Nigerian couple clash over ‘side chick’, property
Katherine Daramola says her husband and his mistress are conniving to deprive her of the property, an allegation Mr Daramola denies.


By Ifeoluwa Adediran




A United States-based lawyer has accused her estranged husband, Adetokunbo Daramola, of plans to illegally acquire their jointly-owned property in Lagos.

Katherine Daramola, 57, said her husband and his mistress are conniving to perpetrate the act.


Adetokunbo and Katherine Daramola during happier times.

The property in question is a twin duplex at Magodo, an high-brow estate in Lagos.


Allegations

In 2010, Mr Daramola partly relocated to Nigeria where he began executing contracts for the Lagos Inland Revenue Service (LIRS) and some local government areas in the state, Mrs Daramola told PREMIUM TIMES in an interview.

The couple had earlier acquired plots of land at the Magodo GRA where they built the duplex.

“We got two plots of land at Magodo but we were not able to build on both plots, so we got a developer who paid N10 million on an agreement that he would take two duplexes and the family the other two duplexes,” said Mrs Daramola.

“We built two duplexes and the Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) has my name (on it).”

Mrs Daramola said she contributed 75 per cent of the money spent on building the house and furnished most parts of their home.

She alleged that, unknown to her, her husband, while in Nigeria, began an affair with another married woman. Upon completion and furnishing of their home, her husband and his mistress moved into the house, she added.

Mrs Daramola said after over three decades of legal practice, she had begun planning her retirement.

“I’m home-grown, I am close to retirement,” she said. “I need to come home, which is why we built the house, now they are trying to deny me access to my house.”


‘Abandonment, infidelity’

Mrs Daramola said her estranged husband “intermittently abandoned” her and their four children in the U.S., leaving her to single-handedly cater for the kids.

She also accused him of having an “illicit and adulterous” relationship with a woman whose husband was in the United Kingdom.

“He came to the United States, spent few months, then came back to Nigeria in 2018. I noticed he was having an affair, but I didn’t know how serious it was,” she said.

In August 2018, Mrs Daramola said while she was buying the furniture and other home items in the U.S. and shipping them to Nigeria, her estranged husband, who was clearing the properties in Lagos. was giving his mistress the impression that he was an “American big boy”.

“I handed over everything to him out of trust and that him, being the husband, the man of the home, he should take over. That was the trust and I just continued here buying things and shipping them home,” she said.

“Unknown to me, his mistress was living in my house. She was the first person that used my Jacuzzi, my brand new bed, my kitchen utensils and everything. She felt that comfortable, whatever he was telling her, I don’t know.”

Mrs Daramola said the “illicit and adulterous” relationship broke their marriage of 25 years.

“Due to abandonment and numerous incidents of adultery, and fear of being infected with deadly sexual diseases, I separated from him and asked him to give up my share of the twin duplexes,” she said.


Lawsuits

Mrs Daramola said she visited Nigeria in May 2019 unannounced only to find female items all over their home.

She said her husband denied knowing the owner of the items.

She said by her next visit to Nigeria, the locks to the house had been changed by her husband’s mistress. She accused the woman of planning to take over the house with her mother.

She said she hired a lawyer in Nigeria and began filing legal notices against them.

“Despite several legal notices and lawsuits, both defendants continue to stay in my part of the duplex. Mr Daramola continues to lock me out and I have to break into the house several times.

“On Sunday, January 9th (2021), I arrived with my children and broke the locks and padlocks to gain entry into my house and found Abisoye’s (the mistress) personal and intimate items strewn all over my bedroom and secure areas.

“My children and I moved her things out of my house and piled them up at the gate. When they were notified by third parties that we were in the house, they called the police and the Isheri DPO invited all of us.

“Tokunbo Daramola and Abisoye (were) asked to remove their personal belongings from the home. In the presence of the police officers, they both threatened to kill me. The DPO advised us to return with police escort and they came to pick up their load.

“Abisoye started screaming and insisting them she will not leave my home. Herself and Olatokunbo Daramola conspired and falsely accused me of stealing. They, however, later admitted that none of their personal items were stolen but (still) filed a police report,” Mrs Daramola said.


She said she has received several threats from the mistress and her mother that they would kill her “within six months”.

Mrs Daramola accused her husband and his mistress of evading court service.

“What Mr Daramola is exhibiting is the current trend of Nigerian men in the diaspora who walk away from long term marriages and children and subject wives to mortgages while they come to Nigeria and live with other women,” she said.

“Olatokunbo needs to the needful and give me my property. He wants to continue staying over at the house. I spent my whole life savings, I spent over $53,000 furnishing the house.”


Mr Daramola reacts

When PREMIUM TIMES contacted Mr Daramola on the allegations, he told this newspaper, “not to get involved in their matter”.

The businessman said his estranged wife “had already gone on Facebook to drag his name in the mud”.

“The Bible says seek the truth and hold on to it, she is just making all sort of lies, but I’m not interested in all these publicity. Let her do whatever she likes,” he said.

“I am not interested. She is a serious troublemaker, I can’t tell you much because I am not interested in the publicity. I left the house for her.

“She has been terrorising me for several years, enough is enough. We are going to America so we will start a divorce. We have been to court several times and she has been losing.

“This is not my first house, I have built houses before I met her, ” he said.

Meanwhile, Mr Daramola’s alleged mistress did not respond to phone calls and text messages.

Why are couples just easily drawn apart these days?What should draw them together seems to be pulling them apart.

I hope the wife gets justice and doesn't get cheated.It's her sweat.
I hope women wise up and make sure properties they build together are jointly in their names.

Being together and building together should be what marriage is about.

Ka Chineke mezie okwu.

I can't still fathom the reason or reasons why some people who aren't ready to leave the single life, just rush into marriage and start misbehaving....
It kind of irritating seeing some married men and women not being committed.
God let your will alone be done in our lives.

It's never easy to judge a matter like this without facts. Why is Premium Times reporting on a personal matter and even calling the parties involved?
Everyday I get to learn that it's a thin line between love and hate.

With the ending of the 25 years of marriage in view, the woman will not leave the union empty- handed and the man can house his side chick in one of the houses he claims he owned before he married his wife.

The way people quote the bible when it suits them is just what I don't understand... The wife brought an overwhelming evidence against him...

So which part of the evidence was lies?
<<Is he having an affair with a lady when he's still married?
<< Did he abandoned the lady in US and come to Nigeria?

<<Did the lady contributed in building the house.. did she work her a$$ off and shipped in properties to help furnish the said house?

<<Did the lady discovered female items in the house?
<<who owns the female items in the house...?

Yet he has the temerity to quote the good book... making a mockery of that wonderful book sad...

Just thinking aloud, So #10million can build that kind of house I'm seeing in that picture in Nigeria or was it some decades ago?

Actually, most people enter marriages wholeheartedly but it's what they face in marriage that pushes them to misbehave; eg. badly behaved spouse, poor sex life, incompatibility, growing apart, in-law issues, complexities of raising children etc..

Nobody holy pass and people are bound to fall if not careful.

I'm sure the man would love to file for divorce but he stands to lose a lot since he's based in the States.

Moving back to Nigeria was probably a strategy for him to acquire property that she cannot touch. That way, if he proceeds with a divorce, whatever he forfeits to his wife in America would not matter.

I don't pity the man at all and the gold digger with him They should go to one of the numerous houses he claims to have.

The first wife didn't forget her sense when names were to be written on the C of O, if not she and her kids would have been left with nothing.

The reason why marriages among modern day Nigerian couples don't last is that we have not learnt to change with civilization. We want to still hold on to some archaic cultural mindsets about marriage while at the same time we also want to enjoy the benefits of modernization.

Simply put, we train our female children and empower them economically without training their minds to accept the fact that it won't be a taboo to make financial contributions in their homes nor marry a good man who is not financially well off.

Also, we fail to train the minds of our sons to accept the fact that things have to change as regards what was traditionally considered as roles of the two gender in marriages. So, our men want working class ladies who will at the same time be subservient to them and also do all the house chores even after exhausting herself at her work place. It won't work that way!

The above reasons contribute largely to why people don't derive satisfaction in their marriages beyond the few weeks of honeymoon when the love is still 'shacking' them.

In summary, let's learn to change our mindsets about what was initially considered gender roles prior to modernization and girl-child empowerment. That way, we'll derive satisfaction from our marriages.

Haaaaaa! Chineke me! It is well.

Dear husband, please divorce your wife properly and move on with your life. It is wrong on all levels to want to take her house with you. Let's not forget that she was trained to know the law sir. Na wa o.

The Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) of the property in Nigeria that is in contention has her name on it, so I don't see how she cannot touch it or will the Lagos State government change her name on the Certificate of Occupancy to his?
