Olori Naomi Rushed to Hospital After Collapsing in Custody Amid Ibadan Charity Tragedy

After apparently falling in police custody on Friday, Olori Naomi Silekunola Ogunwusi, the estranged wife of Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife, was taken to the hospital.

She was arrested after more than 32 children were killed in a terrible stampede at a charity event she co-organized in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State. The event, which was organized in collaboration with Oriyomi Hazmat’s Agidigbo 88.7FM Ibadan, sought to feed and give 5,000 kids ₦5,000 each.

However, as a stampede broke out, the situation took a terrible turn and several people died. Police detained Olori Naomi and other event organizers while they conducted their investigations.

The former queen reportedly passed out while being held and was sent to the hospital almost away to receive medical attention.

Condolences and supportive comments started to flood in as soon as word spread of her breakdown. Celebrity stylist Luminee posted a touching message on Instagram, expressing sadness for the victims’ families and praying for Olori Naomi’s courage during this trying time.

There have been numerous requests for responsibility and steps to stop disasters at such events in the future as a result of this occurrence. The circumstances behind the accident are still being looked upon by authorities.
