Funke... run. Unless you're one of those typical Lagos women who overdoses on Gucci and Valium to get over her husband's philandering.

Run Funke Run!
Heartbreak overdose. Abi kuku???
Unless you really know what you are getting into and promise to love, cherish & share this man with many many women.

Chilling said...

Less crowd they say, but the people these families know will all pack themselves to Dubai for the wedding. It will still be a funfest of the rich and famous!

Why all the slurs about Abi? He cannot be that bad. He’s been wife hunting for a bit (well so his sisters said,) so Funke has to be the one. All the best.

its actually a lot cheaper to have a wedding outside Nigeria when u analyze it. And less rowdy too.

Tart! said...

It pains me when women do this to themselves. A man that has shown his true colours, do we expect him to change once he says "i do"?

I can understand if he was a saint before marriage & switched on your ass. But since this is not the case, who will you complain or cry to? What will you say?

I guess she is desperate to be a mrs.

This babe needs to keep her business to herself considering there are many women this man has deceived, and they will only try to get back to hurt him, and will hurt her in the process.

I repeat...this is a very odd hook up. Hey funke aint a saint but funke and abi kuku...hmmm, we just all know this going to be a bumpy ride. i mean abi kuku all of a sudden becoming a faithful husband...not in this life!

Anonymous said...

on the flip side...funke is stuck up and arrogant...i can see her as preferring to be an unhappy mrs funke kuku than a happy mrs "nobody"..goodluck to her..we just know this is going to be drama filled. this dude has hurt soooo many woman, even my dog no go gree marry am

Anonymous said...

the best dressed Nigerian lady in my books.

They are both adults walking into the marriage with their eyes wide open.
Marriage is a mutual transaction ..... I doubt Funke would be going in if heartbreak was the only benefit therein.

GETTING MARRIED OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY IS AT LEAST 75% CHEAPER..THE AMT OF MONEY I SPENT ON MY WEDDING WHICH WAS EXQUISITE, HERE IN THE US WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE COST ME DOUBLE IF IT WAS IN NIJA..

Keke said...

wow so he is a heart breaker interesting, i don't even know who he is..but many years ago when i was much younger..my big cousins used to hang out Femi Kuku who must be his older brother....with these socialite guys..the normal thing is that they will definitely cheat even when married..it appears that with his sordid reputation he might be unable to avoid infidelity..so the Funke girl has to be ready for battle...

Seriously anonymous 2:35 PM?
Since when is dubai neutral ground? maybe you confuse it with Jerusalem???

Kemiismyrealname said...

All of you mind your business if you have nothing positive to say about these two. Are they marrying you or your sister/brother? Did they invite you to Dubai? Did Funke ask for your opinion on her man? Or Abi ask you? What is your own? Leave them to get on with their lives.

Since you have described her as nasty, arrogant and him as a philanderer and so on, then you should be happy they are getting married to each other not so?

They will be as happy as the next married couple. There is
no relationship without ups and downs so what???????


We will rock Lagos and Dubai and we pray for them to
have a successful, happy marriage, blessed with beautiful
children in Jesus name. Amen.

A word of advice: stop helping other people count their
blessings. It leads to envy......count yours.

Abi kuku is a player

Cinderbarbie said...

This post is just too funny. Naijas won't kill me. But a lot of you are right about the "town boys or bad boys". You can only HOPE to change them. The change hardly ever comes. I was married to one for 6 years. Tried all I could to have him to myself but had to constantly fight off women. Heartache was my best friend. It is not worth it. I had a huge wedding, had the best of most things but there was no love, trust nor respect...Never again

Dubai's not cheap though...

Anonymous said...

Na wa for you bad bellies on here. Even the worst player is someone's husband.. Is he the only one? He and his friends are fun to hang out with. They held Lagos as the fun guys for so long.. I'm talking Sola Ojora, Kojo annan, Obaro Ibru, Maje Ayida, Richie shittu etc. Don't hate

Anonymous said...

There are more people doubting the success of this marriage than well-wishers. I sincerely hope the couple will prove the doubts wrong and make it work, especially funke, she's has to work twice as hard for the marriage, if I'm to base my opinion on the antecedents of Abi and the attitude of funke.

I don't know this people personally. But i seriously think its no one's business, they are consenting Adults. If you don't wish them well, you know what they say about if you have nothing nice to say.

Have you stopped to think of what they would feel is they read all these comments from haters. Don't give them anymore advice thanks.

I wish them a happy married life....... you all would be proved wrong.

All the female haters on this thread were obviously used and dumped by the Abi guy.

Funke was good enough to get him to say...sorry

Dubai is a beautiful city compared to Lagos and its a very great way to cut unwanted guests like for example.....linda plus ten.

what exactly constitutes making a marriage "work"?
so if they are still married in 20 years but can't stand each other behind the walls of their house; then Funke would have successfully kept Abi?
Just wondering ..............

Jules said...

Nigerian ladies always bitter, will always look for ways to put pple down. Can u all just wish them the best and move on with ur sorry lives!!! Gosh

Anonymous said...

Funke is a really sweet person. Cant understand why people call others snob cos you are not chummy and all with them. Why cant we just let both of them be??? Think there is just so much envy and haters... Leave them alone. let us not talk about people we do not know or share an understanding. Life is a boomerang. Whatever you do will come back to you, so let us stop all the hating and allow two grown adults live their life in perfect peace.

Anonymous said...

This Funke sef doesn't have 'eran ife'-people just hate her for things that should be overlooked. I've met gals who're more famous and nastier than Funke, yet the hate isnt this much.
I'll be married to one of Abi's friends soon,I've met Funke a couple of times and she's ok. We all are not perfect but she's not as bad as painted.

U guys r just hatred men. Funk is lovely girl and I love her.

Wish them well. These guys (mentioned by Anon July 21, 2011 6:32 AM)... are some of the most fun and nicest guys I ever met. Yes, they can't keep it in their pants for too long, but believe it or not they are getting old and not very fond of their bad reputations anymore. Everyone has their vices and many work to overcome them. Let them be, I believe they can all change. Even Obaro, lol. BTW, don't know about the entire family but Abi is muslim. When's Shola getting married and to who?

Anon are u getting married to Maje? Cinderbarbie, sorry o!

The rest of y'all: live and let live people!

Where's my comment?

Anon sept 26, 12.06pm. You're right about those guys, a friend of mine dated Kojo for 3yrs but he disgraced her out of his life. Even while dating her, he had other ladies and he thought he was a god.
Now, he's in accra and lives a low key life, he's truly now responsible.
An advantage is that anylady that marries shola O, Richard S, Kojo A and even Abi K will enjoy them. They've had their fill of women.
Banke B is not enjoying Ladi cos Ladi never rocked life before settling down.
