In a statement, Ooni Adeyeye Ogunwusi’s spokesperson refuted circulating reports suggesting the monarch visited Kuje prison to meet former CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele. The spokesperson clarified that the Ooni’s presence was part of an NGO event organized by his wife, Queen Temitope, focused on advocating for correctional center initiatives.
The program aimed to instill hope in inmates for successful reintegration into society after completing their terms, marking the Ooni’s eighth anniversary on the throne.
The spokesperson emphasized that the intention behind spreading such news was to unjustly tarnish the monarch’s image, asserting that there was no clandestine meeting with Emefiele.
