Why I dumped Farida Sobowale – Ex-husband, Odulaja breaks silence

Demola Odulaja, the estranged husband of the Chief Executive Officer of House of Phreedah Body Care, Farida Abdulkabir, popularly known as Farida Sobowale, has broken his silence on why his marriage to the Lagos socialite crashed.

IDOMA VOICE recalls that the marriage crumbled just after about two months of their talk-of-the town wedding.

In an interview with a Yoruba social commentator, ArewaTopeFamous, on Tuesday via Instagram Live, Odulaja alleged that the break-up was not unconnected to Sobowale’s alleged promiscuity, lies, and covetousness, among others.

Recall that Sobowale almost jumped into the lagoon at the Third Mainland Bridge, Lagos after the marriage failed but was prevented good-spirited NIgerians last week.

However, Odulaja declared that his association with Sobowale extended over a substantial span of 20 years but had become unstable owing to her “unrestrained and promiscuous way of living.”

While fielding questions on Sobowale’s allegation and label as a gigolo, Odulaja said, “I am extremely wealthy. I live in a 22-bedroom mansion in Gbagada.

“I am not a gigolo. I come from a wealthy home and have been flying first class long before now, people know me well in London,” he added.

“When I got back to Nigeria from London in 2009, Farida met me in Lagos in 2010. That same year, I took her to China to start an importation business which of course yielded results and was the beginning of her travelling.”
