Delta musician Dr. Arube Otor, known as Isoko Fela One, is set to marry three women on the same day
Dr. Arube Otor, a 55-year-old highlife musician from Delta State, is preparing to marry three women on the same day. The event will take place on Sunday, January 19, 2025, at the Anglican Church Field in Uzere Kingdom, Isoko South Local Government Area.
The musician, popularly known as Isoko Fela One, shared a viral marriage flier showing him dressed identically to his three brides: Oghenekome, Ewoma, and Oghenekaro, all from Delta State.
Arube’s foster son, Emperor Efih (Oscar), confirmed the event and revealed that initially, Arube intended to marry four women. However, one bride withdrew for personal reasons, leading to the decision to proceed with three wives. Efih explained that Arube’s past experience with marriage, including his earlier union with two women, one of whom divorced him, led him to seek a more cost-effective approach.
Arube, a music legend in Delta, has been in the highlife music scene for over 30 years. Before his musical career, he worked as a driver while pursuing his passion for music. He formed his own band, Arube Dance Band, about 12 years ago, and has since released more than 10 albums.
None of Arube’s three brides come from his community. Two have already given birth to his children, while the third is awaiting a child. The traditional marriage rites for all three were performed last year on the same day.
The brides represent different parts of Delta State: Edafemaga from Lagos-Iyede in Ndokwa East LGA, Agbede from Oruamudhu Ozoro in Isoko North LGA, and Oghenekaro from Uroto Quarter in Ozoro, also in Isoko North LGA.
