My ex-husband dumped me, married a new wife when he became famous – Mama No Network
Nollywood movie star, Atinuke Kazeem, popularly known as Mama No Network has accused her ex-husband, Baba Lanko, of dumping her for another woman after he became successful and famous.
In a recent interview, the actress shared the challenges she faced while married to her ex-husband, both personally and professionally.
She claimed that Baba Lanko in a bid to get to her, instructed film producers not to cast her in any movies he was involved in.
In addition, the comical character revealed her painful battle with infertility, recalling a particularly harrowing moment when she was given kerosene to drink in a desperate attempt to conceive.
“My ex-husband, Lanko, and I worked hard to produce many films. But when money and fame came, he told me he wanted to marry a new wife.
“After we parted ways, he told producers not to feature me in the same projects as him. Today, however, he now uses his own money to call me for movie roles, and for that, I give glory to God.
“I wasn’t the one who left the marriage; he simply stopped coming home. During our time together, I faced immense difficulties while trying to have a child. I went through hell.
“At one point, I was given kerosene to drink. All those desperate measures affected me, leading to my bloated stomach. When I finally gave up hope, God answered my prayers, and the pregnancy came naturally.”
