Mansura Isah, the Kannywood actress, has announced the end of her second marriage, describing the ordeal as “sudden and shocking”.
The film star married her second husband in June 2024, after splitting from Sani Danja, another Kannywood star.
Speaking on BBC Hausa’s Mahangar Zamani alongside ace actress Fati Mohammad, Mansura disclosed that she thought she had married for love, “but in the end, it became clear that his intentions were different. It wasn’t real love”.
Mansurah recalled how she met her second husband through an uncle after securing a business contract in Lagos.
The actress disclosed that since she had no representative in Lagos, she reached out to him to oversee the deal.
“Suddenly, he proposed marriage, and I accepted, believing he was sincere. He even assured me I could continue my acting career. We had a nighttime wedding, and by morning, he left for Lagos,” she said in Hausa.
The movie star revealed she was “shocked” when he presented a contract agreement during the wedding ceremony and “coerced” her to sign over control of the “N4 billion project”.
Mansurah said she later realised he intended to take control of the project under the guise of romance.
“I never saw him again after that. He stopped answering my calls and eventually divorced me,” the actress said.
The movie star revealed that when confronted in Lagos, he claimed he had “forgotten” he was married. She added that he had initially refused to issue a divorce, but he later relented under pressure.
