After Fathia openly called him a liar and said they are in
court, Saheed has also accepted they are in court. He released a press statement
few hours ago, where he made it clear to the public that he has two kids
together with Fathia and not three. We all believed they have three kids
together, but Saheed is saying, the first child isn’t his but from Fathia’s previous
marriage.Read the press statement below.
Read press statement released by Saidi Balogun, a few hours
ago, about the brouhaha going on between himself and his ex-wife, Fathia
Balogun - Yesterday I was accused of lying to the press on a recent rumor that
has been circulating. I separated from my ex-wife Fathia Balogun in 2006, over
7 years ago. Since we were LEGALLY MARRIED IN COURT, we had to LEGALLY DIVORCE
IN COURT to finalize the issue. The public is welcome to go to the Lagos High
Court to verify these records. This has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY NAME!
I AM NOT ASKING OR FORCING FATHIA TO STOP USING THE NAME BALOGUN, as it is one
of the most common Yoruba names.
Furthermore, to set the record straight, Fathia and I had
TWO children together NOT THREE. Fathia's first child is from a different
husband that she later divorced before we were married.
I never lied to anyone. Journalists presented me with a
rumor that had no basis in fact, so I simply stated that I DO NOT WANT MY
PRIVATE LIFE MADE PUBLIC. IT IS MY PRIVACY AND CONCERNS NOBODY. I decided to
stay quiet as the two parties involved in this issue are over 40 years old, and
I think we are old enough to handle this issue MATURELY instead of turning our
private matters into a public gossip debate.
I hope this issue is now clarified for the public, as I
SAIDI BALOGUN am divulging the true facts myself instead of using a MISINFORMED
publicist to do so for me. There are so many positive aspects of Nigeria's
entertainment industry, we would rather focus on negative meaningless noise
instead of these positive components.
PLEASE GIVE ME THE RESPECT OF KEEPING MY PERSONAL LIFE PRIVATE AND OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE. I AM FOCUSING ON MY WORK. THANK YOU!
