Yoruba actor Taofeek Salami, aka Tioruju Mondusi, has shared an infidelity story that shook his family.
According to him, another man not only impregnated his (Salami’s) wife, she also had three children for the stranger while still under the actor’s roof.
Salami said the man later abandoned the woman, adding that she later died from the depression she suffered as a result of that abandonment.
During an interview on the African A-List podcast, the actor revealed that his wife confessed in court that two of their five children were not his.
According to him, the confession came amid a legal battle following her affair with another man.
He said: “The only person that did the most painful thing to me in life is my wife. The incident brought tears from my eyes.
She’s late now, may God forgive her.
“I went to a location about five years ago, and I didn’t meet her at home when I returned. As at the time, she was nine months pregnant with our fifth child. I was unable to reach her on the phone to know her whereabouts until two days later when her number went through. After getting in touch with her she refused to tell me her whereabouts.
“She gave birth a few days later and requested to do the naming ceremony in my house after she had openly said the baby is not mine. That was when I got angry and arrested her alongside the man and his friend that came to beg me.
“Following my refusal to allow the naming to take place at my compound, she took me to court for the dissolution of our marriage. It was in the court that she confessed that the third and the last child were not mine. She has been going out with the man for many years. She died last year from depression after the man she left me for later abandoned her to face his family because he is already married with four children before the incident. He is from Ijebu in Ogun State.”
