On
the report that his first wife cursed you, that’s why his marriage to
Fathia crashed and that he has not seen his first daughter, Zenat, that
you abandoned her to her mother
I wasn’t the only one
that was shocked when they posted it. I believe the whole world was also
shocked to read that kind of publication. Even the child they wrote
about was also shocked. It was a blogger who only likes blackmailing
that reported it. He didn’t even stop at that, he also sent it to all
his Blackberry contacts.
Then when Zenat saw it, she was just
crying. My daughter called me that same morning she saw it, and started
crying. She said, ‘Daddy, What’s all this? I saw something now that you
have not shown me for the past 12 years. Is this the way this country is
going to pay you back, instead of appreciating what you’re doing?’ I
now told her, it’s not like that, but what she saw was the handiwork of
some people who think they have the power to blog, and they can post
anything they like. Let them go ahead and be posting their rubbish.
The
shocker was that a lot of people saw the girl acting in my movie
recently. Did she fall from the sky to join the cast of the movie? The
same guy who wrote that I have not seen my daughter in the last 12 years
used the picture of myself , Zenat and Khalid in that same blog not
long ago. That means somebody must be sick. Please, help me ask them,
the public should also ask them what they want. We need to rest for
God’s sake. The whole country is in disarray. They don’t write about
that or suggest anyway forward, I keep wondering if there is no law in
Nigeria again. A lot of these things are happening and we fold ours
arms. Those doing this are blackmailers. They are only looking for a way
of making money. And the same set of people are complaining about the
president, that means if they are allowed to rule, definitely they will
deceive us just like they’re doing now with their blogs.
Are you sure your daughter is happy with you and you see her often?
Yes,
there is no problem between me and my daughter. We are happy. People
should just think deeply before they write anything. They shouldn’t
write to ruin other people’s tomorrow because of money.
How old is Zenat now?
My
beautiful, good looking angel is 15. Like father like daughter, she is
much okay. Let the president, ministers or governors be aware, if any of
their sons is willing to take her for a wife, they are free (laughs).
What of her mother who they said had cursed you?
She
is fine also, we talk regularly. We are happy people. She is very happy
where she is, I am also happy where I am. Everybody is just looking for
a way forward. My daughter, Zenat wants to be a movie producer and
director. So, when you see a happy home like this, is writing something
like that the good way of making them happier or spoiling their joy? So,
those involved in blackmailing should check themselves.
What of the curse by your first wife, how true is it and when exactly did that happen?
I
don’t know anything like that o. What I think is that some years back,
there was this kind of rubbish that was written by a magazine but was
cleared. So, I don’t know where they got that.
Are you saying nothing like that happened between you and your first wife?
Nothing
like that. You can also see from my Facebook. Okay, my daughter
featured in my two films, Alanu Aye mi and Eti Keta. So, if there is any
problem, would she have participated in any movies? With due respect,
there are some fantastic and hardworking bloggers, I give it to them.
But we have some whose main job is to blackmail.
