    Clearing the air, Oluwafunso wrote, “Let’s get the record straight here. This post is regarding an interview recently going around by Media Room Hub with my soon-to-be ex-husband in one of his numerous lies.

    “I want you all to know that in contrast to what Mr Adeoti said, I did NOT and will NEVER SETTLE to have a second wife in my marriage to him.

    “Kazim, you should stop painting a perfect picture of a marriage you clearly do not have with me, Oluwafunso Asiwaju Couture.

    “You and your sidechick can continue with whatever it is you are doing, BUT NEVER come out to social media degrading me or my children with your demeaning and childish attitude. I will not stoop to your level of rubbish and stupidity.”

    Responding to Mercy’s claims that there were never friends, Oluwafunso said, “As for you Mercy, let’s cut the crap. We were friends, but the shame and your glam lifestyle will not let you admit it.

    “You have been sleeping with Kazim since your son was only 5 months old. I introduced you to Kazim as my friend. I called and personally invited you and your ex-husband to the 40th surprise birthday party I did for my soon-to-be ex-husband.”

    Mercy had welcomed her son with her ex-husband, Lanre Gentry, in June 2010. Going by Oluwafunso’s claims, the actress have had sexual relations with Kazim since November 2010.

    “You were a problem in my marriage for YEARS. Now I’m happy to let you know this is only the beginning of the end for you.

    “I’m DONE. He’s all yours, ENJOY. I’m really past this. Like I said in my first post, ‘Losing someone who does not respect or appreciate you is actually a gain, not a loss.’”

    Though Mercy seemed unperturbed as she shared a picture on her Instagram page.

    She hailed herself as an Alhaji’s wife saying, “AgbekeAde, Iyawo Alhaji.”

    In a since-deleted Instagram post, Kazeem said; “I have read many things that have been written about me and my family. Many of which are fabricated lies and some directly from my first wife.”

     

    In an already deleted Instagram post, Kazeem explained he is still very much married to two wives which his religion permits but with some conditions, and is aware his first wife (Funsho Adeoti) is upset he took another wife.

    His post reads “At this point, it is necessary I put record straight. I have two wives. One lives in the US while the other lives with me in Nigeria. As a matter of fact, I just got back from America 3 days ago where I spent quality time with my family and tried to mend fences with my first wife who is obviously still angry I married a second wife.

    “And talking about being a Muslim and a responsible man, I make sure none of my family in the US or Nigeria is suffering. It is laughable that some people said I have abandoned my US family.

    “For the record, I ensure my US family gets 1500 dollars since 2016 monthly until recently when I reviewed it to 1000 dollars cos our daughter is now in the private university and I have been solely responsible for her school fees and upkeep.”

    Kazeem also added he built the house himself but his first wife contributed with furnishing material, just like the second wife has done.

    He also gave his reason for marrying a second wife, stating his first wife relocated permanently to another country.

    “In as much as there is nothing bad in husband and wife building house together, in my case, we did not. I built the house by myself.

    “When I was furnishing the house, she bought some furnishing materials and part of the money I have refunded. My second wife had added some furnishing to the house as well.

    “It is not in my character to speak ill of people who were once friends not to talk of my first wife (who is still my wife as we speak). I will not speak ill of her for the sake of the good and bad times we shared and the good kids that God gave us.

    “It is understandable that my first wife is unhappy about getting a second wife but she left me no choice when she relocated permanently to the US.

    “I am a Muslim and Islam permits me to marry more than one wife as long as I take care of them and I don’t maltreat them. I can stand before God and man that as a man, I have done my best not to maltreat them. And I will not paint my first wife bad no matter what or use foul language on her and her family.”

    Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe, has stated reasons why she fought Lagos business woman popularly known as Larrit at a party in Lagos.

    The beautiful actress made this revelation on her verified instagram page on Monday where she gave account of what went down at the party.

    She explained that the Business woman ,Lara used to be a very close friend and business partner, saying they  did business together in the past.

    According to the actress, Lara was an acquaintance who suddenly became an enemy.

    Aigbe stated that the businesswoman had severally insulted her on social media despite the fact that in the past, she had patronised Larrit’s business and vice versa.

    “I was at a friend’s store opening (@rhemmygold) to celebrate with her. Larrit was one of the guests,” she wrote

    “This woman, for reasons best known to her slanders me online at every opportunity she gets. She has done many live videos and posts to this effect. I tried to reach out to her to understand what the issues were, but she chose to ignore me.

    “Lara and I are acquaintances. I have patronised her business and she also has done likewise. So I was surprised and confused how she suddenly became an enemy. I sent messages to her on WhatsApp, I called few people close to her to understand why she would decide to become an antagonist, all efforts proved abortive.”

    The actress also claimed that Larrit also continued the beef at the event despite several requests from other attendees to stop.

    “At the party yesterday, she started with the same energy, throwing words at me, calling me names and being disrespectful. Initially, I kept calm, and didn’t respond to her. People around her appealed to her to stop, yet Lara wouldn’t stop and so decided to stand up for myself and I retaliated with the same energy.

    “It became heated and everyone around tried to broker peace, but she still wouldn’t stop. At some point, she tried to throw a bottle at me but it hit a lady sitting in front of her and there was pandemonium. I stepped out to leave in the middle of the brouhaha but my friend pleaded with me to stay including the celebrant. I went back in and she started attacking me verbally again. Eventually, she was taken out of the party, and she left.

    “She went overboard with her hate yesterday. The bottle could have harmed someone and it would become a criminal case. This was an unnecessary attack. However, I would like to apologise to fans and family who felt I should have handled the whole situation differently. I’m sorry,” she wrote.

    The said squabble happened at a star-studded event on Sunday in which Nollywood actresses such as Iyabo Ojo, Eniola Ajao, and Bimbo Thomas were in attendance.

    In videos making rounds on the Internet, the duo got into an argument that escalated after Larrit threw a bottle at the actress.

    Aigbe was later escorted out of the event amidst a crowd by police officers.

    How my first wife left me with no option than to marry Mercy Aigbe – Kazim Adeoti

    Mercy Aigbe’s husband, Kazim Adeoti has narrated how his first wife, Funsho Adeoti left him with no other option than to marry a second wife.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Kazim as saying that Funsho forced him to marry Mercy as his second wife when she permanently relocated to the U.S.

    Kazim made this known following the first wife’s recent outburst on social media.

    Recall that Funsho took to her social media page to publicly warn her husband and Mercy over the home they currently live in.

    The drama started after Mercy shared photos and videos of herself in her husband’s house on Sunday.

    However, this did not sit well with Funsho who warned the Nollywood actress to take the posts down within 12 hours.

    However, Mercy did not listen, but instead posted another video of herself in the house.

    This infuriated Funsho, who then went online to reveal that she furnished the house with her hard-earned money and threatened to take brutal action against her husband and Mercy.

    This prompted Kazim to weigh in to her claims and threats in a statement shared on his Instagram page.

    He disclosed that he built the house himself and his ex-wife only bought some furnishing for the house, to which he refunded part of the money to her.

    He added that his first wife forced him to marry a second wife when she permanently relocated to the U.S, adding that there is nothing wrong with his action because his religion, Islam, permits him to marry more than one wife as long as he can take care of them.

    “I have read many things that have been written about me and my family. Many of which are fabricated lies and some directly from my first wife (which understandably is angry married a second wife).
