Omolara Olaiya Jimoh, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor, Olaniyi Afonja, popularly known as Sanyeri, has shocked the internet after revealing that she and the actor have been separated and co-parenting for nine years.

She disclosed this via a post on her Instagram page, where she shared a picture of herself and Sanyeri.

Omolara, who spoke about her marriage to the actor in a lengthy post, wrote: “To the general public, this is to clarify some misconceptions concerning my marriage and private life, people need to be mindful of being judgemental.

“Two adults especially the ones with kids 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 endeavour to mind their business.

“I mean having being (sic) single for exactly nine 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 same country, I still do well to perform my rightly duties and what’s expected of a single mother and a woman with kids, also he does same duties and fatherly right for our children.

“If in all of these, you 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.”
