Meanwhile, a communications specialist and multimedia journalist, Adesola Ayo-Aderele has warned that people should not confuse public affection as a sign that all is well with a marriage.

Writing on her verified Facebook page concerning the crisis in the Ooni of Ife's marriage, she stated:

“Just last October 17 when Ooni marked his 47th birthday, the show of love between him and his soon-to-be ex-Olori was enviable.
“She had arranged colourful fireworks for His Imperial Majesty, with the Ooni confessing that the Olori had made unassailable inroads into his heart, promising to love her better than ever.
“While the marriage lasted, the Olori would kneel a million times in a minute, complete with serenades while exalting HRM in public, with plenty of laughter and loving looks that would make anyone jealous.
