Benedicta Elechi, the wife of controversial media personality Daddy Freeze, has offered her perspective on the recent court ruling that upheld a N5 million fine against her husband for allegedly depriving her ex-husband, Paul Odekina, of companionship due to their affair.
The Court of Appeal’s decision was disappointing for Daddy Freeze, who has been under scrutiny for his relationship with Benedicta and the timing of their romance.
In her statement, Benedicta clarified that she started her relationship with Daddy Freeze during her divorce proceedings with Odekina, and not while still married to him.
Addressing the court’s ruling and rampant speculation, Benedicta said;
“You can put the adulteress tag on my forehead if divorcing my ex 12-years ago and starting a relationship before the end of my 10-year divorce lawsuit makes me an adulteress, I am going to wear that tag with pride on my forehead.”
“For every woman going through a divorce that believes that because our judiciary system takes 10-years and more to issue a divorce certificate, they don’t have the right to find love and move on with their lives, I am doing it for this women.
She went on emphasize that her decision to file for divorce stemmed from significant personal issues.
“I filed for the divorce 12-years ago and if you are trying to change the narrative and make it look like I was caught in adultery and he divorced me, that’s not the case. I filed for divorce because we have different sexual orientation,” she said partly.
