“I Knew He’d Cheat From the Beginning, but He Loves Me”: Oba Elegushi’s Wife Olori Sekinat Says in Interview

• Olori Sekinat Elegushi currently has the attention of Nigerians in the online community following her sit-down interview with BBC Yoruba
• The elegant queen opened up about her relationship with Oba Saheed Elegushi and how she knew he’d go after other women from the beginning
• The interview has, however, stirred mixed reactions from Nigerians on social media who had diverse views about men and cheating

The first wife of Oba Saheed Elegushi, Olori Sekinat, is currently trending in the online community following a BBC Yoruba interview that saw her shedding more light on their union.

Olori Sekinat recounted how the then Prince Saheed had fallen in love with her after he spotted her at her mother’s shop in the popular Lagos Island market.

The queen made sure to stress that at the time, her husband wasn’t as wealthy and she had no idea that he would eventually become a king himself.

Olori Sekinat also mentioned that she had a knowledge of her husband’s philandering nature from the onset, but her patience and understanding nature was enough to keep her in the relationship and look past his excesses.

According to her, Oba Elegushi has always made it a point to prove his love and respect her position in his life even with the other women that occasionally come in and out of the picture.

About producing an heir for Oba Elegushi

Fielding a question about not producing an heir for the king, Olori Sekinat made it clear that she has been blessed with three daughters and they have been raised to go shoulder to shoulder with their male counterparts in the world.

On the frequency of failed marriages nowadays, Olori Sekinat stressed that women are no longer willing to struggle and build wealth with men. According to her, most ladies are now after readymade men.

“What a deep revelation. You shouldn’t have spoken about your ex in this interview.. You were double dating, you had a boyfriend and Kabiyesi was accompanying you to his place. That’s not something to be proud of.”

“Beautiful woman in and out. But She said Elegushi had nothing when she met him but Elegushi is a Prince. So she saw the potential that he could be king one day. Since we already know that all men are onisina, we won’t be surprised if he has a male child with someone outside. Sebi they won’t just come home ni? Gbogbo wa la ma wa alright.”
