Tongues have begun to wag as Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing visited the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi in his palace.
The actress posted a photo of her visit to the Ooni on his Instagram page late Monday and this has set tongues wagging that the Ooni might be up to something.
The way the Ooni and Blessing were laughing in the picture fuelled speculations that the Oba may want to add her to his retinues of wives (oloris).
