March 10, (THEWILL)- After over 30 years of marital bliss and just at the twilight of her marriage, former society matriarch turned minister of the gospel, Folorunsho Alakija has suffered a devastating marital crisis.

According to very reliable sources close to THEWILL, the mother of four who is also Nigeria’s wealthiest woman, has allegedly separated from her husband, Modupe.

The businessman allegedly, no longer spends cold nights in the arms of his wife on their matrimonial bed in their highbrow Ikoyi, Lagos home.

The couple were alleged to have been having frequent squabbles which allegedly necessitated the wealthy woman to demand utmost privacy in her home. He was forced to seek accommodation elsewhere. He allegedly lives alone within the same Ikoyi neighbourhood.

Calls and text messages to him seeking clarification went unanswered. Sources reveal that it has not all been smooth sailing for the couple these past few years and they have allegedly been forced to put up a united front because of their status in the society.

This latest development is coming barely five months after THEWILL exclusively reported that the former fashion designer and founder of FAMFA Oil Limited, an Oil and gas exploration business has allegedly been battling some health challenges particularly with her eyes. Family and friends tried as much as they could to put a lid on it just as they tried to with her current marital status. Her health challenge became more pronounced when one of her sons tied the knot early last year and very unlike the Alakijas of old, there was little or no noise about the marriage ceremony. During the wedding, the media was tactically controlled, photographers were not allowed to take pictures arbitrarily and anyone found doing so was asked to delete them. The planning of the wedding was on a need-to-know basis and guests who got the invitations were well scrutinized.

Marriage no be anybody mate... Na real hardwork e be.

Wealth alone can't sustain marriage neither poverty. Academic excellence is even the worst to sustain marriage.

Two fools can sustain marriage more than two wise people

Wow!

I used to think marriage gets easier to run after "the long run" than it is during the early stage.

Mehn. Even the rich cry!

Well, with time, humans may lose out on marriage. It's gaining some momentum globally already. As people become more successful and have options and have more consciousness of themselves.
All of the freedom it steals. Most of its fruits appear temporary and not for oneself.

I can NEVER marry a woman who is wealthier than me.
And I will never allow my wife to be richer than me. Never!

Women misuse power. They tend to insult men at the slightest opportunity they get.

Your marriage can not last if your wife has as much money as you.

I believe they'll eventually come back together, because they're already so used to each other.

All they just need is some time to cool off.

This is not just a simple issue that got them separated, it must have been something big, I pray they settle and find themselves in each others arms again...

Marriage is one of the hardest institution to maintain even with all the money in the whole world...

Not surprised at all.
But they tried sha
30 years no be beans.
And they may still reconcile.

Some people will say it's because she is wealthier than her husband. But that even those who are not as rich do divorce.
People divorce irrespective of social and financial status.

Marriage - the only institution you receive Certificate before you graduate. Matter of fact, there is no graduation.

Thought once a woman is wealthy it means she's a good one, or that her husband is a king?
