Ooni Of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi Denies Visiting Emefiele In Prison

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has denied reports that he visited the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, who is being detained at the Kuje
This was according to the monarch’s spokesperson, Moses Olafare.

According to Olafare, the Ooni visited the prison on behalf of Hopes Alive Initiative, a non-governmental organisation owned by one of his wives, Queen Temitope.

He noted that peddlers of the report were mischief-makers with the intent to blackmail the revered Yoruba monarch.

Olafare added that the programme, which was organised in collaboration with the Kuje correctional administration, in honour of the Ooni’s eighth anniversary, focused on providing hope to prisoners regarding their reintegration into society after serving their sentences.

He said, “The intent of those spreading the news was to blackmail the monarch; there is nothing hidden about the event. In any case, the king never met Emefiele because it was an official event organised by the NGO in conjunction with the Kuje Correction Centre.
