Sir J vs 1st wife: Lagos sends important message to police

Ikeja, Lagos state - Amid a marital conflict between popular X user, Suraj Oyewale and his estranged wife, Aminah Oyewale, the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) has asked the commissioner of police (CP), Adegoke Fayoade, to investigate the matter immediately.

Legit.ng reports that Sir J trended on X on Friday, June 28, because he discovered that his first wife reportedly contacted a herbalist on TikTok to block him from taking a second wife.

Amid the marital feud, a domestic violence allegation was raised against Oyewale, with the social media commentator and businessman admitting to the offence in now-deleted tweets.

The real estate CEO proposed to a young Muslim woman. Out of nowhere, his first wife's family member apparently used a burner account to expose Sir J as Oyewale is fondly called.

She said Sir J is a hypocrite and should stop pretending like he had not picked a wedding date already with the new wife, and should stop acting like a good man after allegedly beating his first wife, who, according to The Punch, he is planning to divorce.

Reacting to the domestic abuse allegation against Sir J, Adejoke Ladenegan-Oginni, the head of the public affairs unit of the Lagos DSVA, released a statement.
