Nigerian influencer Laura Ikeji has become the centre of online gossip as rumours about her marriage to Ogbonna Kanu, brother of football legend Nwankwo Kanu, continue to spread. Recent reports allege that Ogbonna was involved in secret affairs with multiple women, leading to a flood of mixed opinions on Laura's social media pages.
The Allegations
According to reports, Ogbonna Kanu told a 23-year-old woman who had just relocated to Nigeria that he was single. The two allegedly dated for about eight months, during which they got to know each other. Reports further claimed that he persuaded her to invite friends for multiple bedroom activities. The story took a dramatic turn when one of the friends recognised him and revealed that he was married to a public figure. Upon confrontation, Ogbonna reportedly travelled and cut off communication. The woman later claimed that when she reached out to him, she heard that he had died.
Online Reactions
The rumours gained more momentum after alleged explicit photos of Ogbonna surfaced online, intensifying online discussion. Meanwhile, Laura Ikeji ignored the negative buzz to promote her beauty brand on Instagram. The fashion enthusiast appeared seemingly unfazed by the swirling rumours. Her latest post, however, attracted a flood of comments from Nigerians, with many demanding that she address the allegations surrounding her husband.
The rumours left social media sharply divided, with some sympathising with Laura while others insisted she owed the public clarity on the matter. Some comments included:
- wunmiabanson: 'Shiit happens life goes on .Women keep making yourself ,keep building yourself dont stop ?❤️.'
