Former minister of aviation Femi Fani-Kayode has said he covered his wife’s “madness” for seven years because he wanted to protect his children.
Mr Fani-Kayode stated this in an Instagram post on Sunday barely 24 hours after alleging he caught her in bed with another man.
“If she has any issues let her use the right medium as a responsible adult and mother and stop secretly feeding the media with damaging scandals geared towards the destruction of our children’s future,” he wrote.
“I have kept quiet in order to protect my children, I have covered all her madness over the past 7 years and not once did I expose her. But the facts are there and the witnesses and evidence are readily available for the courts.”
The embattled politician said he broke his silence on Saturday because his “hand has been forced”.
Fani-Kayode who has four sons with Chikwendu also alleged she leaked the video which appeared to show he was abusing her to the media.
“Acting is a professional field all on its own but thankfully so is law. Any and all videos, testimonies, documentation and other evidence coming from my end will only be displayed in court, where these issues can be resolved once and for all,” he added.
“If this person speaks the truth, they will be happy to meet me there, instead of peddling stories…”
