At a point when singer, Eedris Abdulkareem, thought nothing of
sowing his wild oats, he got some wise words from none other
than his one-time label boss, Kenny Ogungbe.
Although a lot has been heard about the controversial singer, not
much is known about his family life. In a chat with Saturday
Beats, the singer opened up on how Kenny Ogungbe, fondly
called Baba Keke, helped to shape his life.
He said, “My wedding day was a very lavish one and Baba Keke
was my best man. I chose Baba Keke to be my best man because
he has always been like the father I never had. I lost my father
when I was only three years old. When I was still at Kennis Music,
I went to collect my royalties when I met Baba Keke and he called
me aside to give me a piece of advice.
“He told me that he really loved me and that was why he was
advising me. He told me that I should make sure I got married as
soon as possible. He advised me to ensure that I married only one
woman and I should not let any woman other than my wife bear
children for me.
I agreed with him. He further told me to make sure I did not
waste my sperm on different women. He told me to settle down
and be a responsible man. That advice has helped shaped my life
since then. A lot of girls I dated at the time were not happy with
my choice of wife but I was happy about it. In fact, I intentionally
avoided throwing a bachelor party because I knew something
could happen that night that would ruin my marriage. After we
got married, we went on a honeymoon and my wife got
pregnant a month later.”
The ‘Nigeria jaga jaga ’ singer told Saturday Beats that the instant
he laid eyes on his wife, he knew she was going to be his wife.
Just like a scene from a Nollywood movie, the singer said that the
first time he saw her, she was a damsel in distress.
“I was on my way to the video shoot of my song, ‘Life in Yankee’
when I saw a lady trying to fix the tyre on her car. I take
everything that has to do with marriage very spiritual because
God says that if you want a wife we should ask him.
So, I had prayed for a very long time for God to give me a wife
that would compliment me. Immediately I saw her, I parked and
helped her fix the tyre. Immediately I saw her, I could feel that
she was my wife.
He said, “When I parked to help her, my mind told me she was
going to be my wife. The first thing I looked out for was
whether there was a ring on her finger. I needed to be sure that
she was not married. I also noticed that there was a child in her
car.
“So, I thought she was either married or a single parent. While I
was still assisting her with the tyre, her brother showed up. So, I
took him aside to ask if she was married and he said she was
not. I enquired about the child and her brother confirmed to me
that it was his. I later got her house address from him.”
Not leaving things to chance, the singer said that he went to the
house the next day and when he knocked on the door, he was
confronted by her father.
Abdulkareem said, “Luckily, he recognised me. He said he had seen
me before on television. The father asked what I was doing in his
house and I explained to him that I came to see his daughter,
Yetunde, and he welcomed me.
“I admitted to him that she did not invite me to the house but I
came because I did not want my wife to run away. Eventually, she
came to meet me but was furious because she did not invite me
to her house.
“I apologised for the intrusion then explained to her that I wanted
to marry her and did not care how long it would take because
God told me that she was my wife.
“I was not afraid to open up to her in her father’s house because
I prayed and fasted for four years before I met her. She was
really furious but I tried my best to apologise. When her father
heard all I had said. he asked if I was truly serious and my reply
was affirmative.
“I later got her number but it took me another six months to
convince her that I was not fooling her and that was how it
started. She felt that as a very popular musician I had women
flocking to me. We are still together 16 years after.”
