If the story making the rounds is anything close to the truth, then the ex-wife of the Oonirisa, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Naomi Silekunola is having a shot at matrimony a second time.

The prophetess who was sent packing from the Odua Palace some years ago for undisclosed reason, is yet to hug royalty again as she has been linked to the Managing Director of Obat Petroleum, Femi Akinruntan who himself is a prince, being the second son of billionaire monarch and the Olugbo of Ugboland, Oba Frederick Akinruntan.

From a post monitored on popular instagram blog, Maestromedia, the Olugbo, Oba Akinruntan is said to have fallen for the charm of the prophetess that he decided to marry her for his son.

Many who had monitored the supremacy war between the Olugbo and the Ooni of Ife regarded this as a contest to spite the youthful Ooni of Ife.

The billionaire monarch was said to have taken up the welfare of Naomi immediately she got separated from the Ooni.

There were claims that he gave her a house in Lagos, car and foots her monthly bills explaining why the ex-queen did not feel her separation from her husband

Though unconfirmed, the plot to welcome the young prophetess who bore a son to the Ooni is thickening with news that the Olugbo palace is gearing towards a superlative ceremony and has informed those who should know.

Prince Femi Akinruntan, the GMD of Obat Petroleum is married to Folake, the daughter of a popular businesswoman, Elsie in Ibadan.

Talk of betrayals! Ask Julius Caesar…that’s the slang being bandied around the quarters of Oyo State Government House, Ibadan with tales of a fight between the Governor, Seyi Makinde and his bosom friend, Peter Eledan.

Those in the know claimed the Governor who just won another term to continue piloting the affairs of the Pacesetters State has stopped picking Peter’s phone and has cut all means of communication with him.

Peter popularly called ‘Piro’ was a force and one of the people that make things happen in Oyo State.

He was an unofficial aide of the Governor in charge of projects and grants coming to Oyo State. He has the Governor’s ears and uses the influence to full force, police escorts and other privileges.

Unlike Seye Famojuro who is known across Ibadan as Makinde’s ‘man-Friday’, Eledan is the background force known  strictly to investors and contractors, he belonged to the Governor’s ‘business-team’.

What pitched the friends against each other was said to be a deal where Peter blotted out some details from the Governor.

The discovery according to sources angered the Governor and he decided to trim Peter’s influence.

Sources within the Government sector revealed that there had been effort by some quarters to wade in and settle the matter, but the Governor is not ready for reconciliation.

‘Peter still attends state functions and you can see him hanging around the Governor, but he no longer carries the influence anymore’,  a source close to the government circle revealed.

Eledan is a brother to UK based  Moses Eledan, a childhood friend and classmate to Governor Seyi Makinde in primary school.
