Prominent Nollywood actor, Doyin Hassan, has clarified an initial statement that was construed to mean that he and his latest wife, Oladunni, waited for 24 years before they had a baby.

The renowned actor said this in a post on his Instagram page following the wrong meaning read into the initial statement.

Hassan, who features prominently in productions by Mount Zion Films, stated in the statement titled: “I waited for 24 years and not my wife Oladunni,” on Wednesday: “My testimony of about 24 years of waiting has been misunderstood in certain quarters.

“The testimony was about me and not the women 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 for 1 year 7 months before I remarried 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.”
