What began as a calm and respectful gathering soon took an unexpected turn when the Ooni decided to lighten the mood.
In the clip, the Ooni addressed Taaooma by one of her most popular comedy alter egos, “Quadri,” a character well-known for being stubborn.
Fully aware of the character’s reputation, the monarch jokingly instructed “Quadri” to punch Jigan Babaoja.
Without hesitation, Taaooma immediately got up and moved towards Jigan, ready to act out the instruction, causing a mix of shock and laughter among those present.
Just as she approached him, the Ooni quickly stopped her, and the entire room burst into laughter, clearly enjoying the unexpected comedy skit.
The playful exchange did not end there. The Ooni, amused by Taaooma’s eagerness, asked why she could not wait before throwing the punch.
She admitted that she had long wanted to punch Jigan, suggesting a mock-standing grievance between the two entertainers.

Addressing guests at an event, Dangote disclosed that the construction faced significant delays due to the presence of at least 19 shrines at the site.
He recounted how the Ooni, who recently conferred chieftaincy title on Remi Tinubu, stepped in to resolve the fears by visiting the site and boldly ordering the removal of the shrines.
