IBADAN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Queen Tobi Phillips-Ogunwusi, the third wife of the Ooni of Ile-Ife, HRH Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has shown gratitude to God for shutting the mouths of her detractors.
According to the Queen, months ago, she asked God for a gift that will shut the mouth of her detractors and he answered her.
She explained that in July or August, 2022, a man told her that he doesn’t see her kind of woman getting married because she is too “vavavoom”.
The Queen said that was the “straw that broke the camel’s back” so she prayed to God to give her a gift that will shock those who have said mean things to her.
Queen Tobi added that she promised God that she will dance every Sunday in thanksgiving if he answers her prayers.
She shared her story on Instagram Monday morning as some sort of motivation, while advising people to “ask and ye shall recieve”.

A netizen, Robo banderas, said: “Lol,women with low self esteem,for her mind being a 5th wife in a polygamous home is a blessing,if she was one the people that criticized/condemned yul for marring a second wife ,that means she is a bloody hypocrite,some women once the man is rich they don’t mind being the 7th wife,but they insult yul everyday on SM,hypocrites,,Goodbye…”
