They lost that loving feeling and the magic that imbues marriage with bliss; little wonder Mohammed Babangida, scion of the Ibrahim Babangida dynasty and his first wife, Rahma, the daughter of billionaire businessman Mohammed Indimi got separated.
Though Mohammed and his friends are keeping the news close to their chests, it is already a common topic of discourse in high society circles. We gathered that Mohammed is especially sad and shocked about how things degenerated to the point of separation between them. But he is taking solace in the fact that nothing happens without the imprimatur of the Almighty.
What is said to be giving the easy-going son of Nigeria’s former military president happiness is Umuani. They are happily married as you read. Umuani was the first woman Mohammed ever fell in love with. Though he would later get married to Rahama, he didn’t stop thinking of Umuani and what life would be like as her husband.
Four years into his marriage to Rahma, Mohammed had announced to the world his decision to take a second wife. And trust the Babangidas whose wealth and vast contacts have earned them a prime place among the world’s aristocrats; they stopped at nothing to make the marriage a grand affair. Mohammed is not just any son; he is the heir apparent to the Babangida dynasty. With Ivy League education, impressive strides in the corporate world, his parents knew if he decided on a second wife, then, that was what he wanted. They gave him all their support.
Today, Mohammed Babangida’s ex wife, Rahma Indimi, has reacted to the leaked audio of Mohammed and his wife purportedly posted by her – says she wasn’t the one who leaked it and doesn’t support the action too. She posted the response on her Instagram page. Read it below:
“It is rather unfortunate that people you confide in can just go through your phone and post such an embarrassing audio of you know who. It is no secret that we have been divorced and I did not hide it. He is the father of my children and I do respect him. The leakage of the audio was done in poor taste so people pls stop tagging me. I had nothing to do with it.someone thought it should be out there and I disagree. What goes on in his house is his Business and not mine.My advise is just watch what you say and to whom you say it to. I wish them nothing but happiness. I have done so in the past and I will continue to do so. May Allah help us and guide us. Ameen.”
