…how Yomi’s family kicked against his idea of naming her in his will
…how he lied that his kids were dead to collect loan
Few weeks after news of their high society marriage crash was made public, the trophy wife of Yomi Folawiyo, Bimbo finally moves out of her husband’s flat in Apapa.
The marriage which barely lasted for 4 years crashed even before it was made public. However, Bimbo Folawiyo has filed for divorce at the Lagos Magistrate Court.
In an interview with Citypeople, Bimbo made shocking and dirty revelations on the hiccups her marriage to Yomi had suffered before its final crash and why she finally decided to move out of their shared apartment.
Bimbo confirmed that Yomi moved out of the house 5 Months ago, but 2 days before he moved out, he confessed to her that he had offended her. He revealed how his family pressured him to write his will, acknowledging only his ex-wife and son in the will, leaving nothing to his daughter which he had with her (Bimbo) and herself who had stood by him through thick and thin. She revealed that since then, Yomi was not comfortable staying around the house anymore that was why he moved out.
Concerning the rumour that she married Yomi because of his Money, Bimbo said, “I don’t understand why people will think like that. I am also from a very rich family. Money is not a problem in the family I come from. All that I achieved today is as a result of my father’s efforts, my mother and my uncle Buruji Kashamu all assisted me in business.
Yomi can never say that he had assisted me in business. It is whatever he brings home that we manage, as his wife. It is not like he has a company or his own personal house. He works in his father, company. It is not like I have access to anything directly from him. It is not like I can walk into their company and say that I want this. Yomi has lied against me a lot. I don’t know why he is fond of lying. I have always loved my husband but I started getting worried when Yomi will go and take loans from people.
An instance was when he took loan from one Mr Femi Ajayi 3 years ago and he refused to pay back. Mr femi called me when I was in Dubai with my 2 daughters sympathising with me that I lost my daughters. His statement was “Epele Aunty,Emabinu pe mi pe yin , epele ti awon omoyin to ku“(Sorry I learnt you lost your daughters).
I was mad and he said Uncle Yomi borrowed money from him stating that we lost our daughters and needed money to buy casket. I told him my daughters are not dead and I will never bury my daughters in Jesus name. He explained further. I got so scared. I was inside the Emirate Mall in Dubai when I received the call. Funny enough, we all came to Dubai with Yomi and I told my first daughter to speak with the Uncle Femi and she spoke to him saying “Hello Uncle“.
Femi was shocked and he said how can somebody lie with his children and I said, you know what, my husband can never tell you that. I told him we were in Dubai together that I will talk to my husband when I get back to the hotel since I was sure he won’t tell him something like that. I was bitter and couldn’t shop again. I met Yomi in the bathroom and told him I want to see him. I asked did he take any loan from Mr Femi Ajayi and he said yes.”
On why she left the house. Bimbo revealed that she left so that she can move on with her life and take care of her daughters. She also discovered that her life and kids were in danger.
“I left because I had to move on with my life. I have 2 daughters and I have to move on so as to be there for them. My Life was in danger. When he left, he was still calling the security at the gate, passing messages across to them. He will pass messages to the electrician, the security. At a point, the socket in the house started shocking me and shocked the children.
I have pictures and evidence of all these things. I took pictures of them. Even the kitchen had a naked wire that was left open. There were times I would be returning home from the shop at 5pm and the security would lock me out. I was going through so much drama and embarrassment.
The children were locked in once and they couldn’t go to school. My daughter wanted to do common entrance and her lesson teacher was locked outside for 5 months. When I called the Manager of the property to help us fix all the sockets, he said Oga said nobody should enter your flat. I was living in a Flat in Folawiyo Towers in Apapa and not a mansion.
He said Oga said we should not fix the socket in your flat, so I said to myself; I am no longer safe here. I have children, my daughter will want to charge her phone herself, which means that he deliberately wants to kill my kids and I. I am surprised that Yomi could say to an online publication that he ran for his dear Life in an online interview.
For instance, ever since I knew Yomi, he had always had Hypertension and Diabetes; this can be proven by his medical history at the hospitals he visits. He has been claiming that he had Hypertension and Diabetes through me.
He has had them for over 14years even when I was not in the picture.
The records are there in his hospital at St Nicholas and Reddington and Yomi himself told me he has had Stroke twice even when his Dad was alive. He said he was taken to Redddington and when it didn’t work out, he was flown to London. I have slept on the floor of Reddington Hospital before. That was when he was hospitalised. There are lots of people with Hypertension and Diabetes all over the world but they live a healthy Life style. The reason I always quarrel with Yomi is because he has refused to stop drinking and smoking.
I have tried to curb and even go as far as praying and fasting for him. This is somebody I love so much and I should be able to go the extra mile for him. But Yomi will go and sit down at the Navy Bar and Lagoon Bar in Apapa from 2pm to 10pm at night. Sometimes people will call me to come and take him home.
However, to move on, the society woman, Bimbo has shut down her Victoria Island shop and moved out of the premises.
