A 55-year-old Delta State highlife musician, Dr Arube Otor, popularly known as Isoko Fela One is set to marry three women on the same day.
The event is slated for Sunday, January 19, 2025, at Anglican Church Field at London Base, Uzere Kingdom, Isoko South Local Government Area of the state.
Arube took to Facebook on December 31 to share the wedding invite and pre-wedding photos with his brides-to-be, Oghenekome, Ewoma, and Oghenekaro.
Arube hails from Uzere Kingdom, in Isoko-South LGA, and the three wives are from Lagos-Iyede in Ndokwa East LGA, Oruamudhu Ozoro Kingdom in Isoko North LGA and Uroto Quarter, Ozoro Kingdom in Isoko North LGA of Delta State respectively.
Arube’s foster son, Emperor Efih (Oscar), who confirmed the event in an interview with Punch said that the brides were initially four, but one pulled out along the line for personal reasons.
“Arube married two women about 20 years ago. One divorced him, leaving him with just one wife. To cut costs, he decided to marry four women this year. Along the way, one pulled out,” Efih explained.
“He is a music legend in Delta. He sings Isoko highlife. He has been in the music scene for over 30 years. However, at the beginning of his life, he was a driver who mixed music with his career. He had a band with a group of people, but they split up, and he formed his dance band, which he named Arube, about 12 years ago. Since then, he has released more than 10 albums
“None of them is from his community, so he didn’t woo them in the same place or time. Two of the three women have given birth to a child, each for him, and the other one is still awaiting the fruit of her womb. He did the traditional rite with them about last year on the same day.”
