The Nigerian business tycoon Obi Cubana has spoken out about his wife’s battle with a disease that nearly took her life.
In a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Cubana disclosed that his wife became ill following childbirth.
This, according to Cubana, sparked claims that he had exploited her for “rituals.”
He added that one of the doctors treating his wife, a professor, told him she would live, but that she might not be able to walk or bear further children.
Cubana claimed that although his wife held strong, the news broke him.
He claimed she gave him assurances that she would heal and take care of their child.
“So, my wife, after she gave birth on Valentine’s Day, developed a strange illness,” Cubana recounted.
“Someone called me and said, ‘See what they are hearing—that I went to use my wife for juju,’ and it was my friend.
“So, the person taking care of the brain is not the same person taking care of the… so they were just different people.
“A professor said, ‘Obi, your wife will not die, but I’m sorry, she will not be able to walk again and give birth again.’ Tears! My wife held me; she said, ‘Don’t worry, don’t mind them, let’s go.’
“That night, I cried throughout the night, and she said, ‘Obi, I will walk on my feet again, and I will train this baby.”
