even though most of the women are the most beautiful that
can be found anywhere in the country.
Most of the women are either single or divorced and plenty
more still searching. Those that have been able to hold on to a
marriage have come to accept their lots of being the
second wife.
In a recent interview, Lola Alao must have spoken the minds
of many of them when she cried out "where are the single
guys?" after being asked why many of her colleagues are
going for other woman's man and even made bold to claim
that married men make better husbands.
Many of them who have toed this line have had their lives
embroiled in hot waters of controversies, and yet survived
while some are not so lucky. Even there are cases of those
who rushed into the arms of the other woman's man only to rush out.
Here are a few of them and their different tales of woes and
triumphs.
Caroline Ekanem-Danjuma
The story of Nollywood s*xy actress, Caroline Ekanem-
Dajunma is not hidden. She is a one-time glamorous screen
diva who later became the second wife of billionaire
Musa Danjuma.
Since then, Mrs. Danjuma who gave up her career in acting
for the marriage has enjoyed all that money can buy and good
things of life.
However, it appears something is disturbing the actress. She
recently confessed on her Facebook page that being the
second best and being in second place is not fun. It appears something is actually missing here.
Liz Dasilva
There hasn't been any concrete evidence that this Togolese-
Yoruba actress has married her baby's father who she bore a
bouncing baby boy
some months ago. But the fact that the actress went ahead to
convert from Christianity to Islam, changing her name from
Elizabeth to Aishat, in a bid to please her supposed husband,
Alhaji Olaoye, is a sign that something more than just mere
man-woman relationship is in the equation.
Alhaji Olaoye is said to have many other wives and Liz or
Aishat is just one of many in his harem. But it appears Liz
has no qualms in marriage as she is reportedly having a ball
even if she has to accept her fate of seeing Alhaji every now and then
Mercy Aigbe
Nollywood actress Mercy Aigbe is surely having the fun of
her life in her polygamous marriage. She was nick-named a
husband snatcher by a fellow actress few months ago when she got married to Bimbo Akinsanya's husband, Lanre Gentry.
Ini Edo
In November 2008 she got married to Philip Ehiagwina, a
businessman. Edo had a second wedding in February 2009 in
America, in Houston, Texas, where her husband is based.
Their relationship had been in the newspapers: not just
because Edo is one of those people that newspapers like to
write things about, true and untrue, but also because Ehiagwina had already been married, to Ruth Okoro, a Nigerian-American model and actress. Okoro made his leaving her for Edo ugly and public, both of them saying terrible things about each other.
Mosun Filani
Popular Yoruba Actress, Mosunmola Filani secretly got married to Simeon Oduoye in Ibadan not too long ago.
The light-skinned Yoruba actress, as we were told by an
industry source, was full of surprise getting married to
Simeon, who is believed to be a woman's guy.
Information gathered revealed that Mosun secured the love of
Simeon at the expense of Yemisi, Simeon's wife at the time.
Mosun, who once had hot romance with Odunlade Adekola
and Muyiwa Ademola, was said to have hijacked Simeon to
herself, thereby making him pay less attention to his wife,
Yemisi, who has two kids for him.
Mosun has gone on to bear the man a baby girl and their
marriage seems to be in ship-shape with no detectable cracks
of any discord.
Bose Arowosegbe
If you have been wondering why Nigerian actresses prefer
marrying other people's husbands, wonder no more, because
Nollywood Yoruba actress, Bose Arowosegbe, has come out
to support the trend of actresses going after married men. Just
like some of her colleagues have done in the past, Bose is a
second wife and she is proud of that. Her reasons are that single men are immature, childish, poor and do not have what it takes to give the actresses the kind of life they deserve.
Here is what she said: "I am married to a married man. I have
not told anyone this before. Why actresses go for married men
is that most single men out there are not mature enough to handle the fact that actresses are normal women.
Mercy Johnson
Most talented and sought after actress in the English sector of
Nollywood, Mercy Ozioma Johnson got married to Prince
Odianosen Okojie,who is married to a Canada-based lady
named Lovely with two kids, a boy and a girl.
The whole drama got messier, when Lovely came out of the
blues claiming that she is the legally married wife of Prince
Odianose, who Mercy was
planning to get married to and that she can't get abandoned
like that because she is still legally married to her husband,
Prince Okojie.
However from all indications Mercy seems to be having a ball
with her husband.
