PHOTOS: Oluwo releases pictures of new wife

The Oluwo of Iwo in Osun State, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, has released the pictures of his new wife, Princess Firdaus Abdullahi.

Oluwo released the beautiful pictures of his new wife on Saturday, while the wedding ceremony is ongoing in Kano, Kano State.

The monarch released the pictures with a short message that read, ‘Queen Firdaus of Iwoland’.

The Star recalls that Oluwo had in an invite announced that his wedding to Princess Firdaus Abdullahi from the Ado Bayero dynasty in Kano, would hold on Saturday, March 19, 2022.

The Osun monarch stated that the wedding would hold at the residence of the Madakin Kano in Kano.

It was further indicated that Princess Firdaus Abdullahi would hold a grand reception strictly for ladies at Gidan Rumfa inside the palace of the Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, on the same date.

The 27-year-old Firdaus Abdullahi is a niece of Emir of Kano.

It would be recalled that Oluwo, who is remarrying barely three years of divorce from his first marriage with a Jamaican woman, recently made headlines for allegedly soliciting for the sum of N20 million from Governor Oyetola of Osun State to marry a princess in Kano State.

Oluwo, however, denied writing a letter to the governor to solicit financial support for the wedding.

Oba Akanbi became the Oluwo of Iwo in November 2015 at the age of 48.
