The Oluwo had earlier in November 2015, at 48, been married to his first wife, Jamaican Chanel Chin, shortly after he was enthroned.
The union produced a son named Oduduwa before it took a downturn due to irreconcilable differences.
The new bride-to-be is said to be 27 years old and is granddaughter to Ado Bayero and niece to the Emir of Kano’s.
It could bee recorded that in February, a letter had surfaced on the internet, suggesting that the Oluwo requested N20m from the governor of Osun state to finance his wedding since it was a ‘marriage of two important institutions in Nigeria.’
The Oluwo however, denied the allegations as fake.
