Sisters
who are both daughters of Nigerian billionaire, Mohammed Indimi, are
reportedly threading on a war path as one weds the ex-boyfriend of the
other.
Hauwa Indimi and her fiance, Muhammad Yar'Adua
Like gypsy moth eternally attracted to a flare, the Indimi sisters
court controversy with their lifestyles. But their father, Alhaji
Mohammed Indimi, the billionaire oil magnate currently enjoys the best
of a charmed life. Besides being rich, he recently became an in-law to
the most powerful person in Nigeria, President Muhammadu Buhari. Indimi
certainly has a knack for pitching his tent with Nigeria’s ruling class.
It would be recalled that he became ex-military President Ibrahim
Badamasi Babangida (IBB)’s in-law, soon after the latter made him a
billionaire. And while he struggled to accept the sad fate of his
daughter’s broken marriage to IBB’s son, Mohammed Babangida, his son,
providentially made him an-law to President Buhari by marrying the
latter’s daughter. Indimi founded Oriental Energy in 1990 and has since
expanded the company’s assets across international boundaries.
He is blessed with attractive children, especially his girls who
would give beauty pageants from any part of the world a run for their
money. In fact, judging by the way the close-knit sisters bond and
overtly show love and solidarity to one another and their ventures, they
have been labelled in some circles as the Nigerian version of the
famous Kardashian sisters. That unity seems doomed as one of his girls,
Hauwa, is about to be handed in marriage to a son of the late NNPC
Managing Director, Abubakar Yar’Adua, Mohammed, who was once reported to
have dated another Indimi sister, the famed Fatima whose explicit
images went viral few years ago. It is also a known fact that Mohammed
went on to date Zahra Buhari, now Ahmed Indimi’s wife, when after he
broke up with Fatima.
Ostensibly, this has created some bad blood among the sisters, as
they have been polarised in support for and opposition to the planned
wedding which is to take place next week. Adama, who just returned from
Hajj with Hauwa, has been everywhere to make sure things go right. She
was the first to release alluring pre-wedding images of the couple on
the social media, while others have ignored and continued to mind their
respective businesses which was quite unlike them. Indications of an
imminent hostility among these siblings emerged in March this year when
Hauwa got engaged with Mohammed.
Her engagement did not appear to have gone down well with few of
her sisters and the messy affair was taken to Instagram where they threw
shades at one another. Rahmayi, who is former wife to Mohammed
Babangida, was the first to fire a shot when she registered her
displeasure at the impending marriage with foul language on Instagram.
In her words, “…This is f—k, he’s an ex for a reason and now you
will go and bring the f—k back to my life. Nahhhh. I won’t support it.
There’s a code for this. Friends and family ex’s should be off the
table.”
Rahmayi’s sentiment was echoed by her sister and owner of Tulip Bistro in Abuja, Zahra Yakaka, who wrote, “If my sister is marrying my ex, she was never my sister in the first place.” Miffed
at their public outburst, a handle named ‘hauwaindimis_lovers’
responded and berated Rahmayi, advising her to respect her age, show
love and be happy for Hauwa.
