Weeks ago, a rumour filtered around town most especially on social media that Elegushi of Ikate land, Oba Saheed Ademola Elegushi’s wife Olori Sekinat Aramide Elegushi was seriously ill and was in a critical state as a result of an alleged botched Brazilian Butt Lift BBL surgery. The rumour went around and started to gain ground until the Elegushi palace released a statement to clear the rumour that the Olori is fine and not in any way sick which put the sickness rumour to an abrupt end. But it seems Olori Sekinat’s detractors went back to their drawing table to re-strategise and struck again. This time, they went ahead and announced that the light-skinned mother of three had kicked the bucket. This further threw caution into the air as people started calling and visiting the Ikate Palace to show concern and solidarity with her family. Alas, they were shocked to see Olori Sekinat in her full glare looking regal and ravishing as usual in her calm demeanour wearing a charming smile welcoming those who came. This served as a sign of relief to those who are scared. The false alarm of her alleged demise was raised by one well-known social media bully and ‘Facebook Blogger’ Toluwalope Olowolagba known as ‘Abike Jagaban’ who started the rumour on her Facebook live where she announced that she has a breaking story with a grapevine source that confirmed to her that Olori has transited to the world beyond as a result of complications from a BBL surgery.
According to sources, Olori Sekinat was said to have embarked on a trip to visit one of her daughters who currently study in the United States which led to the rumour. For her well-wishers online, it took frantic effort from popular makeup artiste Banke Meshida Lawal to visit the Olori in her husband’s palace where she did a live video of the Olori to debunk the rumour from the pit of hell that she was alive, kicking with life this further made her fans and well-wishers more relaxed. The unscrupulous element that started the rumour on getting to know that she goofed went ahead to delete the live footage but many had screen recorded where she made the false and unverified claim. In other to evade arrest and justice we gathered that the social media bluff fleed into hiding in the United Kingdom where she called several influential kings in across Yoruba land to beg the Elegushi family that she was misled by someone close to the palace but we gathered that she is not new to such issues as her bag of controversy is never dry. “She is notorious for cyberstalking and cyberbullying. She was recently arrested for misinformation and also making disparaging and libellous comments online.” a source said. while she is being ignored by many, we gathered that the Elegushi family has promised to institute a case against her so as to teach her a lesson and also put a stop to her frequent insubordination online.
While the easy-going and affable Olori Sekinat has also been wondering why Abike will raise such a false alarm to mislead the public without confirmation many wondered why she would want her dead. According to close sources, she has been envious of Olori Sekinat’s magic wand as an entrepreneur, philanthropist, fashion connoisseur and wife of the revered monarch. “She does not like Olori Sekinat from day one and she has not hidden her disdain for her. Olori Sekinat has often avoided her in public places and does not want to be associated with such a character. Olori Sekinat is well-loved in and outside the kingdom. She has openly abused Olori made derogatory statements and casted aspersions on her person on her live videos but she keeps ignoring them and she is unperturbed. This time around she pushed her luck too far, she will pay dearly for wishing our Olori dead.”
