Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Folorunso Alakija set to be a divorcee as Nigerians are asking ‘What went wrong with her 30 years of marriage with her husband?’.
Her health challenge became more pronounced when one of her sons tied the knot early last year and very unlike the Alakijas of old, there was little or no noise about the marriage ceremony. During the wedding, the media was tactically controlled, photographers were not allowed to take pictures arbitrarily and anyone found doing so was asked to delete them. The planning of the wedding was on a need-to-know basis and guests who got the invitations were well scrutinized.
Nigeria’s richest woman, Folorunsho Alakija, and her husband of 30 years, Modupe Alakija, have parted ways, according to a report by TheWill.
The mother of four and the businessman allegedly no longer live together in their matrimonial home in highbrow Ikoyi, Lagos.
The couple were alleged to have been having frequent squabbles which allegedly necessitated the wealthy woman to demand utmost privacy in her home. Her husband was forced to seek accommodation elsewhere.
He allegedly lives alone within the same Ikoyi neighbourhood.
Sources reveal that it has not all been smooth sailing for the couple these past few years and they have allegedly been forced to put up a united front because of their status in the society, the report added.
