Man Whose Wife died While Allegedly Chasing Him and His Mistress Speaks

Nigerian lawyer Sonnie Bassey, whose wife died allegedly while car-chasing him and his mistress, has finally spoken after rumours went wild that he had died. Some unconfirmed reports indicated that he was in a comma.

Bassey dismissed the narrative around his wife’s death, terming them as tales with nothing but figments of the imagination of their peddlers.

“I have spoken with my elders, relatives, pastor and lawyers, and I have been advised to remain quiet for now. I want to bury my wife and give her that respect. After that, I intend to have a press conference. Even the two families, my wife’s family and mine, intend to issue a briefing, but they also chose to be quiet at this point. My wife was dead when I took her to the hospital, so there is no way she could have granted anybody an interview,” Bassey quoted by The Nation Online.

It was a mixed reaction among social media users as some blamed the mistress for being the cause of the tragedy while others blamed the man for his woes.

“If this man was faithful to his wife, he could be enjoying life with his family, now we are here with this painful occurrence because of a man who failed to fulfill God’s promise of being faithful to his wife,” a Twitter user wrote.

“Now the side chick is happy seeing the orphaned kids crying uncontrollably not knowing what they are expecting in future due to her actions. Even if she was promised heaven she will not get and she will leave regretting his actions,” another agitated user wrote.

On his part, Bassey said he and his late wife, Claret Opara, enjoyed a lovely relationship adding that he has been a good father.

“Even as I am, one day, I will also die. I am from Akwa Ibom where we respect the dead,” Bassey added.
