72-year-old Clarence White who got fed up of his wife complaining about his inability to satisfy her sexually or financially ended up pulling the trigger on her.
The man is said to have grabbed a 22-caliber handgun and shot his much-younger wife in the face at their Bronx home on Thursday morning.
Sources told the New York Daily News that the shooting followed an argument between White and his 28-year-old wife over her growing dissatisfaction with his inability to satisfy her financially or sexually.
Responding officers who were called to the scene found Dominique White around 8:40 a.m. sitting on the floor in a hallway of their home on Glebe Ave. in Parkchester.
The young woman was shot in the right cheek and was taken to Jacobi Medical Center where she remained in critical but stable condition on Friday, while the suspect was arrested by the Police.
According to court documents, White told Cops “I shot my wife.’
He also told the Police that he and his wife were arguing in the hours leading up to the shooting. Money was tight after he lost his job. During the argument, his wife ordered him to move out which made him shot her in the face in anger.
Appearing before the Bronx Criminal Court on Friday, a judge ordered White held on $300,000 bail when he was arraigned on attempted murder, assault, harassment and weapons possession charges.
A Nigerian man, a banker, blessed with three adorable kids has shared his testimony on how he was told by doctors that his wife won’t be able to bear a child.
Identified as Ifeanyi Okeke, he revealed that rather than worry over his wife’s medical condition, he believed in God that something positive will eventually happen and it did.
Read his story below;
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU PRAY FOR BECAUSE GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS – What was my Prayer Point: God please takeaway these wealth and give me children, even a child give me whether male or female. Dated March 2008.
In March 2008 I had been married to my wife (my Blessing) for eight years without a child. Eight years is not eight days or eight weeks or eight months. I mean eight years, enough to graduate and bag a PhD and be called a Professor.
I was blessed with a flourishing banking career. About the most popular banker in town already an Assistant General Manager (in-waiting). Nothing was more frustrating to me as going home to my wife with the news of a new promotion, a new car for her or a new house I intend building because of the response which will give me: what is all these worth without a child together.
It was in this frustration that I went into my room on that fateful but equally blessed day, went naked, knelt down, raised my hands up to heaven and made the radical prayer request.
To put things in perspective, in October 1999 we were both serving (NYSC) (having been dating since 1997) when I proposed to her. March 2000 just one month out of NYSC we got married (paid her bride price). Yes we got married, TW and Church wedding were ceremonies that followed later. I got a job April 2000.
On June 26, 2000 we got into a night bus together at Ido park, Lagos on a journey to Kano as I had completed three months training and was posted to Kano Main branch of the elsewhere Universal Trust Bank (UTB) as a Credit and Marketing Staff. We arrived Kano early morning June 27 2000 and moved into a one room she lived in as a CORPER which shared toilet, bathroom and kitchen with with another CORPER (Helen MO, tagged)
It was about October in 2004 that a renowned Consultant Gynecologist and Head of Gynecology & Obstetrician Department of Teaching Hospital in Nigeria after a laparoscopy procedure on my wife, had given his verdict to myself and wife that she will not be able to carry a child. In his opinion, even if she is able to conceive either naturally or assisted, her WOMB could not carry a baby. He further advised that I discuss with my wife to marry another lady if I want to have kids. Story for another day back to my answered prayer.
Yes God granted the two petitions I made in March 2008 but the second one came first “give me even a child”. In January 2009 our first child, Angel oluebubechukwu (Miracle work of God) was conceived and was successfully carried to term and delivered September 2009. About the time of her delivery God was already in motion to grant the first “takeaway all my wealth” as the stock market crashed with all I had worked for. At this point I was a Deputy General Manager in a top bank. One year after different circumstance had led me to leave my job.
Well I got another the next month at the same level in another top bank. Four months after God decided it will not only be a child but children so my wife conceived again, this time twins, CHIMZARAMEKPERE (My God has answered my prayer) and CHIMDERA (Once my God has written or ordained) carried to term and delivered November 2011. Two months before their delivery God completely answered the first prayer as in a circumstance beyond my control but by mutual consent I left my top banking job.
What would you say: YES GOD granted my prayers offered to him kneeling down naked with my hands raised to heaven.
A month after their delivery I couldn’t afford to buy pampers. Three/Four months later I couldn’t afford to take then to church for dedication. One year after I couldn’t buy even a cake to mark their birthday.
What did I do: I ran back to God naked, knelt down with hands raised up to heaven. I pleaded with God and said: Yes I told you to take away my wealth and give me children or even a child but I didn’t ask you to takeaway so much that I cannot afford to feed them. God said: my child I granted your request exactly as you asked. This was in 2012. Well I believe God has a reason for everything under the sun.
We went through struggles through for two years. By late 2014 through the special intervention of the Mother of Perpetual Help (Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God) God looked back with a smile and started the restoration process. It’s been three years of God’s divine restoration project in our lives.
Yesterday when I took these shots of my kids the entire memory came back so I decided to share with you. These kids I will not exchange for all the wealth in the whole world.
Friends, please bless God with my family. But beware what you ask from God because he answers prayers.
When you are down and out inside the gutter, run to the Mother of Perpetual Help (The Blessed Virgin Mary) to intercede for you. She NEVER fails to get result from her son who NEVER says no to her Mother.

The Nigerian singer, Chidinma Ekile has described the status of being unmarried to be profitable as it gives one much time to maintain intimacy with God and his worship.
The single 26-year-old damsel, who rose into stardom after she won at The MTN Project Fame in 2010 believes a single woman has less to worry about and can devote self to build a good prayer habit as God desires that in it.
“Some of you do not understand the benefits of being single, while you’re not married, you ought to be involved with God. At 5am you can lie in bed and pray in the spirit, you can lie on the floor and worship, you can lie in the bath, praising and worshipping for as long as you want.”
“The Lord wants you to come home at the end of the day and say ‘Lord, I went through so much today, I couldn’t wait to get home to worship you, I’m glad you’re here’. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to be married, just take care of the Lord while you’re waiting, minister to Him and worship Him. You’re in a position and posture of prayer. The Lord has become your necessary food.”
“There is a special relationship between God and the single believer. God has a special anointing for the woman who is free to seek Him. Her prayer life should explode in miracles”, she wrote on Instagram.

These heartwarming photos were taken moments after a baby boy was born on board a long-haul flight 39,000 feet above the Atlantic.
The Lufthansa flight from Colombia to Germany was quickly diverted to Manchester Airport after the unexpected delivery on Wednesday afternoon.
Luckily, three passengers happened to be doctors and were on hand to help deliver baby Nikolai, who was adorably named after one of the medics.
The plane was grounded at Manchester at 1pm so the healthy newborn and his Bulgarian mother Desislava, 38, could receive special care at Wythenshawe Hospital.
Captain of the flight, Kurt Mayer, said he’d ‘never experienced anything like it’ in his 37-year career.
He said: ‘Aside from the birth of my own son, this was the most moving moment of my life.’The entire crew did an extraordinary job. This was great teamwork, with everyone doing their part. ‘After landing, I immediately went to the mother and the newborn child to welcome him to the world.’
Desislava started experiencing premature labour pains after the flight took off from Bogota at 9pm on Tuesday.
Several passengers were moved to the front of the plane, while the back of the aircraft became an impromptu delivery room.
The entire delivery area was closed off with a privacy screen, and the birth was carried out without any complications.
6 Igbonla College boys reunite with their parents in Lagos. Photo Credit: NAN
65 days after the 6 students of Lagos State Model College, Igbonla, were abducted, they were reunited with their parents at the Lagos State Deputy Governor’s office in Alausa, Ikeja.
The freed boys are Peter Jonah, Isiaka Rahmon, Adebayo George, Judah Agbausi, Pelumi Philips and Farouq Yusuf.
The Igbonla students were received on behalf of the Lagos State Governor Akinwunmi Ambode by his deputy Idiat Adebule, who said the state would intensify security in public schools this holiday period, in time for the resumption of students.
The Igbonla students, who are reported to have been dropped in Aboto Creek in Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo State, were accompanied to Lagos by the Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu and his deputy Alfred Agboola.
The Igbonla pupils were said to have been expected earlier but were delayed by traffic on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
According to Punch, the kidnappers collected an additional ransom of N5m before the release of the students, bringing the total ransom paid to N37m.

Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State; and Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Alfred Agboola, during a news conference on the released kidnapped students in Lagos on Friday (28/7/17) night. 03887/29/7/2017/Supo Olosunde/BJO/NAN
Twenty suspected kidnappers were also reported to have lost their lives in a gun duel.
A civilian JTF was also killed in the battle, with four others suffering various injuries.
Eight policemen were also said to be wounded, all receiving medical attention at the hospital.
Moruf Ramon, whose 19-year-old son, Isiaka, was among the rescued students thanked the Lagos State Government and the Nigerian Police for their efforts.
He said:
I am so happy with what is happening today and I want to appreciate the Lagos State Government and the Commissioner of Police for all they have done to secure the release of our children.
I have been the one talking with the kidnappers all the time and the police were always with us to get information that could help to facilitate the rescue operations.
We pray that this kind of incident will not occur again in Lagos State or even Nigeria as a whole.
Another parent, Beatrice Jonah, said it was a traumatic experience for her family. She said:
When I spoke to my son after the abduction, I was weeping because I was afraid for his life.
To me it has been 65 days of trauma but we thank God he is back safely.
A parent who spoke to Punch on the condition of anonymity said he celebrated the release with two bottles of beer.
“I am someone who likes fun, but I had to refrain from having fun since the children were abducted. But after I heard the news, I went to a hotel near my house and had a good delicacy with two bottles of beer. I am extremely happy,” he said.
Dapo Adesagha, Phillips’ father also said:
It was unbelievable. I am very excited. Our sorrow is over. I have been receiving so many calls and congratulatory messages from people. We appreciate everybody that stood by us.
The Lagos State Deputy Governor Idiat Adebule told NAN:
We commend the efforts of the Nigerian Police, particularly, the Lagos Command and other security agencies for their efforts in ensuring the safe return of these children.
We commend the Ondo State Governor and his deputy for their support and collaboration toward the rescue operation.
We appreciate the Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, for his invaluable intervention in ensuring that we have these children brought back to us.
Now that the children are back, the government will commence a comprehensive checkup on these children — physically, mentally and psychologically. This is very necessary.
And in debriefing them, we will be involving other stakeholders, including their parents to ensure that it is effective.
We appreciate that 64 days was a long time to get these children back but it was in the interest of their safety.
As a government, we will continue to work diligently to ensure the security of lives and property in the state. It is a must for us to deliver on the issue of security.
As for security in our schools, we are working and putting all necessary measures in place before the resumption of schools for the next session.
Akeredolu thanked the Acting President Yemi Osinbajo for his involvement in the case. He said:
We must appreciate the role of the Acting President in this matter because he was the first person that contacted us in Ondo last month. Gov. Ambode was also in touch all the time.
We promised them that we will make efforts, but then we did not believe that these children could be in the creeks of Ondo.
My Deputy, however, waded into the matter because he is from the creeks.
In collaboration with the Delta Government, the Navy, Army and Marine Police, we did all that was humanly possible to secure the release of the students.
Ondo State has Zero tolerance for crime. You cannot use our creeks as safe haven for crimes anymore.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police Fatai Owoseni also thanked the South-West governors for their support.
He said one of the kidnappers of the Igbonla boys had been arrested in Abeokuta, and the police hopes it will lead to the arrest of more of them.
He said:
This is one operation that will send fear to criminals as they will know that our governments in the South-West are committed to security and there will be no place for criminals in the region.
During the course of the operation, 20 of the kidnappers, including the leader of that kidnap, Bright Adeniyi, were killed when they ambushed the operatives of the marine police and civilian volunteers.
We lost a civilian volunteer, while four were wounded. Eight policemen were also injured and all these people are receiving medical treatment under the care of the state government.
So far, we have arrested one suspect who has been swindling the parents of the children.
He was arrested in Abeokuta when he asked the parents to drop some money. I’m sure others will be arrested soon and they will face the full wrath of the law.
A driver, Sunday Lawal, 33, who allegedly obtained three bottles of Hennessy and food valued at N75,000 from a bar attendant under false pretences, was on Friday arraigned in an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court.
The accused, who resides at Bola Ajibola Street, Ikeja, Lagos is standing trial on a two-count charge of obtaining under false pretences and breach of peace.
He pleaded not guilty.
The prosecutor, Insp. Raji Akeem, told the court that the accused committed the offences on July 9, at Royal Club, Oba Akran, Ikeja.
He said that the accused fraudulently obtained three bottles of Hennessy and food for himself and his friends at the club on the pretext that payment would be made after eating and drinking.
Akeem said that the complainant, Oluwaseyi Joseph, claimed that when he approached the accused and his friends to pay after eating, they started making flimsy excuses.
The prosecutor said that the accused claimed that there was a problem with his ATM card and he did not have enough money to pay for the drinks and food he bought.
He said that Joseph immediately notified his manager that the accused and his friends had refused to pay their bill after eating.
Akeem said the manager immediately notified the police, who arrested Lawal and took him to the station for further questioning.
The offences contravene sections 166 and 314 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
The Section 314 prescribes a 15-year jail term for obtaining under false pretenses.
The Magistrate, Mr T.O Shomade, granted the accused bail in the sum of N50,000 with one surety in like sum.
It was a great re-union for a 62-year old woman who recently got married to her 75-year old lover as her children gave her out to the man for marriage.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the woman simply known as Geraldine from Isoko got married to Mr. Joshua from Urhobo in Delta State after their children consented to the marriage.
The marriage reception took place at Agbara where the woman lived with one of her children, while she moved to her new husband’s place after the marriage at Omiyale in Ejigbo, Lagos.
It was gathered that Geraldine separated from her husband after they had five grown up children while Mr Joshua lost his wife seven years ago.
It was learnt that they were lovers in their youth days and Jehovah Witness teachers before they separately married.
The marriage between Geraldine and Joshua started after the former love birds met at Agbara, expressed their emotions and resolved to convince their children to consent to their marriage.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that after their discussion, Geraldine first called her children and told them that she was lonely and needed a man that will take care of her emotional needs since she has separated from her husband.
She also reportedly told them that she had a lover before she married their father and the lover lost his wife some years ago and was also lonely.
She said since both of them were lonely, it was better for her to marry the man so that they will take care of each other.
It was gathered that the children were initially against the decision but when their mother threatened to kill herself if they did not support her, they soft pedalled. Thereafter they consented and gave her to Joshua as wife.
On the side of the man, it was the same thing because the children saw it as adding extra burden to the family but had no choice than to consent to make the man happy again.
When P.M.EXPRESS visited the new couple and asked to know how they were coping with the marriage, they said it was easy for them to settle down because they have known each other over the years.
On their sex life, the man said they were slowly active and declined to make further comments.
Wale Ojo, a Nigerian born and American-based actor gave a reason why actors marry each others.
While granting interview with HipTV, Wale Ojo revealed that he is such a traveler that does not stay in a particular place for a long time in spite of the demands of his career.
“I have been to five countries in past months. I don’t stay in one place at a time”, he said.
He attributed the reason why actors marry each other in the industry to the need to understand each other as the need to shoot movies take them on various tours often times.
He cited the instance of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who were both American actors, that got married in 2014 but got separated after two years.
A young female suicide bomber has been apprehended in Konduga Local Government Council of Borno by security operatives in the area.
Satomi Mustapha who lives in Konduga said that the suspected Boko Haram suicide bomber was nabbed by security operatives at an Internally Displaced Persons IDP camp.
It is clear that Boko Haram terrorists are now using innocent girls who might not even know what they are doing to kill people. Those living in Borno state have been urged to be vigilant as such girls are now used for suicide missions.
On several occasions, popular blogger, Kemi Olunloyo, has taken it upon herself to bash the baby of ace Nigerian comedian, Seyi Law, calling her several names including being obese. At a time, Olunloyo went as far as comparing the toddler with the cartoon character, Droopy.
Despite all she has said about his child, it seems the comedian has chosen to be the bigger man. In an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, the comedian said he holds no grudge against someone people perceive to be his enemy.
He said he actually sees brilliance in Olunloyo. He said,
“I don’t have any grudge against Kemi Olunloyo. The truth is that I see a lot of brilliance in her but it is just that her way of doing things without having ethical values is what makes people get pissed at her.
If she had initially written something like I saw Seyi Law’s daughter’s picture and I think he should watch the weight of his baby so that she doesn’t become obese, that would have been better because it is a piece of advice. It is a better approach and not calling my baby obese without having the necessary precautions like taking the baby’s weight, height, eating routine and other things.
If she had done all these things before coming to the conclusion that my baby is obese, that would have been medically fine. If we were in the US or UK; providing a baby’s medical report on social media without the approval of the parents, I know what it entails and the amounts she would pay as fine.
The cyberspace is not limited to a country, it is worldwide. She claims to be a citizen of the US and my child is a US citizen. I could decide to sue her in the US and she would pay out of her nose. She could even be the one to pay the money that would send my child to school.
Some people are brilliant but they take their stupidity to an extent that they ruin themselves along the line. Brilliance without caution would make you become foolish.
This woman can be very good sometimes with some of her reports and she could be blunt at other times with her write-up and we appreciate that but when you operate as a person, you need to be careful with your choice of words. If you want to be blunt, it has to be with evidence. You don’t just say you are blunt by writing falsehood and that is where she has a problem.”
Former Niger Delta militant leader, Mujaheed Asari Dokubo has weighed in on the alleged $90 billion fraud charge levelled against Nigeria’s former minister of Petroleum, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
In a video published on social media platform, Facebook, Dokubo, branded President Buhari and his cabinet members as liars.
He stated that if Madueke had looted $90 billion at the current exchange rate and returned it as widely reported, the government would not need to borrow from foreign institutions to finance infrastructural development across the country.
Dokubo, who was visibly angry, accused Buhari of embezzling N30 billion naira from the oil sector when he was petroleum minister and head of the PTDF fund under the Late Abacha regime. He also lampooned music artists, Davido and Donjazzy for condemning the former minister without first seeking the truth.
Quoting him;
“Nigeria is now a country of liars, ruled by liars, and managed by liars. How can somebody just wake-up and claim Diezani embezzled $90 billion? Multiple that amount of dollars with the value of one dollar to the Naira and tell me what the sum is.
How much is the Nigerian budget? If Diezani actually embezzled such an amount of money and has returned the loot, why is the federal government still trying to borrow money for infrastructure development?
Buhari can lie. He lies like a fish. All the people around him are liars. How much did Buhari loot from the NNPC during his time as Petroleum Minister? N2.8 billion.How much did he loot from PTF during his time as Chairman of the fund? Okadigbo panel said he embezzled N25billion.
“Those without character are accusing others of lacking character.If Diezani really stole what she is accused of stealing, let them prove it against her. Then that… that calls himself Don Jazzy will open his mouth… Davido, children will open their mouth. Davido has not talked about his uncle Isiaka Adeleke; Bola Tinubu; Fashola; even Awolowo.From where did Awolowo make his fortune?”
Captain E, the son of the renowned actor, Omotola Jalade has revealed how he started music at his very tender age.
In a conversation with Hiptv, the 19-year-old boy said he got inspired by the beat of an HipHop artiste while he was in secondary school and spurred him to produce a similar beat.
Captain E also revealed that he has always been inclined to music since he was young as he grew up playing all kinds of instruments like Guitar, Piano and Saxophone.
In an interview with Nigerian Tribune‘s Newton-Ray Ukwuoma, rapper and video director Abdul Rasheed Bello popularly known as JJC Skillz and husband of award-winning actress Funke Akindele Bello disclosed how he met his wife, his career, and family life.
He also disclosed that his music is on hold as he is focusing on his movie directing career with two major productions Jenifa’s Diary and Industreet.
When asked if he had taken a break from music, he said: “Yes. My music is on hold, because I needed to focus on this great opportunity that came to my doorsteps. Jenifa’s Diary is a big project, you can see we have been winning awards here and there. We as a family, have our hands full already in different productions.”
He disclosed that he had certificates in TV and video production, and had worked in that industry for 2 years.
“I actually studied TV and Video Production in school. After my studies, I went on to take on MVQ course; which is like a work training course. I had 9 straight A’s during the course from script writing, directing, all. I did it so passionately, I came out with distinctions. Because of my grade, I was able to get a job with an amazing advertisement company. I was their assistant editor and worked there for 2 years. So, I had a background in entertainment, directing, editing, it’s what I studied and it’s now my profession. But I left all that for music,” JJC Skillz said.
See excerpts:
What are the challenges of film production, directing?
It hasn’t been easy, but God has been there for us.All I can say is he who findeth a wife, findeth a good thing and obtained favour from the Lord. Most times, as a single man you carry almost all your burdens alone. You’d have to worry about what you eat, and my cooking skillz it’s not really that fantastic. But when I found my wife, I knew I had found my better-half. Now, when I think about things, I share it all with my wife. We wake up from same bed in morning and head to our field, because we are both in entertainment. She’s the actress, script writer. I’m the director, editor. She’s very hard working. I don’t know anyone like us in this industry. She works day and night. We wake up every single day, with the mind set of making ourselves happy. So, challenges are nothing to me anymore.
As busy as you have described your wife and as budding as your skills are in cooking, how does your wife still have time to cook for you? Or doesn’t she?
Why not? Yes, she does. It is said that the best way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Definitely, she cooks amazingly, but I told her to stop, so she can get enough rest. Most times, she would insist, because she wants to take care of her man. But I always insist, as we now have chefs.
Was it her cooking skillz that attracted you to her?
My wife is a fantastic cook, she’s an amazing woman. Everything about her attracted me to her. It’s not only one thing that attracts a man to a woman, but definitely, the cooking is a plus and my wife has it all. I would want to eat her meals for the rest of my life.
So, how does it feel being married to a popular actress?
To be honest, I lived the better part of my life in the UK, so I didn’t really know who Funke Akindele was. When I met her, I just met someone that wanted a director for her TV show; Jenifa’s Diary. That was in 2013. We have been going on for a long time, people just found out in 2016. We were very low keyed, because we are two popular people in the entertainment industry. We had to protect our privacy.
He also debunked rumours that he had a quarrel with his cousin Moe Musa, which led to Moe leaving his house.
“Those who instigated such reports are very stupid! People just say and publish whatever they want without proper investigations and still get away with it. Mr. Moe Musa as at then moved to the next block after mine. I lived in block H, while he is in block G. I spoke with the agents that got him the apartment and he moved in. He used to be in a room in my 3 bedroom apartment, so when my relationship got serious, he moved on. That’s not even the main reason. Moe has been in Nigeria then for almost 6 months, so he felt it was time to get his own place.
To be honest, when you first relocate to Nigeria, you’ll find it very hard to stay alone because you don’t understand the system yet. The way things work in Nigeria is different from the way they work in other countries. Moe stayed with me for a while, so he could get used to the Nigerian system. How to get food, how generator works and other confusing stuffs,” he said.
He also talked about Olayode Juliana (Toyosi in Jenifa’s Diary) leaving the series.
I don’t know why Toyosi left and it has nothing to do with me. Just like any character in a TV series, she can go and return. The only permanent character in the series is Jenifa. Falz has gone and came back, Toyosi has gone and maybe would come back. In the script, Toyosi is married and has gone to France with her husband to live for a while. So, anything can happen. When she comes back, you’d see her on screen, if not, then that’s what the script said.
How did you meet Funke Akindele?
She wanted someone to direct her TV series, then I was about to embark on recording the JJC album then. Her sister introduced us, because she knew I was into music video directing. So, when I met her, she told me she did a movie sometime ago and would like to turn it into a TV series. We started working together and preparing for the shoot, then one thing led to another. Here we are today, the rest is history. We just clicked.
It sounds like love at first sight.
Well, I would say so, because first time I saw her, I was wowed. She also told me the same thing. We tried to keep the whole work as professional as possible but along the line, emotions ran high.
How was the proposal? Bank W’s style?
[Laughs] I’m a romantic person, so I gave her a dose of it. It wasn’t in an open place, because only very few people knew at then.So, that very day, she came home to meet flowers, candles everywhere; quite a romantic set up. When she saw it, she had no choice than to say ‘Yes’.
You are both celebrities, how do you succeed in maintaining your private life?
Private life, work life, we take it all one day at a time. We don’t worry about outsiders and what they would think, we just do what pleases us. Every single day, we say our prayers and talk about how the day would go. It’s quite a unique and complimentary relationship and I’m enjoying every bit of it.

How did your kids accept their new step mum?
Well, before we got married in London, we all had a good relationship here in Nigeria. The kids were always seeing this beautiful woman around daddy, and she always makes him happy. They might be away and in different continents, but they are part of our daily activities. She is also very close to them, they met her digital first. They didn’t know she is an actress then, because in the UK, they hardly watch Nigerian movies, but they love her so much. They all love each other. It’s a perfect blend.
I remember my daughter telling me, ‘Dad make sure you marry her. She’s a keeper’. And I did, I followed my daughter’s advice.One of my songs, Save The Last Dance’ was written for my wife, she really saved the last dance for me.
