Sunday Asefon, Tinubu's senior aide, is accused of harassment by her wife, and her safety is threatened by loyalists.
She claims that after her husband suggested moving the family to Canada and recommended a travel agency to help with immigration procedures, the marital conflict started.
Sunday Asefon Adedayo's wife, who serves as President Bola Tinubu's Senior Special Assistant on Student Engagements, has made startling claims that her husband has harassed her, abandoned his family for three years, and threatened her safety through student union loyalists.
Mrs. Asefon expressed her worry for her life in an interview with SaharaReporters on Tuesday. She said that her husband may hurt her and that nothing would happen because of his political influence and the involvement of his "dangerous" pals.
"We dated for seven years prior to our eleven-year marriage. I've known him for eighteen years in all. I am officially married to him, and we have two kids together," she stated.
She claims that after her husband suggested moving the family to Canada and recommended a travel agency to help with immigration procedures, the marital conflict started.
In the process, he expressed his desire to move me and our kids to Canada. I was introduced to a travel agent by him. On my first try, I received a score of 6.5 on the IELTS exam.
Mrs. Asefon claimed that people close to her husband, especially leaders of the student union, were harassing her in a concerted manner.
The current NASS South-West Zonal Coordinator, Owolewa Taiwo, and a man known only as Sikiru, who was allegedly her husband's chief of staff, were named by her as important players in the threats she received.
"She called me once more and kept swearing at me. I didn't respond to her. I reported the issue to the State CID. They tracked her when I gave them the number.
"She said she had never met me before and didn't even know my name when she was invited to the State CID. She admitted that she received ₦20,000 from Chief of Staff Sikiru to intimidate me and disparage my kids.

Energy crisis: Rising costs for cooking gas cause further issues for homes and others
The cost of cooking gas, also known as liquefied petroleum gas, or LPG, has increased to N14,150 for a 12.5 kilogram cylinder, representing a 38 percent YoY increase from the N10, 323.33 it sold in April of the previous year.
This is happening at the same time that the domestic market price of aviation fuel increased by 33%, from approximately N1,000 to between N1,300 and N1,500 per litre.
Nevertheless, investigations conducted by Energy Vanguard also revealed that, during that time, the cost of 5 kg of gas rose by 37%, from N4, 642.27 to N5, 700.
Cooking gas prices will keep rising as long as the foreign exchange crisis affects the domestic market, according to Mr. Oladapo Olatunbosun, President of the Nigerian Association of Liquefied Petroleum Gas Marketers, or NALPGM, in an interview with Original Kel TV.
"The price of LPG is still priced and determined by the flow of foreign exchange, so it is expected that it will follow suit when the foreign exchange increases."
"Despite the declaration of the decade of gas and the government's push to make gas a transition fuel, low production and rising prices have continued to push Nigerians away from the use of cooking gas," stated Ekperikpe Ekpo, Minister of Petroleum (Gas).
"We are communicating with the important parties to make sure that cooking gas is not exported. Domesticating all cooking gas produced in the nation will be necessary, and once this is done, the volume will rise and the price will inevitably plummet.

Aderounmu was born into a family of five in her birthplace of Abeokuta, where her acting career got its start. She entered the acting profession after graduating from college and quickly became well-known.

OFFICE ABUSE: Emefiele Enters Not Guilty Plea in Lagos Court
Godwin Emefiele, the troubled former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has entered a not guilty plea to charges of misusing his position and allocating billions of dollars from the United States.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) charged Emefiele on Monday before the Ikeja State High Court in Lagos.
Before Justice Rahman Oshodi, Emefiele and his co-defendant, Henry Isioma Omole, were charged on 26 charges.
Marked ID/23787c/2024 and dated April 3, 2024, Mr. Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN) filed the charge on behalf of the EFCC.
Emefiele was accused by the commission of carrying out an arbitrary act in Lagos between 2020 and 2021, which was detrimental to Nigerian rights, by abusing his authority as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. Specifically, the act involved allocating foreign exchange in the amount of $291,945,785.59 without any bids.
According to the EFCC, the former governor of the highest bank in Nigeria was directed to carry out an arbitrary act in 2021 in Lagos that was "prejudicial to the rights of Nigerians" and was "directed to be done in abuse of your office, as the Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria."
"Judge Muazu granted Emefiele bail, and he has been appearing at the FCT High Court for his trial. He has never missed a hearing since that bail was granted, and the prosecution is practically finished building its case. Attorney Lebi Lawal stated, "The defendant has always obediently shown up in court to address the accusations made against him.
"The EFCC called him on Thursday of last week to inform him that two charges had been brought against him. He has already re-appeared in court to address the charges against him. He poses no risk to flight.

Peter Obi declares, "I'm not quitting the Labour Party."
In response to rumors in the media that he could leave the Labour Party before the 2027 election due to his purported dissatisfaction with the leadership issue, Peter Obi, the party's presidential candidate in 2023, has responded.
Benson Upah, the spokesman for the Nigeria Labour Congress, had stated that the former governor of Anambra State was free to leave the LP and that the congress would not obstruct his decision.
Upah had declared: "Mr. Obi has the freedom to choose." It's his choice if he decides to leave the party. We are unable to hold him to that standard. Peter Obi, however, is always a benefit if he decides to stay. I base my argument on that.
"No, there isn't," remarked Obi. I enjoy and support peace. We are one people, in my opinion. We should focus on achieving peace, and I think we can handle any issue.
The LP candidate responded to a potential partnership with former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai by saying, "Well, I'm more interested in Nigeria's success today than tomorrow."
Obi called on stakeholders to exercise caution in response to the federal government's hike in the energy tariff for Band A customers through the Nigerian energy Regulatory Commission, or NERC.
"Everyone should consider it and consider how we might help. How do we address it, particularly in the context of the impoverished areas?
"People who live in Band A areas pay more while those who live in rural areas receive subsidies everywhere in the world. That's how it operates, Obi explained.
Comedian AY shares, "My 20-year marriage is slipping away from me."
Actor and comedian Ayo Makun, better known by his stage name AY, has responded to the gossip over his union with wife Mabel.
Rumors of their separation and infidelity have fuelled recent rumors of strife in their partnership.
AY appeared to acknowledge these claims in a lengthy Instagram post on Sunday, when he acknowledged doing things he wasn't proud of.
He claimed that because of his "deep personal family issues," he was at a point where he could no longer amuse the public.
He issued a warning against making assumptions, emphasizing that public displays do not characterize a person's strength or weakness.
Some of us possess just enough logic to distinguish between facts, values, beliefs, and opinions.
"My personality and abilities merely reinforce that I've reached a point in my life when I can't be entertaining the public while dealing with extremely private family matters. It's possible that they are too much for the people involved to handle.
"Not even in the event that my adult daughter gains access to social media. It is important to safeguard her mental health from viewing things on the internet of which she cannot be proud.
Indeed! I have found myself doing certain things that I am not proud of today, without compromising my family. It is one thing to watch my 20-year relationship and marriage fall apart, but it is quite another for the people involved to know how to assign blame in an environment where most women are expected to constantly play the victim and come out on top. It goes without saying that no one is entirely innocent enough to throw stones.
After getting hitched in November 2008, AY and Mabel are grateful to have two kids.
