One of the wives of Alaafin Of Oyo, Queen Aanu has cried out over alleged threat to her life on account of her abandoning her marriage to the 78 year old Alaafin of Oyo. Here is what she shared on her instagram page this evening:
I chose not to grant any interview to any media outlet as this is my personal and private life in which for the sake of my children, I chose to leave quietly in order to live for them, however, if I feel my life is being threatened, on to which I walked out of my marriage to protect, I will not be quiet about this.
I know that people have formed their opinions, either biased or unbiased as to why I made the decision to marry the monarch or leave my marriage, without saying much, walk in my shoes first and see where it hurts before judging me. This is not to seek any sympathy, I just want it to be on record.
I was appalled to find out that my family is been harassed because my location is unknown to the King. The attempt to also have me kidnapped failed, and I can no longer keep my silence. I refuse to live in bondage and will do anything within my human right to be free. I just want to live and be the mother of my children.
I would like to seize this medium to tender my unreserved apology to anyone who perhaps may be disappointed or angry at me for putting out this statement, this has to be done as I don't feel safe. My life is of utmost importance to me, I want to walk around without the fear of being stalked, or scared that anything might happen to me.
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
Queen Aanu
