The Oluwo of Iwoland, His Imperial Majesty, Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, and his Jamaican wife, Chanel Chin, have ended their marriage.
The marriage between the royal father and the Jamaican produced a son named Oduduwa.
Oba Akanbi got married to Chanel Chin, shortly after he ascended the throne of his forefathers in November 10, 2015.
A statement by Oluwo’s Press Secretary, Alli Ibrahim, said the couple ended the marriage “after irreconcilable differences.”
The statement from Oluwo’s palace reads, in part, “This is to inform the general public, most especially friends and associates of the Oluwo of Iwoland, His Imperial Majesty, Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, Telu I, that Ms Chanel Chin is an ex-queen of his majesty.
“This information is necessary for the attention of the general public to avoid representation on proxy or accordance of respect attached to the sacred stool of Oluwo to her.
“For personal irreconcilable differences, Chanel Chin ceased to be his Majesty’s queen. We equally enjoin the public to disregard any business transaction or request with her using the office of his majesty. We wish her the best in her new journey,” the statement concluded.
