RMD drags wife back to public space on her 45th birthday

Nollywood veteran, Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD), waxed lyrical again on Friday as his wife, Jumobi, turned 45.

The actor and politician showered praises on his partner of 16 years in an Instagram post, thanking her for healing him and being his shield.

Although the former AIT presenter does not want to be dragged back into the public, her husband says he can’t help himself because “I must let the world know that you’re the strongest reason I can hold my head up high.”

Using Yoruba words of endearment like Adunmaradan and Oluwaseunfunmi, the I Will Die for You star concludes his message with the declaration “I love you to the moon and back”.

Nah, this won’t be a long one. Been saying too much of late and dragging you back into the public space you’ve warned me to keep you away from, you see, I’m trying but I can’t help myself. I must let the world know that you’re the strongest reason I can hold my head up high. You have covered my mistakes and shielded my shortcomings from the public. You know that if I could turn back the hands of time, I would never hurt or make you cry. Thank you ABK for loving me and helping us heal through all my failings, I am humbled by it all. Thank you for the privilege to call you my wife, I can’t be more proud. HAPPY BIRTHDAY my own personal Adunmaradan. God bless, keep and prosper you for me. Oluwaseunfunmi. I love you to the moon and back.
