Dora Kayode, the wife of Super Eagles player Olanrewaju Kayode, has strongly denied the allegations questioning the paternity of their children.
Earlier this year, the football star made headlines when he threatened to commit suicide after reportedly discovering his wife’s alleged infidelity with popular UK-based pastor Tobi Adegboyega.
Dora Kayode has now addressed recent claims suggesting that the Nigerian forward is not the biological father of their three children.
Reports circulating in the Nigerian media indicated that Kayode had conducted a DNA test, which purportedly revealed that the children were the result of his wife’s alleged extramarital affair.
Responding to these reports, Dora, through an official letter written by her lawyers and addressed to her husband, dismissed the allegations as “baseless and humiliating,” asserting that they were made with the intent to damage her reputation and harm the children.
In the letter, Dora stated, “no DNA test has ever been carried out on any of the children, as you well know. However, our client is willing and ready for such a test to be immediately conducted by a reputable and neutral instituition or facility if you so desire”.
She also accused Kayode of orchestrating the smear campaign, citing his silence since the rumors emerged as evidence of his involvement.
The mother of three demanded that the footballer issue a public disclaimer with 24 hours of receiving the letter. Failing this, she would seek full custody of their children in the ongoing divorce proceedings.
She wrote; “Honestly, I am soo soo tired of this man’s nonsense, and it has to stop now. I knew he was not mentally stable when he pulled out a knife on me some months ago, but to go as far as ruining the lives of innocent kids is way too far.
Kayode, I didn’t think you would go that low.
I have kept quiet on all the rumours you have been spreading because they are baseless, childish and false. But you include innocent children? No, NOW I MUST speak.
I have never sold any of my properties or cars and given the proceeds to any Pastor, Bishop or Imam in this world. Infact, ALL the rumours this mentally disturbed young man, Kayode is sharing online are all FALSE.
The last couple of years in this marriage have been like hell on earth. I am so drained, in pain and I just honestly pray this ordeal is all over soon. I do not wish this kind of abuse and oppression on ANY woman anywhere in the world. If your story is similar to mine, run away from that man, leave that marriage, you are not stuck! And I pray that God will heal you and send helpers your way like he has to me.”
