That Ooni of Ile-Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II on Tuesday, September 6th, 2022 welcomed his new wife, Mariam Anako into the palace is an established fact.
Be that as it may, millions of Nigerians don’t know much about the new queen.
But, we can tell you for free that the new queen has never been married before and she is in her 30s.
Before now, Olori Mariam was working as an administrative manager in an oil and gas firm.
Olori Mariam is from the Ebira ethnic group in Kogi State. Her parents were based in Ilorin, Kwara Stat. She lost her dad at a young age.
She was raised in the home of former Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Dikko. Her mother is a retired police officer.
The queen’s elder sister, Medina Anako is a lawyer, businesswoman and also Special Adviser on Intergovernmental Affairs and Kogi State Diaspora Focal Point Officer (DFPO) to Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State.
Olori Mariam’s elder sibling, Mrs. Raliat Abdulrahman nee Anako is a Special Adviser to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon Femi Gbajabiamila.
Mariam is the Ooni’ fourth wife.
