Darasimi, the estranged wife of comedian Ganiyu Morufu, popularly known as Ijoba Lande, has responded to the infidelity allegations against her.
Dara, who clarified that during a “Truth or Dare” game organized by her friend, Marygold, she merely sat on popular Yoruba Nollywood actor Babatunde Tayo’s lap.
According to a report from Punch newspaper, She made this clarification in an interview with socialite, Esabod and other TikTokers on Sunday.
Her husband had, in a viral interview, claimed that she left him after he discovered her alleged infidelity, stating that at least 21 men in the entertainment industry were involved with her.
Among those he accused was Baba Tee, whom he mentioned in both an Instagram post and a viral interview.
However, Dara refuted the allegations, insisting that infidelity was not the cause of their marriage’s breakdown.
Disclosing how the incident occurred, she explained: “The first time I met Baba Tee was in July last year when Marygold told me we should go to his house because she wanted to invite him to the launching of her movie. When we got there, Baba Tee didn’t know I was Lande’s wife, we greeted and Marygold said she wanted to drink alcohol”.
“There was no alcohol in the house, so Marygold and Baba Tee’s driver went to buy it while I sat down in the living room. Baba Tee and I didn’t talk till they returned. When Marygold entered the house, she said we should start a ‘Truth or Dare’ game. I didn’t want to, but she encouraged me, so I told Baba Tee that I was Lande’s wife, and we started the game.”
“As the game was going on, Marygold stripped herself naked and gave Baba Tee a BJ. By then, I had already drunk 10 shots of alcohol while Marygold and Baba Tee were smoking ‘Igbo’ (marijuana). Marygold then dared Baba Tee to give me a doggy style, so Baba Tee went to get a condom”.
“When he returned, I told him I would not allow doggy, but I would sit on him. We then told Marygold to turn to the wall so she wouldn’t watch us. I only sat on his lap; we didn’t do anything.”
She reiterated that Lande knew she didn’t sleep around while challenging the comedian to present evidence that she cheated on him when they were married
“I won’t disclose the reason for our breakup at this time due to personal reasons, but it had nothing to do with infidelity,” Darasimi said further.
Earlier, Baba Tee Baba Tee admitted sleeping with Lande’s wife while claiming that it was a short sexual relationship that was never meant to happen but did because he was drunk while playing the ‘Truth or Dare’ game with Dara and Marygold.
The 45-year-old actor also, in a short message on his official Facebook page on Monday, apologised to Lande.
He wrote, “I am deeply sorry from the bottom of my heart, brother, Lande. Deep how Dara became Lande’s wife without my knowledge…Hmmm. I fear women.”
