Doyin Hassan’s statement on Instagram read,
“I waited for 24 years and not my wife Oladunni. My testimony about 24 years of waiting has been misunderstood in certain quarters. The testimony was about me and not the woman I married. I first got married on the 5th of June 1999 and lost 2 precious women to the cold hands of death over time.
I married Adeola Doyin-Hassan in June 1999 and lost her 8.5 years after (February 20, 2008, on her birthday). I waited for 2 years before I remarried Bolanle Doyin-Hassan in April 2010. Bolanle passed in December 2020, and I waited 1 year 7 months before I remarried in October 2022.
My new wife was not barren for 24 years. I was the one who shared a testimony of my tears and toils for 24 years. Meeting Oladunni was God’s redirection of my divine journey. I hope this is clear enough…God’s blessings.”
