Emerging details have it that Oba Saheed Ademola Elegushi, the Lagos monarch at the helms of affairs at Ikate Land played a prominent role in the collapsed marriage of his counterpart in Osun State, the Oluwo of Iwo Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi.

The Oluwo who is better rated traditionally than Elegushi but lesser viewed socially as a result of his conduct since he took the throne infamously separated from his Queen Channel China a couple of months ago.

The development has turned for the worse as the Queen continues to release damning allegations of assault and unbecoming conduct against the Oluwo.

Insiders have now revealed the role Elegushi played in the whole affair.

Societynow.ng learned Elegushi was ‘the glue ” that kept the marriage for as long as it lasted.

Sources disclosed that the Ikate Monarch played a major role in trying to avert the unfolding mess between Oluwo and his former Queen.

Societynow.ng learned Elegushi who was there at the beginning was the one the former queen and Oluwo always petition whenever there were ‘issues’ in the troubled marriage and he tried to help them stay the course in the ill-fated “matrimony” before “things fell apart”.

” Oba Elegushi’s best intentions to keep the marriage together obviously failed” a source pointed out.

Societynow.ng gathered that at a point the Ikate monarch actually realized a collapse of the union was inevitable – but he still kept making his peace overtures to prevent the mess that his happening.

“When Elegushi realized that they were sneakily recording intimate moments and private conversations to justify individual positions, he knew it was just a matter of time before the marriage collapsed..he cooled off a bit with his interventions but kept suing for peace between husband and wife” societynow.ng learned.

The surreptitious recordings by the embittered husband and wife are now being used against each other – with the bulk of the former queen’s forming a part of the serialized interview by Asabe Afrika that made weighty allegations against the Oluwo.

One or two of the recordings released the former queen expressly justified Elegushi’s role as “a peacemaker” in the failed union.
