otiti Obanor in 2016, but the union lasted only 17 months before their separation.
The traditional ruler married Naomi Silekunola in 2018 and it ended in 2021.
