Nollywood actor, Adeniyi Johnson has come out to respond to one of the recent claims by his estranged wife, Toyin Abraham, that he is the one delaying their formal divorce.
Adeniyi Johnson who refuted the role of the media in interpreting the situation reiterated that Toyin’s party barged into him unannounced showing up with divorce papers at Shoprite, Ikeja. According to him, his party have been after Toyin’s reaching out to them for a proper divorce but they were not forthcoming until now and they just want everything to happen in a haste.
Read the statement Adeniyi Johnson issued through his PR, ShawttyNatt Media;
It is quite appalling to read some unfounded reports online about me in respect of my marital issues with Toyin Abraham.
It is needless to re-emphasize that being together in the institution of marriage is a matter of choice and interest. In a situation where things do not work out anymore and the relationship has broken-down irretrievably, truth is the best virtue.
Out of honour, i choose to put up this reaction/ disclaimer for the benefit of the interested public and the future that is unknown.
In relation to the execution of a divorce paper and all other processes connected thereto, I find it funny as to how low the concerned party would lay cheap claims to score points that I refused to sign papers. At no point in time did I ever refuse the execution of divorce papers. All that only occurred was an abortive mediation meeting held at Ikeja City Mall.
Her former counsel and I agreed to meet for talks, as he wanted to facilitate reconciliation between I and Toyin at Ikeja City Mall; he never mentioned anything like divorce papers.
It was after the meeting that I called him several times to make proper arrangement for the divorce process, only for me to be told that toyin herself asked him (the lawyer) to still hold on.It is imperative to note that, for several months and till date, it is my counsel who has been chasing the other party. Her decision to create drama on the media is nothing but an “appeal to public sympathy”
It is rather funny how some copy and paste bloggers post without verifying and to the social media commenters who read and comment without knowing the truth …. is shoprite the court of law where papers are signed? Divorce paper of all documents
I therefore reiterate that i am willing to sign the divorce papers once a proper forum for its execution is communicated to my lawyer.
Further more I challenged the other party to post the said letter on the internet with the date so all claims can be verified thank goodness your counsel can be contacted.
God bless us all
