In what seems like a message to those who believe she is with the monarch for money, Olori Tobi stated that she told herself she was going to marry for love which was why she accepted to be the King’s third wife.
According to her, she saw some values in the monarch, which she has always wanted her future husband to have.
“Someone called me one day and said, “Do you want to get married? And he asked if I wanted to get married to the Ooni.
He introduced me to the Ooni. At first, I didn’t take it seriously because I was like, ‘what’s going on’.
Then we met and started dating, but there was so many interference and we didn’t get married. That was quite devastating.
I always promised myself that I will marry someone that I love. There are values that I love in a man and the Ooni has that”.
