Two major wars have broken out in the family of 56-year-old Nigerian government contractor and Managing Director of Kaztec Engineering Ltd.,  Emeka Offor, as he prepares  to perform the traditional marriage of his new 24-year-old wife, Adaobi Ufondu, in Anambra State on January 3, 2014. This is because his two wives and siblings are fighting against his acquisition of third wife. Immediately his first wife, Nkiru (nee Emoke) from Imo State, who has not left her mansion on Osborne street in Ikoyi, Lagos to Oraifite for many years, heard about Offor’s wedding intentions, she announced that she would celebrate the Christmas and New Year at Oraifite.
 
Meanwhile, Mrs Nkiru Offor’s decision to be home for Christmas and the New Year has caused the husband to start building a house at the back of his own castle where his new wife will live so as to minimize contact with the first wife, for fear that any contact between them could lead to a fracas.

Construction started on December 19, 2013, and work has been going on round the clock in the hope that it would be ready as much as possible by January 3, 2014, when the traditional marriage ceremony will be performed.

Second war started few days ago when Offor revealed that he would pay the dowry of the second wife named Joy once he concludes the marriage ceremony of the newest wife.

As if to worsen matters, Offor also announced that he would participate fully in the 80th birthday celebration of Joy’s father, Sir Enoch Chukwureh, holding this weekend at Ubahu, Orodo in Mbaitoli Local Government area of Imo State.

These disclosures have infuriated Offor’s siblings who feel betrayed because they have been in support of his third marriage as a way to spite Joy whom they accuse of being responsible for the first wife’s abandonment.

Both Nnamdi and Menkus, Offor’s younger siblings, were not only present at the dowry payment for Adaora on Saturday, October 12, 2013, at Umuezopi, Oraifite, but also served as bouncers as they collected cameras from guests and damaged them in full public view in a desperate attempt to prevent the public from having details of the event.

Fearing that his newest wife cannot withstand the tremendous tension in his extended family, Offor has already informed Adaora’s father, Chief Alexander Okey Ufondu who is a trader based in Onitsha, Anambra State, that his daughter will return with him to his house after the ceremony, instead of being with him (Offor) for the time being.
