Veteran Fuji musician, Ayinla Kollington, has reignited public interest in the relationship with Queen Salawa Abeni, his former partner.
In an interview with Tejubabyface, Kollington said despite their separation and Abeni’s current relationship with another man, she remains his wife in his eyes, emphasising their enduring bond through their three children.
“That is how God wants it to be. She has three children with me; she is more than just a concubine. She is my wife for life,” he declared.
Kollington also touched on the challenges of maintaining relationships in the public eye, noting that the attention female celebrities receive from admirers can strain partnerships.

“She is a celebrity. And just like women chase after male stars, male fans also throw themselves at female stars. But a woman’s understanding is limited,” he stated.
He stated their connection endures despite external factors.
“No matter what I am doing, she always turns up. She’s still my wife. The person she is currently with is only loaning her,” he added.
