Ighalo: Super Eagles billionaire breaks silence days after ex-wife’s bride price drama

Days after being called out by his ex-wife Sonia Adesuwa, Odion Ighalo has finally broken his silence.

The former Super Eagles striker has been the subject of a public drama with his ex-wife, Sonia Adesuwa.

Pulse Sports earlier reported that hours after her emotional apology, which hinted at regret for previous accusations, the Al-Wehda striker took to his official X account to write a powerful message.

Sharing photos of himself, he captioned:

“Nobody works harder than a man who knows no one has got his back. Only his mum’s prayers, his grand and God.”

Sonia Adesuwa’s recent Instagram activities reignited speculation about their relationship.

Just hours after her heartfelt apology, Sonia took a sharp turn, demanding that Ighalo, one of Nigeria’s richest footballers reclaim the bride price he paid at their wedding.

In her post, she reminisced about past grievances, alleging disrespect from Ighalo's family during their traditional marriage.

“Make plans to collect your bride price. Remember when I planned this three or four years ago, but your family did not turn up?” she wrote, stirring the pot of public opinion once more as she has so often done.

The contrast between her apologies and demands raised eyebrows, leaving fans questioning the ultimate motives behind her statements.
