“They even went to the extent of saying I got married to Obasanjo secretly. If he approached me to marry him, why would I keep it a secret? We would have made it public so that was funny.”

"Fela is a trickster. He knew I’d say no,” she said of Fela’s marriage proposal. “I think it was his way of thanking me for coming out in support of him when he was jailed.”

I don’t like talking about it but because you raised it and because I’d written about it, I have to expatiate.”

“The marriage was incredible, but sometimes, when things happen to people, they change. My husband, I pray for him on a daily basis.”
