OJB's first wife explains why she donated her kidney to him

OJB's wife of 20 years, Mabel Okungbowa, donated her kidney to the prolific music producer a few months ago. In an interview with Punch today, Mama J as she's fondly called, explains why she did it.

She tells Punch
"I did not even think twice about it, I had it and I gave it to him. He is my husband, the father of our children and I love him. This is somebody I have been with all my life. I did not tell anybody before I decided to, not even my parents because I had foreseen their reaction. There was no reason to inform them.  When I married him, I told God I wanted the both of us to grow old together and live to see many generations. I am sure God knew this situation before he brought us together because not only am I a match for him, we are the same blood group and we are both stubborn.

  2. A good wife is a gift from God. I really appreciate OJB's wife. If all these tooth pick legged ladies can just be like her, I swear, having a wife will be every guy's dream.

    1. And of course, the African man's definition of a 'good wife' is one who will stick with him regardless of his many short-comings and utter wickedness in most cases. She is indeed a 'good wife'.
