Taking to her Instagram stories, she wrote a lengthy message that read:

“Many individuals assert that I possess a powerful, mysterious allure, which is why I am particularly cautious about the people I allow into my life. Ending a relationship or friendship is always challenging for me.

“My beloved super star, we’ve journeyed far together, and I’m truly grateful for the grace God has bestowed upon our lives. We both struggled to make this work, even in the face of divorce. I understand how careful you were to keep your tamily in the dark about what was happening behind closed doors, knowing that it would start another fight.

“I know how hard you fought to be a loving father to your children despite family pressures. I understand the emotional pain you’re experiencing due to your separation from your beloved family (John 10:10), despite your efforts to portray a false sense of happiness on Instagram to appease them. You are a wonderful man, and I will always be there for you physically and spiritually.

“I am using this opportunity to express my sincere apologies for the negative impact my posts may have had on you. Given the nature of your job, peace is essential for you, and because of your purity, I bear no resentment towards you. I believe a child’s greatest blessing is being born to a loving mother (not evil).

“We’ve both forgiven each other and realized our mistakes. If I could wish anything at this moment, it would be for divine grace and strength from God to help us co-parent harmoniously and ensure our children feel a sense of pride in us. I wish you all the best.”

While her message highlighted Sonia’s reflections on their tumultuous relationship, including their struggles and the challenges of co-parenting, she duly acknowledged Ighalo’s efforts to maintain privacy and be a dedicated father despite their messy separation.
