•Opens up on how he has moved on after the messy divorce
Last year, the messy divorce between John Fashanu and his estranged wife, Abigail Onyekwelu, cause a huge stir in Nigerian social scene. However, the duo have found a means to let go of the past, as it was rumoured that John Fashanu was set to walk down the aisle again with Isreal Edjren’s ex-wife.
Months after the scandalous divorce between the couple, the ex-footballer has opened up on his failed marriages, especially to the mother of former beauty queen, Abigail Onyekwelu and equally explained why he finds pleasure wearing made in Aba clothes. Fashanu recalled that he faced so many controversies following his divorce.
According to him, “five months ago it was about the divorce, but the lovely thing about it is that when the dust settles, you are able to shake hands and agree to move on without any showbiz interference”.
He added that, “Both of us are mature enough to move on with our lives. I have moved on four steps higher and I am sure the other party will step up and do wonderful things.
“In the world of showbiz, any publicity is good publicity. I always try to turn lemon into lemonade. I have always been a game changer. I am someone that takes an A and turns it into B”.
“People will always say things about you. Those things they say do not stop or end you. If there is anything, they give you more encouragement to prove to people that what they say is wrong,” he added.
Following the Made-in-Aba products exhibited in Abuja, the former Football star said, “I do not believe anybody in Nigeria should be hungry. It will be to our disadvantage if we continue to import goods from outside the country.
“A lot of my friends are surprised that most of my clothes are made in Aba, where some of the best tailors in Nigeria are located,” he noted.
