Actress and skit maker Oluwabukunmi Adeaga-Ilori, popularly known as KieKie, said she cohabited with her husband for four months before their wedding to avoid paying another year’s rent. 

Speaking during an interview with Toke Makinwa, KieKie said the decision was based on practicality.

She said they had already completed their traditional rites and were preparing for their white wedding, scheduled for January.

She said her rent expired during that period, and she chose to move in with her husband instead of renewing her lease. 

KieKie said people might judge the decision, but she was not going to waste money.

She said the church was unaware of the arrangement at the time, and she used to sing in church during that period.

“Before my husband and I got married, we lived together for about four months. My rent had expired, and we were getting married in January, so I said to myself, ‘Why pay another rent?’ People might judge it, but I wasn’t going to waste money. We’d already done our introduction. The church didn’t know about it, and I used to sing in church at that time,” she remarked.
