Ooni and ex-wife Naomi
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, joined family and friends on Friday to celebrate his former wife, Prophetess Naomi Silekunola, as she graduated from Elizade University in Ondo State.
The monarch attended the university’s combined 10th and 11th convocation ceremony in Ilara-Mokin, where Naomi bagged a degree in International Relations.
Gospel musician Dare Justified shared a video from the event on Instagram, confirming the Ooni’s presence.
He described graduation as another beautiful milestone for the former queen and prayed for greater opportunities ahead.
Ahead of the convocation, Naomi had opened up on her academic journey, revealing that she returned to school after more than a decade.
She said she sat the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination again to gain admission and spent four years combining motherhood with full-time studies.
The ceremony covered 964 graduands, including 116 who graduated with First Class honours.
The Ooni and Naomi got married in October 2018. She announced their separation on December 23, 2021.
Their union produced a son, Prince Tadenikawo. (The Nation)
