“...And in the bid of trying to make my marriage work, I found out I was pregnant again. And this time, the situation was worse because my husband (ex) was gone even while we were together.

With no medication, with no attention, I had my baby in a room because I took courage from the Hausas living behind our house because they had their kids in the room and I felt I could also do the same and I didn’t care and when she came, I fainted because I lost a lot of blood and my husband couldn’t take me to the hospital at that time but God saw me through… ”

*****Everyone has a story to tell and I am amazed she went through this and is so calm and does not post a rant every day.... I pray she finally finds closure to move on from this painful story......I almost joined her in crying.....
Oh iyabo....This is so emotional 😢
ReplyDeleteShe went through all these and she is cool and calm
God gat you.... Stay strong mama Fespris
Hmmmmmmmmm and all I can do is sigh Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
DeleteGod bless you Iyabo Ojo, I remember when she lived in "Obanikoro" Lagos . May you enjoy the fruit of your labour. Thank you for being calm and an inspiration to many.
This made me cry oooo, strong woman. You deserve an award.
The things some women do, what of if things had gone wrong during delivery, chaaaaai🤔.
God bless this woman 👏🏾👍🏾😘🤗
How come she didn’t know the man didn’t love her until he told her so on the eve of their wedding? Abeggi.
ReplyDeleteIt's one thing to assume that your man may not really be in love with you, it's an entirely different thing for the man to say it out loud to you.
DeleteThe latter is lethal if you are not strong.
Don't be stupid na..... It's possible, the man only married her out of pity but she thought it was because of love,and she only found out it wasn't on her wedding night... Shey u no read?na WA... Sorry for the insult
Delete**wedding night?
DeleteStop spitting trash,if you don't have anything good to say to her,please don't say nothing. I pray you don't find yourself in that kind of situation....positive vibes please!!!
Delete@perxian, yes it hurts when he says it loud he doesn’t love you.
DeleteBut by his actions, you would know if your man loves you or not. It’s not something that can be hidden.
Most times, we get that feeling of not being loved but we choose to remain in denial.
In fact you can smell it when a man loves you or not.
I don’t believe everything I read on the internet these days.
I wish we could hear her ex’s side of the story. Some women like to lie to gain cheap sympathy.
how do you know someone that love you truly? just that the man was too blunt. I see him as a very weak man that think hurting other people will make him strong. most people that married from this side of world did not marry de true love but the grow to love the person their are married to.
DeleteSlutty chick it's obvious you are a child. I don't think you know some men even women can pretend. People marry for different reasons,some are forced.
DeleteI know a man whose young wife told him she never loved him and she has met someone in school she truly loves and wants to marry. She only married him because she needed to leave her house becos of abuse from her father. They already had a son and she still left.
Men can talk nonsense most times
DeleteHow old are you miss sluty, how market?
DeleteWill you go ans carry your social studies note and read now 😏😏😏
Sluty chick I feel like cursing you right now with that statement you made.What do you mean by how would she not know? Do you have an idea how much some men can pretend? The way they would treat you when you are dating will sweep you off your feet completely. You won't ever perceive it..I'm talking from experience. I went through this exact thing with my husband so much that when I saw this ugly side of him after marriage, I went into depression due to shock,developed high blood pressure at age 23 and still battling with that till today!I pray you don't get to meet men like iyabo ojo's husband. They ate demons...They break people rather than make them.
DeleteEyaaaah. She's indeed a strong woman. Even after all she went through she never stop her ex from being in the life if his children. The best revenge is success.
ReplyDeleteYou and I will not labour over our children in vain. I understand your pains Iyabo, just that in my own case I had a good support system from family.
ReplyDeleteSome men are scumbag.
Everyone really has a story that makes them cry hot tears at night. Tonto, calm down. It's well.
ReplyDeleteDear Stella, people heal differently, the fact that she doesn't rant daily doesn't mean that she is grieving.
ReplyDeleteOnijogbon anonymous 10:14, we don here you. Aburo Tonto 😏😏😏. So what has ranting done for radical for Sango, has it helped her situation? You sound like an example of those bad friends that keep encouraging their friends to go the wrong path
DeleteSo sad, it all ended in glory
ReplyDeleteshe found closure. - Success.
ReplyDeletelet no one take control of your life.
Everyone has a story!!!! I guess that's why it is so hard for women to fall in love in these hard times!
ReplyDeleteAlso, she didn't turn the children against the father, I think, cos I've seen pics of them visiting him.
ReplyDeleteTonto see another woman o!
And yea,a man like that totally deserves the open love of his children.
DeleteMeanwhile,what does Tonto have to do with this post?
The lord is your strength...
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmm women are passing through things all in a bid of trying to find love and marriage.
ReplyDeleteI have had my own share of relationship turmoils. Infact at 36 I am single again after trying out love once again and I found out some very awful things about him,he was also never emotionally available because of the battles he is facing. Had to take a leave for my sanity.
But pls we women need to be careful how we get pregnant for men. Despite my age i still believe in doing it right. You can easily leave a bad relationship as I have done when there is no ties,no pregnancy involved.
God will visit you. It is how well that matters, not how quick. Be still and know He is God. Peace.
DeleteStop believing everything you read online. This is a lie from the pit of hell. That man is a responsible man. The story is different from what she's saying. P.S I know the man's family one on one
ReplyDeleteEven u know his family n he appears responsible, have u lived with him? Have u spent a night with him?
DeleteOya send your version to Stella or hold your peace. Responsible man yet his kids who are old enough to celebrate him have never done so
DeleteShut the fuck up! If you know the man’s family so what? Were you in the marriage with her? Why are Nigerians like this?
DeleteOya send your version to Stella or hold your peace. Responsible man yet his kids who are old enough to celebrate him have never done so
DeleteOk ma, it is lie and we agree, tell us what happened? Tell us why shd had to raise 2 kids alone.
DeleteIs this not the same Unknown that said her husband abandoned her in his family house?
DeleteIt could be he wasn't there when they were growing up but as he has gotten older he is now mature and responsible.
DeleteDoesn't mean he was always there and Iyabo is lieing. What will be her gain ?
Let the man come out and dispute
It.
All those crying please I have handkerchiefs. This might be over 20 years, why now.
ReplyDeleteIt has been said don't use pregnancy to hold a man.
Happy she is in a better place. She should enjoy life
I cried too , hishe went through pains,she is a strong woman
ReplyDeleteDeep down every woman can tell if the man they are dating truely cares or not, deep down we all know the truth but sometimes when that truth isnt favorable we choose to ignore it in hope that things may change in our favour one day.
ReplyDeleteShe saw the signs but ignored it.
I know there are some Bv's on this table forcing themselves on a guy...PLEASE STOP IT,find yourself someone that will love you genuinely so that you won't end up with a story like iyabo ojo...May God give us all the grace to leave bad relationships
LEP😛
Its starts with " I love him and I THINK he loves me too" meanwhile d guy no love o.
Delete💯 true @LEP
DeleteBlackberry you see that word
Delete"I THINK HE LOVES ME" is just recipe for disaster and some girls will foolishly think they can change a man or force him to love them
LEP😛
LEP you're very right dear, we actually see the signs but we choose to ignore, thinking that things will change someday. I used to be like that until I met someone who truly love and it was obvious. I now realized that I was just living in fantasy all those while.
DeleteHave learnt not to judge based on one sided story....
ReplyDeleteEya. Thank God it ended well.
ReplyDeleteBefore mentioning Tonto, remember her ex husband didnt go about granting interviews, maybe she wont be this quiet if the men went about bad mouthing her!
Please please this is not about Tonto abeg, don't bring her case up here.
DeleteAnon, people brought up Tonto before Miss Aboki's comment nau.
DeleteWicked man. You don't love a woman,but you can lay with her till she becomes pregnant.
ReplyDeleteThe Lord compensated her with success
ReplyDeleteI don't think I will ever ever condemn her !!!
ReplyDeleteI now have mad respect for her!
The thing is alot of ppl you see do crazy stuff or are over the top they are that way because they are trying to mask a pain they are going through.
DeleteI read of a girl that slept around,slept with diff men everynight. She was actually doing it becos she was craving love and never wanted to be alone. She hated sleeping alone.
Anonymous 11.43
DeleteYou are right .
Women that sleep around are more often than not molested sexually when they were younger .
It takes counselling and God to set such women straight.
Strong woman.
ReplyDeleteEeyah..this is so touching. Thank God it ended in praise
ReplyDeleteMen sometimes challenges life throws at us ehen.
ReplyDeleteBuT when you come out ;u start asking yourself Lord did i gO through that.every rough road i have encountered in life;i have no regrets cos i know the only person who has the power to break me is ME.
Chaii this is Heartbreaking..
ReplyDeleteThe ones who were here begging the Chronicle poster of yesterday to keep her baby are here today faulting Iyabo's story. If she tells her story in 18 years time, you will use your rotten mouths to call her a liar. Who no fear una, no fit fear God.
ReplyDeleteAnon11.46, u de mind dem? Check very well, they’re all single & never found true love , not to talk of being in stable relationships. They fail to use all these chronicles as lessons to watch out for ,in their future endeavors, rather, they come here to insult & defame those who tell their stories. Do they even know what awaits them in future? Iyabo, u have a new fan here.
ReplyDeleteIyabo once gave an interview where she claimed that she’s from a well to do home. I’m wondering why her “well to do” parents allowed her to have her second child without medical attention and with 150 naira in her pocket like she said. I don’t understand all these celebrities again. That’s how Banky W too started forming poverty background during the election.
ReplyDeleteDo you realise she may have been enstranged from them. Maybe they never agreed to her marriage.
DeleteSome people don't go and meet their parents for help when they are married because of shame.
Shame when she could have died during childbirth? I’m not saying she’s lying, I just think some of our celebrities embellish their stories too much.
DeleteThat's how my husband told me none of his family members ever loved me.
ReplyDeleteHe too never did, he only loved my money and connection.
We are divorced right now.
