Super Eagles striker Kayode Olarenwaju has filed for a divorce from his estranged wife, Ezinne, at a Federal Capital Territory High Court in Abuja.
The football star also prayed the Court for #1 billion damages against controversial UK-based Pastor, Tobi Adegboyega for emotional tr@uma, financial loss and loss of goodwill occasioned by his alleged ad¥lterous affair with Ezinne.
Olarenwaju and Ezinne have been engaged in a marital battle following allegations of infidelity, among other issues.
The cross-petition marked Suit Number PET/304/2024 cited several allegations involving infid£lity, financial misconduct, and a dramatic family fallout.
In his cross-petition, Olanrewaju claimed that since their marriage in 2013, Ezinne has repeatedly committed ad\ltery, including his earlier claim of an ongoing affair with Pastor Adegboyega.
The footballer alleged that his wife’s relationship with Adegboyega has not been discreet, with the pair seen openly attending parties and sharing intimate moments in public.
He also said that Ezinne has had similar relations with other men, which has made it intolerable for him to continue living with her as husband…(swipe
Olanrewaju claimed that Dora diverted significant funds and rental proceeds from properties he purchased, alleging that she is using them to sustain her extravagant lifestyle and her alleged relationship with Pastor Adegboyega.
The footballer further accused Ezinne of ab\sing alcohol and living a life filled with late-night parties, which contributed to the deterioration of their marriage.
Olanrewaju’s Cross-petition also mentioned his earlier allegation that Dora abducted their three children and fled from home on 24th March 2024. He said the Directorate of State Security Service (DSS), helped to track her down and was arrested at a hideout in Abuja. He said Dora jumped bail to evade further investigation and she also attempted to secure new passports for their children to relocate abroad. agia
Olanrewaju said he was shocked when he got a credit alert from his father-in-law sometime in May 2024, indicating a refund of the Bride Price paid during their wedding. He said Dora Ezinne later took to social media to declare herself traditionally free as her bride price was refunded.
Olanrewaju asked the court to dissolve his marriage with Ezinne and grant him custody of their children because his estranged wife could not be a good role model for the children of the marriage.
