Evangelist Naomi Silekunola, the estranged wife of Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi Ojaja II, on Tuesday broke her silence on social media since her divorce post on Dec. 23.
Taking to her Instastories and Facebook statuses simultaneously on Tuesday night, the 28-year-old evangelist uploaded a short video of herself after a makeover session.
Playing rhythmically in the background was ‘I Am Beauri’ by Afro-soul singer, Bassey Kenneth, popularly known as Beekay.
The lyrics of the song heard in the video goes thus; I’m a beauri, I be spec, I drip glory, I be nobody’s ex, haters go hate o, potatoes will potate…
Naomi announced her separation from the king in an Instagram post in December 2021. She has also relinquished the title of ‘Queen’, saying she tried to make the union work for three years but Ooni’s public identity was different to “hers”. The true self.”
Since the split between Ooni and 47-year-old Naomi, many Yoruba kings and elders including Deji of Akure, Oba Aladetoyinbo Aladelusi, have tried to reconcile the estranged couple but peace talks cannot be said to have paid off as the divorce post remains on the evangelist’s social media accounts.
