Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, the Oluwo of Iwo, has crowned his newly wedded wife, Firdauz Akanbi, as the queen of the ancient town.

Akanbi married his heartthrob from the dynasty of Ado Bayero in Kano State on March 19 at the residence of Madakin Kano, Yola Quarters, Kano.

Like the ex-lover of the 55-year-old monarch, Chanel Chin, Oluwo crowned Firdauz and reiterated her commitment in loving the new queen like his progenitor, Oduduwa.

In a photo made available to The Nation on Wednesday, the royal couple adorned deep blue Yoruba attire with beads on their neck and wrist.

The Oluwo, in a short text that accompanied the photos, writes: “Every Queen Deserves A Crown ! My Great Progenitor Oduduwa taught me to love my Queen by crowning her and thats why Olokun the wife of Oduduwa was Crowned ! King Telu loves Queen Firdauz and he crowned her !!!.”
