Nollywood actress, Caroline Danjuma, also known as Carolyna Hutchings, has threatened to take legal action against Nigerian singer, Oritsefemi, over claims that she was legally married to Davido’s late friend and associate, Tagbo Umeike.
According to reports, Oritsefemi stated that he never intended to wed his estranged wife Nabila Fash but felt compelled to do so because Caroline persuaded her to do so after her marriage to Tagbo in a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo.
He said,
“I told my ex-wife that I only need a baby boy. That was our agreement. I never intended to marry her. It was Caroline Danjuma. Caroline went and did a court wedding with the late Tagbo. After the wedding, she told Nabila that she had married Tagbo and urged her to make sure I marry her.”
Caroline, however, refuted Oritsefemi’s allegations in a statement issued through her publicist, Bodex Hungbo, saying that she had only ever been married to her ex-husband, Musa Danjuma.
She also asked Oritsefemi to submit all supporting documentation, such as photos of the alleged marriage to Tagbo.
The statement reads,
“DISCLAIMER!!! This is to address the attempt to defame our client, Dr Carolyna Danjuma Hutchings @carolynahutchings (Actress producer and property developer) via a concerted effort by an unscrupulous individual known as Mr Orisefemi.
“Several unsavory stories have emerged recently by this individual spreading false stories to cast aspersions on the personality of Dr Carolyna Danjuma Hutchings and we are not leaving this unturned
“For clarification, the ONLY man Dr Carolyna Danjuma Hutchings has ever been married to and has children for is her ex husband, Chief Barrister Musa Danjuma.
