Nigerian star actress, Foluke Daramola’s husband, Nigerian politician, Kayode Salako, whom she married around 2010 has confirmed that he married a new wife named Oluwafunke Oyegoke-Salako.
Kayode Salako was earlier rumoured to have fathered a child with another woman.
Confirming the rumour in a recent Facebook post, Salako noted that his wife, Foluke, was supportive of his decision to have a child with Oluwafunke.
His words:
“Dear Nigerians, FOLUKE IS INVOLVED!
It took me 3 years of begging Foluke Daramola-Salako, my wife, to allow me have at least one, or two children of my own here in Nigeria, for the purpose of the security of my old age.
I do not know when I will go back to where I came from, but it is my wish to grow old.
I have been telling my creator that 100 years is when I love to go (Laughs).
I am already above 50 years, and I don’t want to be 70 years, and still continue to live alone, without children around me, especially to run my life with, and to send on errands at old age.
I love children and I love to live with them.
I don’t want to grow old and be looking for children to send to buy me things around the neighborhood.
I eventually got her understanding about it, through the help of Foluke’s mum, about 4 years ago.
And Murewa Omowonuola (Ayinde) Salako is the product of that understanding.
He is 3 years + now.
The first three children I have, have long been taking away and living with their mother in America.
They are now grown up men, and may possibly, not come to Nigeria to live with me like that again.
I had been living alone here, and ‘omo odo’ (house girl, or house boy) is different from ‘omo eni’ (my own child).
No matter what you do, ‘omo odo’ too, would go, one day, to run the affairs of his/her life.
Foluke is a film producer and social celebrity, who hardly stays at home. She is a very busy woman, and do a lot outside the home for her own survival.
I have been married and living with her for over 13 years now, but God has not given us our own love child yet. She saw reason with me after a while, and said you can go ahead.
However, with a warning that she doesn’t want that to happen with a ‘rash’ and socio-characterly crude woman.
She said she wanted a well brought up young woman, that she could relate with like her own younger sister.
Oluwafunke Oyegoke-Salako from Ogbomosho, is that woman Nigerian bloggers have been talking about since last year on social media, and Oluwamurewa Omowonuola (Ayinde) Salako is the boy she has had for us.
When Murewa was 1 year old, it was Foluke herself, who celebrated it for him with her money and time resources.
Murewa comes to spend weekends in the house, where I live with Foluke, and Foluke treats him like her son.
Of course, Murewa is Foluke’s pet child here in Nigeria, as all our five children are currently abroad.
Foluke and Funke are doing well together as buxom sisters.
Now, I am happy, and I have peace with my life.
My older children in America; their mother and I, are now doing well together.
We have resolved all our issues.
This response is to throw light on the trending issue and to socially correct any misleading belief on this subject matter.
Foluke has been involved from beginning. It happened with her understanding and permission.
Happiness is the reason every human should be living.
Now, I am happy.
Thank you.
Let me add this: I don’t want to grow old and be living miserably in solitude. I want to live and die around one, or two children of my own.
I know a 73 year old man, who died miserably like that many years ago, when all his 7 children, who were abroad, abandoned him to live all alone here in Nigeria.
