Okey Bakassi refutes rumour of separation from wife
According to reports that surfaced online on Monday, Okey Bakassi reportedly said his wife has filed for a divorce 15 years after relocating her and the children to the United States to study nursing while he stayed back in Nigeria to work and send them money.
Refuting the report in a video shared on his Instagram page, the comedian said: “Please, my wife and I are still together, God forbid anything will ever happen to us.
“Someone was busy on social media trying to disrespect me and my family. One idiot, one charlatan went on social media and created an article with my name, my picture with that of my wife on it. Alleging that we have gone our separate ways.
“Since then, friends, family and fans have been calling me and my wife from all over the world with this troubling news. We just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary in Canada.
Okey Bakassi,
