His Online Post

Alongside a photo of himself and his wife on their wedding day, he wrote: 'I am stuck with two battles facing me at the moment: my pregnant mental mum under medication in my care, and my wife whom I spent millions of Naira to marry. I know she is my wife, and she is indeed an angel sent to console me. My mum told me about her when she was mentally unstable.

'Now she has regained herself, still on drugs because she is pregnant. My wife is not finding it funny. A lot are saying I should allow my wife to go. Some said I should take my mum to the village with her pregnancy, while some said I should go to the hospital and remove the baby.

'But in all this, I am really finding it difficult. I know a lot will judge me, be it good or bad, but I pray God helps me and directs me to the right path. Amen.'
