<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In an interview with TheNetng, Who
Wants To Be A Millionaire’ host Frank Edoho’s wife, Katherine Obiang,
talked about her 7-year old marriage to Frank. Read below:</span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">How are your kids?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">They are great.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">And how are they taking the whole
divorce issue?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">We are not really divorced. It’s
still a work-in-progress kind of thing but we are taking it well. When its time
for him to see the children, he does and when its time to return them, he does.
On my part, I<br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/null" name="more"></a>have carried the children along and make them understand they
are not stained because of it. I wouldn’t want them to develop a complex
because of it. We didn’t design for these things to happen but they do. It’s
like people who have lost their parents, they didn’t plan for it but they have
to move on. I watch them and I think they are doing pretty okay especially
because we talk about it every time there is a reason to.<b> </b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">You mentioned that you aren’t really
divorced. Does that suggest possibility of reconciliation?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">No, it doesn’t. We just started the
process but there isn’t any hope for reconciliation. We know we would always be
in each other’s lives because of the children, so we have to be civil. When the
children are getting married for example, we have to hide our differences and
make it work.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">What if he (Frank) came back, would
you consider it?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">No. Three years have gone by. It
will be a whole entire process of knowing somebody all over again and I don’t
have the energy to do that. We’ve let it burn and I don’t think he will do
that.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Do you sometimes miss him?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">He had such a great sense of humor.
I don’t know if he still does. His sense of music too, being a radio presenter,
and we used to exchange thoughts on things regarding that, but otherwise, I
don’t miss him in that nostalgic way of…It’s a part of my life I have come to
terms with. I am a solution oriented person. He was part of my life for more
than 10 years (dated for four years and got married for 7 years).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Looking back at everything, do you
wish you never got separated?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">No, I think Frank and I should not
have gotten married in the first place. We should just have been friends
because he was an awesome friend. While I was dating someone else and he had to
go back to his country, he (Frank) was there all through and I had known him
all the while he was in the University of Calabar and we started our career
together. I think we shouldn’t have pushed it to marriage and just stayed as
friends.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Any regrets about that?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">No. I have three lovely kids to show
for it and of course, every thing happens for a reason and a purpose. They can
only make us better or stronger people and it has done so for me. I have grown
from what went wrong.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">What is usually the cause of the
fight?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I think it’s impatience, anger and
not knowing how to deal with issue in the now, so you react before you think.
It goes like, ‘huh, how dare you say this to me…is that what you will say?’ I
can’t remember any one in particular, it has been long now, I have moved on and
it’s not a thing that can happen to me again but I always say no matter what, a
man should not raise his hands on a woman. A woman should also not goad a man
too much. It takes nothing from the man who walks away because once he hits a woman;
he starts to think it is justifiable. Unfortunately, we are in a society where
we have friends that will give you thumbs up for doing that. A man should be
calmer and not react on the now.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Are you making efforts to ensure
that your son isn’t wrongly influenced by this?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I have a son and I talk to him all
the time. I let him know he must be there to protect his sister. They should
look at him and feel safe with him and he knows that. The girls also push him
and I caution them, so it’s a balance.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Were you hit by the rumors of his
recent marriage?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I didn’t want to believe he was
because we are still married (legally). We are not divorced, so I didn’t see
how that was possible and didn’t loose sleep over it. I’m not asking him not to
go on with his life but things should be done properly. We are separated for
three years and now in the divorce process. If he found happiness and love,
then I’m happy for him.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">You just never know.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">If you would, what kind of man would
he be?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">You come to a point in your life
where you can’t afford to do things out of adrenaline but with great thought.
It would be a more mature person, someone who is calm and has a fine sense of
how life should be. Someone who is mature, wise and seen life and the ways of
the world and knows what he is doing at every time.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">When you think about all that has
happened, does it bring tears to your eyes?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">No, I feel a sense of disappointment
instead especially now when the children come home with questions that I need a
man to answer, if he (their father) were around. For example, someone to be
there for my son at a time when he is writing his common entrance examination.
It’s a feeling of disappointment, but you know, we have to rise above them and
you go on.</span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">What was your reaction the very
first time it happened?</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I’m like these things happen in
marriages but we think of reconciliation and getting families involved. It is
your first trial in marriage and nobody gives a guideline about how things are
going to be.</span></div>

Alert, what other steps have you taken to help women who are battling with

them know, the decision is theirs. A friend of mine was involved in this and
after we talk, she will go back to him. No matter what platform there is, it
rests on the individual. It is what I have arrived at. I still share my story
when I have the chance to. </span></div>
