There is no way that anybody would tell me that none of these people gathered to celebrate had heard about the story trailing this lady. I therefore summarise my feelings thus:
1) It is either that the whole story they told us about her past is false, or
2) It is a false assumption that a calamity would befall the kingdom if the oba marries a woman whose bride price had been previously paid by another man.

So they went through with the wedding notwithstanding all the warnings from many quarters by concerned hearts?
Well, what else can I say than to wish them whatever they wished themselves and peace to the people of Ife land.
To the entire Yoruba race worldwide, I say, remain blessed.
I GAT TO…

Who are we to judge anyone. I admire his most dashing and debonair imperial Highness for marrying Wuraola. Even if she did all those things, so what? Now she has found true love and will settle down. Obviously, those past men in her life were jerks who traumatized her life, and now she had met her Knight in shining armor who will right all the wrongs done to Olori Wuraola in the past. I pray that God that turned Saul’s life around and he became Paul one of the greatest Apostle’s that ever lived will use this vivacious Olori to add more dazzling allure and history and honor to Ile Ife’s history through her.
I sympathize with the first wife, but maybe Olori Wuraola will have her child first, so God will open up her womb too; read the story of Abram (later Abraham) and Sarai, and how she allowed Another woman to have a child by her husband first, so God could bless her too.
In parting, I wish everyone involved joy, peace, happiness and God’s blessings.
