Kwara gov’s wife offers to help abandoned blue-eyed trio

Published




Kwara State Governor’s wife, Olufolake Abdulrazaq, has offered to assist a poor blue-eyed single mom of two Risikat Azeez.

Risikat Azeez was dumped by her husband, Abdul-Wasiu Omo-Dada because of the colour of her eyes and that of their two children.

Azeez, who said she sees clearly with her eyes despite the colour, lamented that her husband, who married her that way, changed when she gave birth to two kids with the same set of eyeballs.

She narrated her experience of living with blue eyes which is alien to the dark hue that most people have in this part of our world in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital.

The mother of two, who spoke in Yoruba Language, said, “I was born with these eyes and I also gave birth to my children with same pair of eyes. Since I was born, I have never had any challenge with my eyes. I have never been to the hospital due to any discomfort. I thank God.

“No one had this set of eyes before me in my family; both from my mother and father’s side. I’m the first to have this kind of eyes. And when I started bearing children, they also have it and I did not regret that I have this set of eyes with my children.”

Also, her sister, Balikis Azeez, whose eyes’ colour is black, said:

“When my sister was born, people thought she had eye problems but upon medical examination, the opticians said there was no problem with her eyes; they said she has foreign eyes.”

The blue-eyed mom added:

“As a young girl, I was later taken to the hospital for medical examination and came back home with lots of gifts because the doctors liked my eyes. They also said there was nothing wrong with it.”

She further stated:

“My husband whose name is Abdul Wasiu Omo-Dada is very aware of the condition of my eyes and he loved me for who I am. Things started getting bad when I had my first child and later my second child. He totally changed and he would shut me up and walk out on me whenever I tried to start a conversation with him.

“His parents even told him, ‘Will you keep on giving birth to children with this kind of eyes?’ He changed to the extent that he would leave the house for a whole week before coming back home. There was no food and no provision that I had to go to my parents’ place to feed.

“My parents later asked me to leave his house. Since I left till now, he has not shown up to ask why I left or ask after me.”
