Reports have emerged alleging that Peter Nwachukwu, the husband of late Osinachi Nwachukwu had a secret wife outside their marriage.
According to Vanguard, Nwachukwu wedded his other wife in a church but hid the union from Osinachi’s family.
The romance which began before Nwachukwu sought Osinachi’s hand in marriage was believed to have gone awry after the woman bore a child.
These facts was revealed when one of the children found an old picture hidden in his father’s room.
The kid said: One day, my father was away and forgot to lock up his room. So, I entered and a voice within told me to explore the room. Then, I saw the album and out of curiosity, I opened it and saw daddy’s old photographs. From the photos, I could see that my daddy lived a wayward life.
“So, I closed the album and kept it where daddy hid it. I couldn’t tell mummy or anyone because I was very afraid that daddy will kill me, if he found out that I knew about the photos. Mummy once tried to search for things like this (album) in daddy’s room, but could not find anything.”
When the child discovered the picture, Osinachi relatives were an unhappy about the fact that their in-law married to another woman in a church long before coming for Osinachi’s hand in marriage about 10 years ago.
A family source told the publication; “We never knew Nwachukwu was previously married to another woman. If ever we knew about it prior to now, we may not have allowed Osinachi to marry him.
“Osinachi must have been through a lot of pain which she, unfortunately, kept away from us.”
