I have 3 daughters for Fani Kayode, but marriage was brief, unmemorable – Ex-wife

Ex-wife of Nigerian controversial politician and former Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), Femi Fani-Kayode, Mrs Yemisi Wada, has opened up concerning her erstwhile marriage to FFK as he is popularly called.

While speaking to Punch Newspaper, Mrs. Wada who is currently married to another top millionaire revealed that she has no fond memories of her ex-husband, Fani Kayode.

The woman who had three daughters for the politician also said that their marriage didn’t last long as presumed by people.

“As a young girl, if anybody had told me my marriage would break up, I wouldn’t have believed it. That is why even after three children, I knew I would remarry. I don’t know if it is that love of being a wife or to run a home. Whichever, I love being married. I have no fond memories of ex-husband, Femi Fani-Kayode, except having my daughters, as I am sure he would say same if asked.

“What people do not seem to realise is that we were together for only a very short while. The marriage itself lasted less than three years. The fact that I have three daughters makes it seem longer, but I left just when I was pregnant with my youngest daughter,” she said.

She however disclosed that what attracted her to the lawyer was his aspiration towards his career.

“It was a long time ago but I think at the time, all the men I knew were clubbing like I was but he was already serious in politics. He was a national youth leader of his party and the proposal was very direct as he said, ‘I am in politics and I need a homemade” She revealed.
