Ex-footballer and Ambassador for sports and Tourism, John Fashanu, has opened up on his failed marriage which recently stirred up a lot of controversies. He has equally explained why he wears ‘Aba-Made’ clothes.
In a chat with The Punch, Fashanu recalled that he faced so many controversies following his divorce.
He said “That was barely five months ago. It was about the divorce, but the lovely thing about it is that when the dust settles, you are able to shake hands and agree to move on without any showbiz interference.
“Both of us are mature enough to move on with our lives. I have moved on four steps higher and I am sure the other party will step up and do wonderful things.
In the world of showbiz, any publicity is good publicity. I always try to turn lemon into lemonade. I have always been a game changer. I am someone that takes an A and turns it into B.
“People will always say things about you. Those things they say do not stop or end you. If there is anything, they give you more encouragement to prove to people that what they say is wrong,” he added.
Speaking further, Fashanu said, “I do not believe anybody in Nigeria should be hungry. It will be to our disadvantage if we continue to import goods from outside the country.
“A lot of my friends are surprised that most of my clothes are made in Aba, where some of the best tailors in Nigeria are located,” he noted.
Dailypost cullage.
Good for him.
ReplyDeleteGood 4 Him
DeleteThere's nothing wrong with made in Aba clothes. If it's nice and I like it, I'll surely buy and wear, I don't care. Provided it's not all them colour colour or yori yori tops. There's no big deal
DeleteTaaaa.. keep quiet will ya?
DeleteI saw ur handsome son who's ur replica yesterday. The kids u abandoned and have refused to cater for.
Stella I'll send you his children's pictures. A boy and a girl. The boy is about 6-7 years old. You'll think u are starring at John. These are his kids with Dolapo.. the woman he hibernated with before marrying Abigail.
So John, quit sounding like you are a responsible man cos u ain't. Why are all these women abandoning you? Same way ur second wife Melissa took to her heels. This is your 6th or 7th union, na only u get manhood?? Abeg go and sleep
this man is so annoying. i remember when he went for "i'm a celebrity get me out of here". that was when i realised how annoying he was. plus he is so scared of heights, it was funny
ReplyDeleteI love that.
ReplyDeleteI have seen some good Aba made clothes,with made in China or Turkey on the label. If only they could just put made in Nigeria on them.Nothing wrong with made in Aba clothes.
ReplyDeleteNot to undermine locally made stuff, but this JF don broke well well. So he has to make do with aba made.. so all this his sounding patriotic all of a sudden na wash.
DeleteAba tailors are truly very good. I patronize them. Some of them can compete with great designers out there. As for celebrities, I pity them, cos people will open their mouths and talk trash, without knowing what that person is going through. Dem strong no be small.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of your many flaws, I will always remain your loyal fan. Of course Aba made clothes are the best in Nigeria as proudly showcased in my husband's closet !
ReplyDeleteI believe you bro! :)
DeleteI used to like uncle John but with all the scandal about him and women I have started seeing him as a regular Blackman with attitude issues, with this open declaration of using Aba made clothes he has scored himself some good points in my book kikikikiki. This is really the only way to promote our local designers and fabrics. Imagine if all our celebrities patronizes Aba tailors................. Your guess? good as mine.
ReplyDeleteNot some Mr Fashanu.. you have the best tailors in aba. The very best so you can go ahead and say it anywhere that you wear aba made cloths. Keep saying it.. don't stop talking it
