Managing director of Eleganza Industrial City Ltd Shade Okoya has assured her husband Rasaq Okoya that she would never tarnish his image.
Mrs Okoya also prayed for her 84-year-old husband to live longer in an interview with Anne Nwaghodoh conducted to mark her 25th wedding anniversary.
The 47-year-old shared clips from the interview on Instagram on Saturday.
“My husband is my everything and that’s why when you see both of us together our relationship is beyond husband and wife,” she said.
“We’ve been through a lot together. For now, my prayer is that he’ll just live many more years. My husband is my own backbone and I pray for him that God will grant him many more years. He looks well. I’ve always given him all the respect he wants and I’ll never do anything to tarnish his name. He knows that, he trusts me.
“My generation will forever be grateful to him, my children will forever be grateful to him and I just pray that God will help us to be able to see to what we intend to do for him.”
Mrs Okoya said she goes to the factory all day of the work week, adding that she used to work part-time on Saturdays but for social events.
According to the mother of four, there are over 10 factories of Eleganza Group currently working.
In April, the socialite and her husband, the chairman of Eleganza Group of companies, hosted guests in Lagos at the celebration of her 47th birthday and their 25th wedding anniversary.
Mrs Okoya serves as director in various companies under the Eleganza Group.
