Nigerians react
Commenting on the Deji of Akure's reconciliation move, Ogar Michael said on Facebook:
"The Olori was too quick to bring her marital issues to the public. Who ever advised her, did so wrongly.
"I wish after reconciliation, she will come out again to apologize to the Ooni and the entire kingdom publicly.
"It is my sincere wish and prayer that they get together again. Marriage has never been a bed of roses. Even if it were, roses too have thorns. Wishing you both the best."
Adeshina Tahir Balogun said:
"It's better to allow the woman to leave because she already opened her mind and says it all and it would be a fruitless efforts to convince her heart because she had already digested all her worries and had made up her mind to have a freedom of movement to live in her world."
Tayospeak Akanni said:
"It can never be the same. Even if they reconciled,Ooni and Olori Naomi will continue to live with mutual suspicion. When that happens between couple, the game is over."
Joe Moren said:
"I will advise both parties to let go the marriage in peace.
"The embarrassment of publicly announcing the divorce in the social media is the deepest cut that will be difficult to heal. I see reserved hate all the way. Don't forget, we are human."
