Olori Tobi Phillips-Ogunwusi, one of the wives of the Ooni of Ife, has responded to critics questioning her presence on TikTok and her decision to promote brands on the platform.
In a video shared on Sunday, the former beauty queen defended her choice to remain active online, stating that marriage should never stop anyone from working or pursuing their passions.
“When you get married you don’t work? If that makes you happy then fine. Oh don’t you see Davido and DJ Cuppy and Temi working on their brands? Consistently working and those are Nepo babies. So what’s my excuse? Make it make sense now. Why I no go carry my work for head?” she said.
Olori Tobi emphasized that she takes pride in her creativity and business ventures, adding that she wants to be remembered for more than just her beauty.
“It will be written in the sands of time that Queen Tobi Phillips-Ogunwusi isn’t just a beautiful lady, she’s multitalented,” she said.
The queen, who is married to Ooni Adeyeye Ogunwusi, is the founder of QTP Luxury Fashion, a fashion and lifestyle brand.
Olori Tobi Phillips won the World Miss University Nigeria pageant in 2012 and represented the country at the international edition held in South Korea.
She married the Ooni in October 2022, becoming his third wife.
