When I first met my husband, he had 87 girlfriends, one of whom was "maame water" - Human rights activist

Adetoun said recently in an interview on the WithChude podcast that some of the women had done all in their power to ruin her marriage.

One of the 87 women, according to her, was "a pure mermaid" who frequently visited her husband.

The rights activist claimed that she had to fight both physically and spiritually to put an end to her husband's extramarital affairs and save her marriage. 

She said, "My husband was sleeping with 87 girlfriends."

“The girls that he was sleeping with. Baba Ashabi will tell me that… Let me even shock you, he will tell me that he is looking for a job for them. I said, ‘You who has no job, where is your recruitment center? Where are you looking for a job for them? You have left Lagos, you are the one looking for a job for them. Baba Ashabi!

I respond, "You have not experienced mine," to those who claim that men are incapable of changing. I approached it cautiously at first. There was one who was a pure mermaid spiritually. Baba Ashabi will even see this one in person. On one of those days when we were meant to travel together, Baba Ashabi begged the woman to come see her mother instead of accompanying me.

Thus, Chude, I engaged in combat one after the other. A few came for their retribution: he had gotten me pregnant and refused to take it back. One individual stated that she had dated him for fifteen years, while another remarked, "I've been with him for twenty-soomething years ."

“Because I realised I am on an assignment in his life. He also struggled with it. If you send my husband a text message on his phone, I will receive the same message. If you chat with my husband, I will receive the same message. I took my time to understand what he had gone through.”
