Sonia Adesuwa: Odion Ighalo’s ex-wife dragged for accusing him of having an affair with Nollywood producer amid Junior Pope’s death

“The news of this young man’s death is devastating. Funny enough during my social media outburst with my ex-husband last year, I saved all of his horrible words about me from Linda Ikeji’s blog and Instablog for future reference. I was like, does he know I’m the mother of Ighalo’s biological kids?
“Like carry man wey no concern you for head.
“Regrettably, he is no longer alive. Hmm.. This thing called life!
“Though I am aware that some so-called Edo celeb pushed the agenda. Rest easy, man. May God have mercy on you.
“This so-called quack Asaba producer was one of my ex-husband’s sidechics while he was in China. She runs a boutique.
“In this life, simply be good, kind and do good.”

Since Odion Ighalo and Sonia Adesuwa parted ways in 2022, the ex-WAG has constantly dragged the footballer on social media.
Having tied the knot in 2009, the pair initually parted ways in 2019, before eventually reconciling, only for the Adesuwa to divorce him without his consent in 2022.
Last year, Adesuwa said their marriage ended in 2019 but they reconciled two years later.
She alleged that Ighalo, one of the richest footballers in Nigeria, has been “fooling with different women” but she decided to be with him “lowkey”.
Adesuwa said she eventually “got tired” because Ighalo did not inform his family of their reconciliation.
“Separated 2019, got back 2021. I divorced him 2022 without his signature,” she said.
“He crawled back again I said okay for the sake of our children. We have been doing it lowkey despite his foolish display on Instagram with different women.”
Adesuwa had previously claimed Ighalo cheated on her with a BBNaija female celebrity, a Nollywood actress, and a famous disc jockey (DJ).
The ex-WAG also informed fans that she has since moved on to a new relationship and has kept her partner’s identity a secret ever since.
