Governor Adams Oshiomhole's mother,
Hajia Aishetu Oshiomhole was at her
son's wedding to Iara Fortes and was
glad he heeded her advise.
She said she
advised her son not to marry a Nigerian
woman when she saw his interest in
getting remarried.
She said she gave him
that advise in order to avoid crisis in his family.
"I supported him to marry a
foreigner so that the relationship between my son and his children will remain cordial. Our Nigerian women will go and destroy the family just because they want property. That was the main
reason I supported him to marry a foreigner when he told me about it. So I am happy about it.
Besides, the new wife is a very good woman" she said.
She behaves like Comrades late wife. Very accommodating,
understanding and hard working.
And you know my son travels a lot as a governor.
He needs a woman who
understands his work and that is the kind of wife he married. She is just like Clara. Normally, people spend two years or less before they marry again but Comrade
decided to wait for five years due to the love he had for his late wife. And Clara was a good person, very lovely and nice to all of us. So we supported Comrade for taking time to re-marry because we loved Clara.
Comrade and the former wife
lived very happily, there was no quarrel, nothing at all and that was why he mourned for five years. I am happy that he brought a wife that will bring him and the children together".
Also speaking, the traditional ruler of Iyamho community, HRH Bashir Itameso, who equally is a cousin to the
Comrade Governor, said
"I was happy seeing him remarry.
I am happy because I never
wanted him to marry a Nigerian because our people are wicked. I prefer it that he married a foreigner. If he had married a Nigerian, in-laws will come and start troubling him.
They will start tearing themselves apart for materials things and
that will create serious problem between Comrade and his children. We all supported him to marry a foreigner".
