Opeyemi Falegan, the estranged lover of Nkechi Blessing, has claimed that the actress dated him for sex and financial benefits.
The estranged couple’s relationship woes took centre stage on Thursday, April 7, as both parties rolled up their sleeves to fight in the mud.
The actress had taken to her Instagram page to reveal the split while hurling expletives at Falegan, while the latter also returned the favour.
On Friday, Falegan had initially apologised for his outburst and announced that he would be taking a break from social media.
He however, resumed the attack on Blessing in a subsequent interview he granted.
In the now-viral clip, Falegan said the film star got attracted to him because he is a philanthropist.
He also claimed the actress “nearly drained” him financially to fulfil her “materialistic desires”.
“I want some things to be clarified and it’s high time I get it clarified. She came into my life for two things, money and sex,” he said.
“You know I have a foundation that takes care of widows, less privileged and others. That was part of the reason she came into my life because she knew I was a philanthropist. She knew I helped a lot of people.
“This woman nearly drained me. She will say ‘I want this I want that. You know in our industry you have to be on point. I’m dating an honourable and they have to know, see that in me and I must be different’.
“But I would say ‘listen, remember I’ve got programmes even before I met you. If I keep doing everything for you, how do I maintain my programme?’ Then, she would reply ‘you have to maintain the home before the street’.
“She was also pressurizing me for kids. I wasn’t ready for that as I am already a father of three. Besides, I was only going to accept if I met her people and she changes her garage ways.”
