Lagos socialite, and owner of the Surulere based House of Phreedah Skincare, Farida Sobowale, has said she attempted suicide because her husband betrayed her.
“I spent a lot of money thinking I’ve found love; a lover that promised me that I’ll have my own children in life. He promised to be with me amongst other promises. I’m not a child, I’m not stupid, and I don’t have a lot of money.“
Farida added that she also spent a lot of money visiting traditional medicine practitioners to procure concoctions for her man’s weak erection noting that the mixtures were so many that her house looked like a herbalist’s home.
She begged her fans and family to forgive her for the drastic action she nearly took to end her life and more importantly, for defying their advice not to wed her husband.
“I’m calling my sisters, elders, younger ones, and followers to forgive what transpired between me and my ex-husband.”
She continued by saying that she has resolved to move on and handed the matter to GOD.
On Thursday night, Farida Sobowale attempted suicide by trying to jump into a lagoon from the Third Mainland bridge.
This follows rumors that her two-month-old lavish marriage ended in divorce. Luckily, she was rescued by passers by.
