Kwara Gov's Wife Steps In To Help Abandoned Blue-Eyed Mom, Daughters

Kwara State First Lady Olufolake Abdulrazaq has offered a helping hand to a woman Risikat Azeez who was abandoned alongside her two daughters by her husband Abdul-Wasiu Omo-Dada for having blue eyeballs.

Mrs Azeez had told newsmen that her husband married her that way and only changed after she gave birth to two children with the same kind of eyeballs.

Despite being the only one in the family with blue eyeballs, Azeez said she sees clearly with it.

“No one had this set of eyes before me in my family; both from my mother and father’s side. I’m the first to have this kind of eyes. And when I started bearing children, they also have it and I did not regret that I have this set of eyes with my children,” she had said in Yoruba.

After her story went viral, Mrs Abdulrazaq wrote on Twitter that she had reached out to the woman through her foundation, the Ajike People Support Centre.

Chief press secretary to the first lady Adeniyi Adeyinka when contacted told the newspaper that Azeez had been invited to see the first lady.

“Azeez has been gotten across to by the Director of Protocol to her Excellency, Hassan Raphael. She has been invited and when eventually she appears here, talks generally will bother on what she will like to do going forward, empowering her and afterwards mediate on how she will possibly be reunited with her husband – that is possibly,” Mr Adeyinka said.

He added that Abdulrazaq will speak with the woman on enrolling her daughters when schools resume.
