Femi Fani-Kayode, a former minister of aviation, says he once caught Precious Chikwendu, his enstranged wife, with a married man in bed.
He brought the revelation to light on Saturday while dismissing a viral video claiming that he physically abused Chikwendu before their marriage eventually hit the rock.
In the video, released by Sahara Reporters earlier in the day, the two could be seen engaging in a heated exchange, over issues about the family.
But reacting in a series of tweets, the politician quashed the claim, saying that the short clip was nothing but a “mere propaganda.”
The former minister maintained that he had never subjected his enstranged wife to any physical abuse.
He added that he was only trying to prevent her from filming him during the face-off which happened days after he caught her engaging in the alleged unholy act.
“@SaharaReporters posted a video which supposedly depicts me abusing my estranged wife. This is nothing but a propaganda video,” he wrote.

…My words in the video are self explanatory. I urge those thet watched it to listen to those words carefully. I told her that everyone wanted peace except for her and all she did was indulge in scandal after scandal. I have NEVER physically abused my estranged wife.

“There was no physical abuse. I simply took the phone from her to stop her from recording me after catching her in bed with a married man days earlier.
“I repeat there was no physical abuse whatsoever and she had been insulting and subjecting everybody, including family members, staff and children, to physical and verbal abuse the whole day. As usual, it was a nightmare!”
Fani-Kayode also enjoined the public to carefully go through the said the video, adding that his actions in the clip did not in anyway suggest he was trying to abuse her physically.
“My words in the video are self explanatory. I urge those that watched it to listen to those words carefully. I told her that everyone wanted peace except for her and all she did was indulge in scandal after scandal. I have never physically abused my estranged wife,” he added. (The Cable)
