BEVERLY HILLS, May 24, (THEWILL) – Not too long ago, actress Tayo Sobola, who sent tongues wagging about her marital status when she uploaded pictures of herself in a wedding gown, has again got people talking with her latest act. She was recently conferred with the title of “Queen Mother” by the Emir of Uke Kingdom in Nasarawa State, HRM Abdullahi Hassan.
The gesture has raised eyebrows in some quarters, with many questioning the reason for honoring her with the title, which is believed to be the second highest in Uke kingdom. The light-skinned actress is the second person to be bestowed with the title since it was created in 1970. This has got many wondering about the nature of the relationship between the actress and Uke Kingdom.
One thing that is clear to TheWill is that the actress has been frequenting Abuja as she has set up shop there for her fashion business, Clean Stitches and Nasarawa, which is a border state to Abuja, is just a few minutes’ drive to the capital city. Several reasons have been attributed to the Emir’s gesture. Sources have hinted that what he has with Tayo may just be beyond a subject and a monarch relationship.
Some allege that the handsome traditional ruler has been bankrolling the actress’ expensive lifestyle and spoiling her silly with the good things of life, including the mansion where she stays whenever she is in Abuja and the building that houses her fashion house. The actress was recently sighted with the Emir when they paid a courtesy visit to the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
