How I met my wife and my promise to her – Richard Mofe Damijo

Richard-Mofe-Damijo

Have you ever wondered how actor-cum-politician Richard Mofe-Damijo met his wife, former on-air personality, Jumobi?

Wonder no more!

In a chat with Punch newspaper, the entertainer who previously married May Mofe-Damijo (nee Ezekiel) of blessed memory, narrated their meeting thus  “We met at Africa Independent Television almost 20 years ago where I attended a function. We were introduced, became friends and we’ve been married for 15 years. I like brilliant women who are dark and beautiful. I used to call her Adumaradun, a Yoruba praise word for beauty. She is consistent and is my anchor.”

Also a doting father, Mofe-Damijo places much value on family and would not give it up for anything in the world.

He notes, “When I became a commissioner, I promised my wife that I would not stay away from home for more than two weeks. In the eight years I worked with the Delta State Government, I practically flew in and out of Lagos every week at great personal expense. I love my family and my life is defined by my family. They give me stability.”
