Saidi Balogun replies Fathia, insists he didn't take her to court over use of name

This Saidi man has time sha. Always replying...lol. So yesterday the actor's ex-wife Fathia Balogun released a statement claiming she's in court with the actor over the use of the name, Balogun (if you missed it read here). Saidi says they are court for something else and not over any name...
Yesterday I was accused of lying to the press on a recent rumor that has been circulating. I separated from my ex-wife Fathia Balogun in 2006, over 7 years ago. Since we were legally married in court, we had to legally divorce in court to finalize the issue. The public is welcome to go to the Lagos High Court to verify these records. This has absolutely nothing to do with any name. I am not asking or forcing Fathia to stop using the name Balogun, as it is one of the most common Yoruba names.
Furthermore, to set the record straight, Fathia and I had two children together not three. Fathia’s first child is from a different husband that she later divorced before we were married. I never lied to anyone.
Journalists presented me with a rumor that had no basis in fact, so I simply stated that I DO NOT WANT MY PRIVATE LIFE MADE PUBLIC. IT IS MY PRIVACY AND CONCERNS NOBODY.  
I decided to stay quiet as the two parties involved in this issue are over 40 years old, and I think we are old enough to handle this issue MATURELY instead of turning our private matters into a public gossip debate. 
I hope this issue is now clarified for the public, as I SAIDI BALOGUN am divulging the true facts myself instead of using a MISINFORMED publicist to do so for me.  
There are so many positive aspects of Nigeria’s entertainment industry, we would rather focus on negative meaningless noise instead of these positive components. 
 PLEASE GIVE ME THE RESPECT OF KEEPING MY PERSONAL LIFE PRIVATE AND OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE. I AM FOCUSING ON MY WORK. THANK YOU!

    1. Then why did he say the public can go verify things with Lagos high court? And why did he mention the innocent 1st child she had withher ex-husband? Gentleman you called him? If he's so gentle, why sling mud at his ex-wife, the mother of his kids? Be honest and ask yourself these questions

  32. Whatever made husband number one divorced a woman , will still make husband number two to divorce the same woman. Its only a matter of time b4 it happens. A bad woman is a bad woman any day no matter how she tries to hide her character. She had a baby for a first husband and divorced him and u self jumped in, thinking the same thing will not repeat itself again??smh Why do you think pple ask questions about a woman and her family b4 they get married to them?? Anyways just move on and pray GOD gives you a better wife.

  74. What. Ddo u mean by 'this man has time' Linda? Why wouldn't he clarify himself if a negative impression about him is spread by pple like u. He has to defend himseelf and that doesn't make him less of a man. U guys like to form unneccessarily.

  76. Saheed has done well by defending himself abeg. Why is the woman running to the press always to complain?? The guy said earlier nothing was wrong with them bcuz he wanted them to handle the divorce issue maturely. Why is fathia now complaining that he wants her to drop his name?? By the way, why is she still bearing saheed's last name(balogun) ?? I thut if person rejects devil, she should also reject his work?? Pls fathia drop his name and moving on. U cannot claim you are for God and still go to the shrine to eat sacrificial fowl and goat. Drop the man's name and let him be. Linda oya do the needful ozugbo ozugbo.

Let's leave that...buh infidelity, if his remorseful and ready 2 yield maybe making frantic effort 2 make amends pls subdue ur ego too buh not quick enough so as to knw if itz real....coz u don't knw wot's going happen in ur next relationship and if again in africa u loose ur worth...pls don't insult after diz coz i've avoided paroxysm or rage in my dictions....*PoetOracle*
