Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife, has named his newborn son after the 49th Ooni, Oba Adesoji Tadenikawo Aderemi.

Oba Ogunwusi made the announcement in a social media post, saying, “In accordance with the traditional rites lasting for 21 days, with today marking the 8th day, and in keeping to my promise of naming our first prince after my predecessor, the 49th Ooni of Ife in the 3rd dynasty of Ife”

“Our prince is hereby named “Tadenikawo, Adesoji, Aderemi, Eri-Ifeoluwasimi, Adeiwa, Inioluwa, Ademide, Adegbite, Diekoloreoluwa Ogunwusi Ojaja II’. Pray to God to guide and keep him in fulfilment of his destiny”

The monarch welcomed the baby with his wife, Olori Moronke Naomi Silekunola.

Oba Adesoji Aderemi was a Nigerian political figure and Yoruba traditional ruler reigned from 1930 until 1980.

The late monarch also served as the governor of Western Region, Nigeria between 1960 and 1962.

Meanwhile, the Director of Media and Public Affairs to the palace, Moses Olafare, has said that the photos circulating in public of the prince are fake.

He explained that the “Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, who has the sole right to make the face of the baby public, is yet to do so, as essential traditional rites to formally welcome the Prince in accordance to our culture and traditions are still ongoing.”
