She’s Not My Wife, Obasanjo Disowns Woman Who Has 2 Kids For Him


Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has disowned a woman, Taiwo Martins, who claim to be his wife even as he admitted that she had two children for him.
“For the records, Ms. Martins has two children, Jonwo and Bunmi, for Chief Obasanjo but to say emphatically that she is not his wife nor a member of the Obasanjo family.
“Her posturing as Chief Obasanjo’s wife is false and that of an impostor.”
Obasanjo was reacting to Taiwo’s reported apology to Yoruba traditional rulers over the way Obasanjo spoke to them in Oyo State, ordering them to stand up and sit down.
The occasion the commissioning of projects in Iseyin in Oyo State by the state Governor, Seyi Makinde.
Reacting to the apology on his behalf by Taiwo Obasanjo described her as an impostor.
A statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Kehinde Akinyemi, today, September 18, said: “the attention of former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has been drawn to a statement purported to be issued by a wife of the President with the photograph of one Ms. Taiwo Martins as the author of the statement.
“Nobody makes statement on behalf of the Obasanjo family except Chief Obasanjo or people delegated by him to do so.
“It must be noted that the state of health of Ms. Martins is known to all and sundry and whatever she says or does has nothing to do with Chief Obasanjo as an individual or the Obasanjo family as a whole.
“However, the former President has affirmed that he stood firmly, unapologetically and uncompromisingly on the position that the Governor of a State holds the highest office in the State.
“By that position, the respect, protocol and dignity that must be given to the office by virtue of the Constitution must not be denied. To do otherwise is to deride the office and the Constitution.”
