Nigeria: Obasanjo’s Son Begs Estranged Wife for Forgiveness, Reconciliation After Stalled Divorce
“My deepest desire is for reconciliation, healing and restoration of what was lost. I recognise the role I played in the challenges we faced…”
Olujonwo Obasanjo, the son of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, has sought forgiveness from his estranged wife, Temitope, and is calling for reconciliation after a divorce process.
In May 2017, Olujonwo married Temitope, the daughter of billionaire businessman Kessington Adebutu, owner of Premier Lotto, popularly known as ‘Baba Ijebu. ‘
