EXCERPTS
In 2008 also, aside from your career, your women and babies also made news, I mean three mothers, five kids successively…
Tuface: The public made a great feast out of my private life and that is because I did not pretend about all the happenings in it. People can talk about an incident, but it is horrifying when it becomes malicious and negative. Then you know there is a motive behind it beyond the fact that one girl is pregnant for Tuface. I love my kids and I do not want to be crucified for having them. Of course kids are beautiful gifts from God so why should I refuse them? I don‘t want these kids to suffer because of what you or the next person feels. They have come, they have come and there is nothing I can do about it. The only thing I can do is show them immeasurable love. In case you do not know, my children give me so much joy. My eyes glisten when I see them or hear their voices. Imagine how much joy the five of them give me. It‘s enough to last me forever.
If you are privileged to live another life, will you still do things the same way?
Tuface: E for fit still happen the same way oh, I no know. Na only God know.
Have you ever thought of the kids who are looking up to you as a role model?
Tuface: That‘s true oh. I understand you. Wetin I go talk now. I‘m not going to start killing myself. I just want to show my kids love and respect their mothers. I apologise to those I have disappointed, those that look up to me. I no tell anybody say na me holy pass but anybody wey no fit live the way I dey live make e no follow me do as I do. All these other artistes, I just want them to learn from me. Now I am their scapegoat.
Were the pregnancies planned?
Tuface: What do you think? They were of course.
So you were thinking when you did it?
Tuface: Yes, not just once but twice. The same people, so what does that tell you?
I don‘t know. Why don‘t you tell me?
Tuface: The same people carry belle for one person two times, reason it.
Are we expecting the third set of pregnancies?
Tuface: Don‘t expect the third one from anybody, e don do me like that.
So you are not looking at having anymore kids?
Tuface: I have hung my boots.
When are you getting married?
Tuface: Very soon; possibly 2009.
Will it be any of your babies‘ mamas?
Tuface: No.Pero Adeniyi has been labelled the enfant terrible among your women. What is the present state of her relationship with your mum?
pictured above Pero
Tuface: That is one issue that really hurts me the most. As I told you, when people write about me that I have a child some where, they do it with a malicious intent which is to mess me up. They do not restrict their stories to me; they go ahead and involve innocent family members that do not even have a hand on the issue. If they want to destroy me, fine, but when they decide to they should know those people to leave out. The whole thing is demoralising. It sends me into an abyss of sadness. I don‘t want to talk about it.
If you choose to keep sealed lips, you are only leaving room for more talk.
Tuface: Accepted, both families do not like the fact that we are having kids out of wedlock. No family would smile at that, so it is nothing unusual that I and Pero‘s families are not glad. The deed has been done; the kids are here and we are concentrating our energy on caring for them. All that talk is bullshit.
