Funsho Adeoti, the first wife of Nollywood filmmaker Kazim Adeoti, has spoken out following his recent comments about her 50th birthday party.
Amid the revelation, Funsho took to her social media page to share more photos from her birthday celebration.
Funsho, who is estranged from Kazim Adeoti, now married to actress Mercy Aigbe, used the moment to celebrate her milestone while subtly addressing her husband’s statements.
According to a report by Famous9ja last week, Kazim was dragged by many since he was conspicuously absent from Funsho’s 50th birthday celebration.
Following the drama online, Kazim issued a public statement, expressing his feelings about being exempted from his wife’s birthday party. He claimed to have lent his financial and moral support to ensure the success of the birthday, as he noted how they share a cordial relationship. Contrary to the belief of many, Kazim Adeoti stated that he had been wishing her offline for her birthday, and she had always responded positively.
Taking to her Instagram page minutes ago, Funsho, who is unbothered by his explanation, penned an appreciation post to the public for their support.
Dear friends, family, and loved ones,
I am deeply moved by all the birthday wishes, prayers, and love that you have shown me. Your kind words have filled my heart with so much gratitude, and I honestly can’t express how much it means to me. Whether near or far, each message has reminded me how blessed I am to have such amazing people in my life. Your thoughtfulness has made this day even more special than I could have ever imagined.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to send me birthday greetings, prayers, and well wishes. Your love is felt more than words can describe, and I truly appreciate every single one of you. Each message, whether big or small, has brightened my day and added so much joy to this celebration.
As I reflect on the love and support I have received, I pray that the same kindness, joy, and blessings you’ve shared with me be returned to you a hundredfold. May your lives be filled with peace, happiness, and an abundance of love. I ask that God bless each one of you with good health, success, and joy in all that you do, and may His light continue to guide your steps.
Thank you once again for making this birthday so meaningful. I cherish you all deeply and look forward to the many more memories we will create together.
With love and gratitude.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
