Abimbola Fashola, wife of former Lagos State governor, Babatunde Fashola, has disclosed that her husband does not discuss political matters with her.
Abimbola who spoke in an interview on News Central television on Thursday, she she has her own source through she gets political updates about her husband.
The former first lady of Lagos kept mum when asked about her husband’s “strained” relationship with his predecessor, Bola Tinubu, during Fashola’s second term as governor of Lagos.
“My husband doesn’t discuss political things with me. I don’t get to hear from my husband. I get to hear from a source. I have a source,” she said.
“It is like a spiritual guide for you to know what you are praying about. That is the way I see it. I don’t have two prayers.”
On accusations that the former Lagos governor had children outside of wedlock, Abimbola said it was a defamation of character and a plot to separate her from her husband.
“Some of my elderly women that I know told me not to worry about everything that was being said,” she said.
“They said that they had defended me, and I should accept the children. They said they know me very well and that I would ask anyone who has a child for my husband to bring them in.
“It was defamation of character. I did not talk about it at all with him. My father had several wives; I have younger ones.
“They thought I was going to leave my husband. And I know he did not do it. Most people would think we don’t talk. I’m not saying he is a perfect man, but he carries me along.”
