Obasanjo had, while issuing the command to the monarchs at a public event, noted that a governor is more powerful than any king.
With the ongoing controversy generated by Obasanjos treatment of the Obas, Madam Taiwo Martins, who claimed to be Obasanjo’s wife, issued an apology on his behalf...
Reacting to the apology, Obasanjo disowned her and insisted that he stands by his comments.
In a statement by his media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, on Monday, Obasanjo expresed annoyance that “one Ms. Taiwo Martins” has authored a statement, appealing to Obas and Yorubas to forgive him as her husband.
While conceding that the he and the woman gave birth to two children, Obasanjo stressed that she is not his wife, neither is she a member of his family.
“For the records, Ms. Martins has two children, Jonwo and Bunmi, for Chief Obasanjo but to say emphatically she is not his wife nor a member of the Obasanjo family.
“Her posturing as Chief Obasanjo’s wife is false and that of an impostor. Nobody makes statement on behalf of the Obasanjo family except Chief Obasanjo or people delegated by him to do so.
“The state of health of Ms. Martins is known to all and sundry and whatever she says or does has nothing to do with Chief Obasanjo as an individual or the Obasanjo family as a whole,” the statement said.
The statement added that Obasanjo has affirmed that “he stood firmly, unapologetically and uncompromisingly on the position that the Governor of a State holds the highest office in the State”.
“By that position, the respect, protocol and dignity that must be given to the Office by virtue of the Constitution must not be denied. To do otherwise is to deride the Office and the Constitution,” the statement added.

E reach to laugh

She only proved OBJ right by not consulting with him privately, before tendering a public apology on his behalf, without his consent. Only a concubine seeking attention, and relevance does that.
DeleteWhat!!!! This is the most disrespectful, disgusting piece I’ve read this year.
ReplyDeleteWife or not, she bore you two children. Even if you won’t respect her ordinarily, do so for the kids sake.
And what the hell is “the state of health”
I’m so disappointed in OBJ. Mtcheeeeeew.
Petty like a man.
DeleteHonestly
DeleteWomen should have some self respect. A man don't regard you, yet you force yourself on him.
DeleteRespect her for the kids you say? Did she respect him for the kids to stay out of his business. The former president has warned this woman on many occasions, the public is aware. Even when her son's marriage with baba ijebus daughter had issues, she was allover the place embarrassing him. If you know the story and how her brother Kenny Martin's who Obasanjo also helped has tried talking to her but like he said, her state of mind is known. Even the Obas know she no well. Attention seeking lady.
DeleteHer state of mind did not prevent him from impregnating her twice nor did it stop OBJ from moving her in after Stella died. Everyone should be calming down.
DeleteIt was not in her place to apologize on his behalf...Nobody made her his spokesperson. If she was the wife, what she would have done was call Baba privately and tell him his wrongdoing and then he or any rep can issue the apology....
ReplyDeleteThank you !
DeleteExactly
DeleteExactly, did Baba send her?
DeleteTrouble dey sleep, yanga go wake am.
ReplyDeleteDem no dey talk put inside Baba Iyabo matter.
ReplyDeleteWahala no de finish.
ReplyDeleteThe Woman sef no respect herself. Trust OBJ to go this route.
ReplyDeleteExactly. ITK Don disgrace her.
DeleteI like OBJ sha. Who sent her to tender an apology on his behalf? There is constitution and there is culture.
ReplyDeleteBLESS US ALL O LORD...CHEERS.
ReplyDeleteBLESS US ALL O LORD...CHEERS.
ReplyDeleteWahala,what a disrespect!!!
ReplyDeleteMadam you shouldn't have apologized on his behalf but OBJ for the sake of the children you both share you shouldn't have also disgraced her like this
ReplyDeleteFoolish woman indeed. Likely hasn't even seen or spoken to the man for years, idiotic clout chaser. Who are you to speak for the great whale OBJ, these uteruses that think success is sexually transmitted.
ReplyDeleteWahala be like wetin again lol
ReplyDeleteE be like bicycle e no day hard to start..
Delete🙄🙄🙄
ReplyDeleteNigeria is one week, one comedy. Na just to dey laugh o. If you follow this country matter eh, your destiny go resemble obasanjo face.
ReplyDeleteMadam, why did you go and apologise on behalf of baba iyabo?
ReplyDeleteOBJ has badmouth certificate since time immemorial. Now added grand Pa's certificate equal to "Take am as you see am"
ReplyDeleteHow can you people include yourselves in degenerating this woman?Obj erred in his statement to those Oba’s.He is not a sitting governor or president and the protocol he talked about isn’t accorded to him anymore.He’s an old bitter power hungry man and I am disappointed because yorubas are supposed to be the most respectful people.
ReplyDeleteNo matter how we drag am reach, that his statement is the fact. A governor is above every other person in a state, the same as the president.
DeleteObj with him bad mouth sha.
ReplyDeleteHe just exposed the woman as a baby mama to him, and not a wife.
...seems like the elders have taken over 🔥from Donald Duke Vs. Madam now this...
ReplyDeleteLeo inspired!
Anybody (especially woman) who keeps famzing or claiming a man who has not claimed her (by marriage) will continue to chop public embarrassments like this. Next time, she go dey her dey.
