One of the veteran actors in Nigeria, Taofeek Salami popularly known as Tioruju Mondusi, has given insight to how he got to know that two of his children were not his biological children.
He said the discovery which took place in court was one of his saddest moments in life as his late wife openly told him in front of the Judge that he was not the father of the two children, stressing that the unfortunate incident involving his late wife was indeed the most painful experience of his life.
Mondusi, who stated these during an interview on the African A-List podcast, further said that his late wife confessed in open court that two of their five children were not his.
In the words of Mondusi; “My late wife’s confession came amid a legal battle following her affair with another man.
“The only person that did the most painful thing to me in life is my late 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 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. It was when I visited her mother’s house to complain that I realised she had done an introduction with another man who was married with four kids.
“After seeing the photo frame, I called to insult her. That was when she came to the house to rain insults on me and asked who told me that I’m the owner of the pregnancy.
“She gave birth a few days later, but surprisingly, she requested to do the naming ceremony in my house after she had openly said the baby was 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, abandoned her to face his family because he was married with four children before the incident. The man is from Ijebu in Ogun State,” he narrated.
