Hear Solomon Akiyesi in his own words below;

I've not only suffered verbal attacks, but also vituperations and near fisticuffs, all because of another futile attempt of mine at my journey towards achieving that which I honestly and passionately desire – a peaceful home and family. Social network sites and blogs have been awash with how I left Lilian, my "pregnant" wife, to marry Uloma, my Lagos "mistress" whom they also claimed was pregnant for me. Nothing can be farther from the truth.
.
Only a mad or cursed man would simply leave his pregnant wife and elope with another one. And lest I forget, I urge you, as you read this, to have an open mind to listen to that which is true instead of taking sides and jumping into wicked conclusions with its attendant wicked insults and uncouth commentaries about how Solomon is running his life and how he is not. I'm not asking for pity or trying to buy anybody's love at this time.
.
This is my life. If at my age I don't know what I want, then I may just remain the dumb ass that I've been called over and over again. I don't think I need anyone to give me any lecturing on how I should exercise my privileges.
.
For the record, I never planned on marrying more than one wife. And unlike the serial husband I've been labelled, I had dreamt and planned a lovely home and family.
.
And my quest for this dates back to 2003 after I had moved into Port Harcourt. I soon settled down with Ezinne, my university days girlfriend, whom I ran into in Port Harcourt during her National Youth Service.
.
As fate had it, we couldn't help reliving old times and one thing led to another. One fateful, rainy Thursday evening in October, 2002, Ezinne came to inform me that she was pregnant.
.
It was as far as I was concerned, a devastating blow to the new life I was living; rap music, cars, money and women. So, I told her the pregnancy was unacceptable to me. Besides, I only just started working and needed stability. But months later, Ezinne was to inform me that she was carrying a baby girl.
.
And knowing my attachment to baby girls and not wanting to ever have a baby outside wedlock, I repented and changed my thuggish ways and asked her to marry me, more so that I was mature enough in every ramification. Or so I thought.
.
And so, sometime in April, 2003, I hired a hall and invited a pastor to come officiate at my marriage with Ezinne and bless our rings. All done, we went home and started as husband and wife. God, the creator, knew how glad I was and looked forward to a happy home. However, five days after that marriage, I called my new wife on my way from work to ask what was up for dinner and she told me she had been in the hospital.
I just hope he knows what the bible feels about divorce when ur wife is still alive. If he does, then he can carry on
