Fani-Kayode, Ex Deny Kemi Olunloyo’s Kidnap Claim

Fani-Kayode has denied Kemi Olunloyo’s claim that his ex-wife Precious once planned to kidnap her, calling it completely false.

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has denied claims made by controversial media figure Kemi Olunloyo, who said his ex-wife, Precious Chikwendu, once tried to kidnap her.

A video shared online showed Olunloyo alleging that Fani-Kayode personally gave her information about a kidnapping plan involving Chikwendu.

Reacting to the video in a statement he posted on social media, Fani-Kayode said he was not involved in the matter at all. According to him, it was his ex-wife who first sent him the video.

He explained, “My ex-wife and mother of my four sons Dr. Precious Chikwendu sent me a video of my childhood friend and sister Madame Kemi Olunloyo in which the latter made extensive comments about a matter and a number of individuals that does not in any way involve or concern me and my family and in which we have no interest.”

He strongly denied the claim that he told Olunloyo anything about a kidnapping. “The only thing she said which is of any interest or relevance to me and mine in the entire broadcast is the baseless allegation that I had told her that Precious had planned to have her kidnapped some years ago. This is patently false. I never said anything of the sort and my sister Kemi is in error.”

He went on to say he believes Olunloyo might have simply made a mistake. “Given my friendship and close relationship with her over the last 43 years I do not want to believe that she said it out of malice or with evil intent but rather that her memory did not serve her well and that it was a genuine error. That is the light in which I view this matter.”

Fani-Kayode also clarified that he now has a peaceful relationship with Precious despite their past issues. “Precious and I have had our differences in the past but we put all that behind us long ago. As the mother of my children she remains part of me and my family. We enjoy a cordial and close relationship even though we are no longer married and I would appreciate it if you would please leave us both out of your public discourse.”

On her part, Precious Chikwendu gave a fiery response on Instagram, accusing Olunloyo of lying for money and trying to distract her during her custody battle.

She wrote, “Shut up demented fool! I paid you less attention then because you needed to survive based on the pennies you were paid at the time.”

She also accused Olunloyo of being flown into Abuja for the purpose of spreading false stories. “He flew you into Abuja then for the stories you peddled and you got some pennies as well as gate crashed my children’s birthday as the ‘akpiri malt that you are.’”

Chikwendu added, “You were a small irrelevant fry to distract me from fighting for my kids which was the ultimate battle. Why I like this allegation of yours is that you roped @real_ffk as your source and I have tagged him to see for himself because on this one, I will be waiting even if you arrive Nigeria in 20 years.”

She further wrote, “Madam I was petitioned by Grace with assassination bull crap, how did it end? Your mouth only flows with your rotten saliva and nothing to back it. Where was your petition submitted? Wetin I wan kidnap you for? You were irrelevant then and are still irrelevant now.”

Chikwendu slammed Olunloyo’s credibility and accused her of damaging lives with false stories. “Your podcast lies were revealed after I dragged all the doctors you claimed certified me of schizophrenia and bipolar before the medical and dental council and they all were in tears before my eyes. You are mentally sick and it is evident.”

She continued, “Those you destroyed with your delusional podcast back then are still seeking my forgiveness and you still have some left over nerves to mention me when I intentionally forgot you out of respect for my mother’s age mate? I never had respect for you anyways so get lost and pls find the meaning of ‘Riwa nsi onu’ and apply it!”

Fani-Kayode and Chikwendu got married in 2014 and have four children, including triplets. Their marriage ended in 2020 following a widely publicized divorce filled with accusations of violence, emotional abuse, and child custody issues.

Chikwendu had claimed that Fani-Kayode abused her and kept her away from their children, while he denied the accusations, saying he was only trying to protect the children. Their breakup drew national attention as both of them made several strong claims in public.
