- Taking to her Instagram story, Sonia admonished Jude Ighalo to take back her bride price, reveals her father solely sponsored their traditional marriage.
- She claimed three years back, she threw a farewell party for them with goods and entertainment, but his family didn’t turn up
Sonia Ighalo, ex-wife of professional footballer Odion Ighalo, has publicly requested that he retrieve his bride price, reigniting their ongoing online exchange.
The latest development follows previous comments from Sonia regarding Odion’s rumored remarriage, which prompted him to ask her to desist from involving him.
The footballer had posted a lovely photo of himself and accompanied it with a caption that read:
“I would be obsessed too.”
He also shared a video with a caption that read:
“Rest naaa for Christ sake, even Devil dey rest sometimes. Lies upon lies upon lies everyday hmmm but I dey too busy dey look for my daily bread to stress about irrelevant things. I pray you find peace.”
In a recent post, Sonia revealed that she had invited Jude Odion Ighalo to collect his bride price, citing a previously arranged ceremony that didn’t materialize due to his family’s absence.
According to Sonia, the failed ceremony resulted in unnecessary expenses, as her father had solely sponsored their traditional wedding.
She expressed frustration over the disrespect shown to her father and his elders by Odion’s family, referencing a past conversation in Dubai.
In her words …
“Make plans to collect your bride price. Remember when I planned this three or four years ago, but your family did not turn up? After planning a lovely farewell party with lots of food and entertainment, you all wasted my money. Knowing that my father was the sole sponsor of our traditional marriage, your mother’s children disrespected him and his
elders by keeping them waiting. Ymir older brother then claimed (as quoted by you in Dubai) that he was afraid of my father and couldn’t visit his home.
Please send your village representativesor nry esteemed Sir Clement Ighalo. who is first in charge, to collect the bride price. Domo Sir.”
