Benedicta Elechi, the wife of controversial media personality Daddy Freeze, has spoken out to clarify her side of the story amidst allegations of an extramarital affair with him while she was still married to her ex-husband, Paul Odekina.

Following a Court of Appeal's decision to uphold a N5M fine against Daddy Freeze for depriving Odekina of companionship and causing injury through adultery, Benedicta has addressed the speculation surrounding the situation.

In a statement, Benedicta revealed that she filed for divorce from Odekina due to his sexuality and not because of her relationship with Daddy Freeze. She emphasized that she began her relationship with Daddy Freeze during her 10-year divorce proceedings, not while she was still married. Benedicta's clarification aims to set the record straight and dispel rumors surrounding her personal life.

Benedicta Elechi said:

“You can put the adulteress tag on my forehead if divorcing my ex 12-years ago and starting a relationship before the end of my 10-year divorce lawsuit makes me an adulteress, I am going to wear that tag with pride on my forehead.

“For every woman going through a divorce that believes that because our judiciary system takes 10-years and more to issue a divorce certificate, they don’t have the right to find love and move on with their lives, I am doing it for this women.

“I filed for the divorce 12-years ago and if you are trying to change the narrative and make it look like I was caught in adultery and he divorced me, that’s not the case. I filed for divorce because we have different sexual orientation,” she said partly.
