le after he dumped her and secretly married another woman.
The embittered Christiana discovered and insisted that Gerald
cannot dumped her at that stage for another woman after she had assisted him
with her money to set up his business. She asked Gerald to send the wife away
and come back or refund all the money he had collected from her to the tune of
N600,000 in 2006 which he used to set up his business.
However, Gerald insisted that he had offered her enough
services and wanted to start his own family and will not marry her as she
requested.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that Christiana got married many years
ago but her husband left her and their three children in Nigeria for about 30
years. When her husband left, she was lonely for those years and became fat
until she met Gerald at the airport and they later became lovers.
According to Gerald, since he entered into the relationship
he was not allowed to talk to any other woman or marry as his family had
wished. He narrated that he begged her to let him marry since his younger ones
had all gotten married but she refused. She told him that if he wanted to marry
that she was the one he will marry.
Gerald further explained that he was trapped in the
relationship because he could not present her to his family members as the
woman he wanted to marry because she was far older than him.
On her part, Christiana admitted that Gerald was her lover
for so many years and her children knew about their relationship. She said all
that she wanted from him was to refund the money he had collected from her
since he was no longer interested in the relationship but he refused.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that the embattled Christiana went to
the police and reported the case as fraud, Gerald was arrested and taken to
Isolo Magistrates court for the alleged offence.
He pleaded guilty and was granted bail in the sum of N100,000
with two sureties in like sum.
However, he was remanded in prison custody pending when he
perfected his bail condition.
The presiding Magistrate, Mrs A.K Shonubi adjourned the
matter till 21 November, 2017 for trial.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that Christiana was so angry against
Gerald to have gotten married without her knowledge, despite the fact that he
had nothing when she met and assisted him and he had the mind to turn against
her.
