Magazine, business mogul and philantropist, Dr. Olakunle Churchill, has opened

See excerpts;
Besides What we know, can we be
privileged to get to know you in person?
There is
nothing much to know about me, My name is Olakunle Churchill, the Chairman of
Big Church Group and other subsidiaries including Big Church Foundation
Recently, your househelp or domestic
staff disclosed to an online media that you had issues with wife and you have
not been at home just after your December foundation project last year
Every family
has its ups and downs but I would not want to talk about my family.
It was said that after you left home,
you were alleged of having affair with your female PA?
Well, it’s
funny to me, because I don’t have female personal Assistant, My PA is Mr Paul,
who has been working with me over the years. Besides, it was a sponsored
blackmail.
Gist had it that your wife Tonto Dikeh
Churchill caused uproar in your mother’s home, i.e her mother- in-law, when she
was alleged to have pushed her down and broke everything in her house within 2
hours due to her marijuana reactions.
These issues
are private to me and my family.
Rumour has it that because of domestic
violence from you that your wife moved out with your son?
I wonder
where they got such gist from? I don’t believe my wife will say that, besides I
frown against such even my foundation preaches against domestic violence in
some of our charity awareness campaigns. It is obvious that all these
channelled attacks are targeted to drag my image and what I believe in to the
mud. Well, the truth is that I have never raised my hands against my wife. I
have evidence of CCTV Cameras in my mums house when this happened. It can be
replayed if you what us to go that far.
The news earlier today posted and
deleted by one Uche Maduagwu that you have relationship with Bobrisky and
Swanky Jerry? What is your take on that?
Truly, I did
not see it posted because am not a social media person, but got wind of it
later. It’s sincerely beats my imagination to think of such relationship…well,
don’t know Bobrisky but got to know Swanky Jerry through my wife. I believe
whoever my wife likes as a friend, I also take as a family friend. Am too busy
to think of such unpleasant issues, let alone cooking up defence.
Your son’s one year birthday is few
days from now, do you have plans to celebrate it? Guess you will be celebrating
him with your wife?
Oh! My son, I
sure miss him so much. I have planned a worthwhile birthday party for him with
friends and family members but it’s sad to say that all effort to reach him
proved abortive, and this is affecting
my business and emotions, The mum won’t pick calls and the nanny, Our son has
been with the mother and not at home for now. I truly, should not be granting
this interview if this is all about my family. Am very optimistic that the
family will unite together for King Andrea birthday even though channels to
reach my wife is temporarily off.
How do you perceived all these
happening in your family
I see nothing
in it, it’s a phase of life. Since it does not affect my cheques and savings.
But I truly want to call on bloggers or on social media addicts to verify facts
before assuming. Every marriage has good and bad moments, it’s just unfortunate
that I recently discovered that the alledged marriage instability is making
headlines on some media platforms. Please Tonto Dikeh fans and well wishers
take it easy on her, guess she is still adjusting to motherhood. With time, it
will be well.
The news had it that your son owns his
own company Kindred Realtors, a real estate firm, don’t you think his is too
young?
(Laugh), the
company Kindred Realtor was actually one of my companies before I changed it to
our son’s name after his birth. I feel it’s one of his benefit to start
building up a brand for him as he grows.
Toast Magazine
Let him see his son, stop the diva attitude, humble yourself marriage is not a bed of roses Tonto.
