Ogun royal scandal unfolds as a London socialite’s three-month marriage to Oba Adekeye unravels, leaving a trail of accusations and damaged reputations
A whirlwind of controversy has engulfed the tranquil town of Joga Orile in Ogun State, as the brief and tumultuous marriage between Oba Adekeye and London socialite Bunmi Oyewole implodes, leaving behind a trail of accusations and irreparable damage to the monarch’s reputation.
Bunmi Oyewole’s ascent to “Queen” was marked by alleged deception and manipulation. Sources claim she forged a divorce certificate to marry Oba Adekeye while still legally married to Adeniyi Lawal, a UK-based medical worker.
This occurred after Olori Olanike Ayinke Adekeye, the Oba’s estranged wife, left the palace, creating an opportunity Bunmi seized.
Her history reveals a pattern of controversial unions. Before Oba Adekeye, she married Steve Fowowe in 2004, a 12-year marriage that ended in 2016.
Five months later, she married Adeniyi Lawal, a union marred by allegations of rape against Lawal, leading to his imprisonment in the UK.
During her three-month marriage to Oba Adekeye, Bunmi flaunted a lavish lifestyle, raising questions about its source.
Despite reportedly relying on UK welfare benefits, she claimed to have spent millions on the Oba, gifting him expensive items. Critics allege her wealth stemmed from unpaid loans and financial mismanagement.
The relationship soured when Bunmi learned of Olori Olanike’s impending return. Reportedly, Bunmi demanded the Oba refuse Olanike’s return, leading to alleged blackmail attempts. She rejected the role of a junior wife and insisted Olanike beg her for acceptance, a demand the Oba refused.
Bunmi’s reputation as a “professional husband snatcher” stems from her history of using marriage for personal gain. Her marriages to Fowowe, Lawal, and Adekeye all ended in controversy, with allegations of financial exploitation and manipulation.
The fallout has severely damaged Oba Adekeye’s reputation, casting a shadow over his once-respected status. The community now grapples with accusations of manipulation and deceit.
As Bunmi Oyewole reportedly moves on to a new relationship with the Abepa of Joga Orile, questions remain about her accountability and the future of her controversial lifestyle. The public awaits further developments in this unfolding royal scandal.
