He said the allegation of bedwetting was meant to ridicule him and bring him down. He also denied ripping her off. He accused Kefee of denying him sex, “always crying when I touch her and at some point, she suggested I get other girls to sleep with so long as I don’t leave her”.
The divorce was eventually granted and after a particularly difficult period of moving on with her life, she fell in love again. This time with on-air personality, Teddy Esosa, who ─ by the way ─ was her former husband’s good friend. They secretly got married in 2012 (pictured).
She seemed to have found perfect happiness and her career was revived again. Her rise has been phenomenal and now now goes on performance tours in different countries.
Kefee had this to say about her new husband in an interview last year: “My husband is a very nice guy and I am actually writing a book about my first marriage. The bottom line is that I am happy and if you ask me, this is the first time I am getting married… We’ve known each other for a long time, and when he felt it was time, he proposed to me. The rest is now history, like they say.”

The death of Kefee on Friday morning followed weeks of speculations that she had come out of the coma after collapsing on a 14-hour flight to Chicago, United States, for a performance.
The cause of her ill-health was initially reported as pregnancy-induced high blood pressure but it has now been confirmed as “lung failure” by her UK-based manager, Adeline Adelicious Adebayo. She reportedly never came out of the coma, despite a message being posted on her twitter account claiming she was back to life.
She had been in coma for six days before ─ when she was much younger.

The mother said on a TV programme two years ago: “As a devoted Christian, our family always fasted every Friday. Then, one day, Kefee slumped and was unconscious for six days. Considering that I had lost a child before, I couldn’t bear the pain of losing another one. I would roll on the ground, crying and praying that God should restore my child to good health.”
Luckily, she came back to life, but the miracle was not to be repeated this time around, sending her fans into tears and sorrow.
