I Was Never Married or Engaged to Segun Ogungbe – Omowunmi Ajiboye Clears the Air
Nollywood actress Omowunmi Ajiboye has finally broken her silence on her rumored relationship with filmmaker and actor Segun Ogungbe, stating unequivocally that she was never married or engaged to him, contrary to widespread speculation over the years.
In a candid statement posted to her social media, the actress addressed the long-standing misconception, expressing that it was important to set the record straight, especially for the sake of her children and peace of mind. Omowunmi, known for her roles in Yoruba-language films, clarified that while she and Segun Ogungbe worked closely on several movie projects and shared mutual respect professionally, their relationship was never formalized in any marital or engagement context.
The actress’s remarks sparked a wave of reactions online, with many fans expressing surprise at the revelation, given how often the duo were perceived as a couple within the industry. For years, media outlets and gossip blogs referred to Ajiboye as Ogungbe’s wife or partner, an image that, according to her, created personal challenges and misrepresented the truth.
“I’ve kept quiet for years because I believed silence was golden. But not anymore. I owe it to my family and my truth to make this clarification. I was never married or engaged to Segun Ogungbe,” she wrote.
This development adds a new twist to Nollywood’s complex web of personal and professional relationships. Omowunmi Ajiboye has called on the public to focus on her work and upcoming projects rather than fueling gossip and speculation about her personal life.
As the conversation around public perception and celebrity relationships continues to grow in Nigeria’s entertainment space, her statement serves as a reminder of the importance of personal boundaries and public narratives.
