Unlike many title holders, the Alake of Egbaland HRH Oba Michael Adedotun Gbadebo is married to only one woman, Olori Tokunbo, and they have been married for 43 years. They say he's the only long serving Oba in this country with only one wife. He became Alake of Egbaland in 2005.

The Oba revealed recently at a wedding where he was the chairman that he still shares the same bed with his wife and mother of his children, this was after he praised her for being an incredible partner. He said they have a strong bond and he never had the need to marry another woman.

The Oba who is 71, said his grandfather had 24 wives, while his own father had 3 but he decided one wife was enough and despite the fact that he was an Oba, he and his wife have always shared same room and same bed and that is how it will remain till death do them part. Aww, what a great man!

That's good.
What God has joined together let no room or bed put asunder.

Sir, you are an inspiration in a society that wants us to believe that masculinity is defined by having children from different women littering all over the place. lgnoring the fact that a healthy family life translates to a healthy community.

Good for him.
So it is now praiseworthy for a man to be responsible and faithful . Is it an inhuman achievement? Is that not what was is considered NORMAL for a normal person ?

Anyway he should pass on the good values to his sons and grandsons.

I think such a feat can only be achieved in Ogun state.


Most obas find it extremely impossible to have only one wife.

Did you miss the point by a long shot? grin

He is a traditional ruler, his office/position requires that he be married to as many wives as possible.
So it's not NORMAL for him to have just one wife - this is what makes it newsworthy.

You know exactly what I mean - traditional rulers are likely to have more than one wife.

You shouldn't disagree just because it's me and you feel I'm endorsing polygamy, you know I'm right.
