Mercy Aigbe is a Nigerian actress, director, fashionista and businesswoman and she is best known for her yoruba indigenous movies.
Recently, the popular actress has rubbished insinuations that she was the one that crashed the her new husband, Kazeem Adeoti, popularly known as Adekaz’s marriage to his first wife, Funsho.
Meanwhile, Angela Tolulade, a United States of America-based woman, who claimed to be a family friend to the Adeotis told Saturday Beats that:
“Adekaz came to Nigeria with Funsho, who later went back to the US, saying she did not want to stay in Nigeria. The marriage was on until Funsho refused to come over and her husband kept pushing for her to be around. It is important to note that this matter had dragged on for almost two years. He (Adekaz) told her (Funsho) point blank that he would marry another wife if she did not return as agreed.”
Tolulade also insisted that Adekaz never shirked his responsibility to their three children. She said, “Till date, Adekaz still carries out his duties as a father. He pays the school fees of the children and foots their other bills. Funsho cannot say he neglected her because she was the one adamant about not returning to Nigeria.”
Speaking further, the family friend stated that despite pressure from her husband, Funsho refused to relocate to Nigeria. She added, “It is on record that Funsho bluntly told Adekaz that she would not return to Nigeria because she can’t live in Nigeria anymore. She told him that if he chooses to marry another wife in Nigeria, he can go ahead but once he does that, it would be over between them.
“She gave her husband an ultimatum to choose between coming back to the US or staying back in Nigeria, marry another wife and everyone would go their separate ways. Funsho cannot deny not knowing that her husband was taking another wife as she was fully informed”.
“My husband is a Muslim and he is allowed to have more than one wife. I did not break his marriage to Funsho.” Mercy Aigbe said
“If Funsho wanted her marriage to work, she would have returned many years ago. But she stayed put in Minnesota. Their first child is in a private university in the US, and Adekaz pays her fees. Their other kids are also not abandoned. Meanwhile, Adekaz is a Muslim and he has the right to marry more than one wife.” Angela Tolulade concluded.
