Queen Ola (born Badirat Olaitan Adeyemi), the prominent former wife of the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III, has proudly joined the league of celebrity property owners after splashing millions of naira on a brand-new luxury home. The mother of three shared the landmark achievement via her official Instagram account on July 18, 2026, posting visuals of the stunning new building.
Reflecting on her life’s journey following her highly publicized departure from the ancient Oyo palace and the subsequent passing of the monarch in 2022, Queen Ola penned an emotional note. She attributed the milestone to absolute perseverance, intense personal struggles, and unwavering faith.
“Every late night, every sacrifice, every prayer, and every tear led me here,” Queen Ola shared with her followers. “This house is more than bricks and walls; it is a testimony to God’s faithfulness and a reminder to me that God’s timing is always perfect. Welcome to my new home. Alhamdulillah Robil Al-Ameen”.
The comment section of the announcement quickly transformed into a celebration ground, with top Nollywood figures, digital creators, and society friends dropping warm notes of congratulations. A-list actress Mercy Aigbe, filmmaker Omowunmi Ajiboye, and Queen Tobi (wife of the Ooni of Ife) were among the high-profile personalities who publicly celebrated the young entrepreneur’s massive financial achievement.
Since her exit from the palace, Queen Ola has intentionally focused on building her personal brand, expanding her business ventures, and providing for her kids, rendering this new property acquisition a profound milestone of independent success.
