The wife of veteran Nollywood actor, Olaniyi Afonja popularly known as Sanyeri has revealed that she and the actor ended their marriage nine years ago.
Sanyeri’s wife, Omolara Olaiya revealed this earlier today on her Instagram page, noting that she maintained a cordial relationship with the actor for the sake of the children and has chosen happiness over drama.
She wrote: “This is to clarify some misconceptions concerning my marriage and private life.
“People need to be mindful of being judgemental about adults especially the ones with kids who can decide to maintain a cordial relationship for the sake of their children.
“It doesn’t mean they don’t know what they are doing, not everyone wants the media in their private lives as such people should mind their business.
“I have been single for exactly 9 years and co-parenting with my ex-husband hasn’t been all bed of roses for us.
“Even if we are no longer living in the same country I still do well to perform my right duties and what is expected of a single mother and a woman with kids.
“Also, he does the same duties and fatherly rights for our children. If in all of this you still choose to be insensitive please don’t bring it here. Henceforth, I won’t tolerate anyone interfering in my private life.
“I choose happiness over drama and so be it. Thanks, I remain Omolara Olaiya Jimoh”, she added.
In the meantime, Sanyeri and Omola got married in 2007. They’re blessed with two children.
