Congratulations Pour In As Imo Monarch Eze Agbanyim Takes A New Bride

A traditional ruler in Orlu Local Government Area of Imo State, Eze Dr. G.A.E.O. Agbanyim, has reportedly married a much younger woman, following a wedding ceremony held on Saturday.

The marriage was announced on Facebook on Monday, October 26, 2026, by a user identified as Anthony Ariwaozo, who congratulated the monarch on the occasion.

According to Bush Radio Academy, Ariwaozo identified the royal figure as His Royal Majesty Eze Dr. G.A.E.O. Agbanyim, also known as Otitibirit, Elemaejeogu, the Ezeahurukwe of Amike Ancient Kingdom.

In his post, Ariwaozo announced that the monarch had tied the knot and extended congratulations to him on his marriage.

A Facebook post from September 2025 reportedly indicated that the traditional ruler celebrated his 80th birthday and marked 53 years on the throne that year. If the age stated in the earlier post is accurate, the monarch would be approximately 81 years old in 2026.

The marriage has drawn attention online, particularly because of the reported age difference between the monarch and his bride. However, the available information did not disclose the woman’s identity, her age or further details about the wedding ceremony.
