Precious Chikwendu, the estranged wife of former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode, on Tuesday celebrated her first son Lotanna’s birthday with a lengthy note of his experiences during some dark moments of her marriage.
“Never underestimate the bond between your mother and you the bond that was formed right from when you were in my womb and you witnessed all the punches, you took them with me as you kicked so hard and would only calm down when I whispered and pleaded with you, affirming that you would one day wipe my tears,” she wrote in an Instagram post.
Fani-Kayode’s marriage to the former beauty queen was blighted on allegations of domestic violence, high-handedness among others.
Chikwendu posted photos of good times with her son and also shared a photo of her bloody nose.
“You witnessed so many in my womb and when you arrived this world, you were barely four months old when you witnessed your mother being beaten like a puppy,” Chikwendu continued.
“You were in my arms that night at the Wheatbaker Hotel after he was released from Ikoyi prison, it was all laughter at first then prayers of Thanksgiving and next punches.”
The ex-model further claimed, without mentioning names, that Fani-Kayode went after her and Lotanna with bodyguards and the police in the middle of the night.
She said Lotanna, whom Fani-Kayode prefers to call Aragorn, developed trauma because of the experiences.
“The countless situations you witnessed at Aso Drive also led to you having some trauma,” she said.
“You formed the habit of being so attached to me, you followed me everywhere. To the bathroom, kitchen, whenever I made to move you ran after me in fear. You’re so scared of even sleeping as you felt you sleeping would translate to me disappearing when you wake up.”
