My Pregnancy is for Tuface Idibia,Female Banker Teniola Opens Up

Her name is Teniola and she is a big girl in one of the top banks in Lagos. She said 2face has been enjoying her secretly for sometime now until the “rough play” resulted in pregnancy and he started asking her to go in for an abortion but she refused. She said the story was leaked to the media so as to protect her life. She decided to speak after Annie tried to defend Tuface. In the words of Teniola: “My name is Teniola. Please I want my privacy kept secret. I just want to respond to Tuface’s denial of my pregnancy. I‘m 3.5 month pregnant for him and he is fully aware of it. His recent denial is to appease his wife and I understand that… “Note, I didn’t receive any money from the magazine that published my story. My elder sister took my story there to draw public attention incase something bad happen to me. And I’m not really happy about it. Please I want privacy for myself and my unborn child.” Meanwhile Tuface Idibia and his wife Annie are trying hard to deny the story that he has put his account officer in the family way, In his earlier reaction, Tuface had claimed that the story is false and that if he impregnated any lady he would be the first to tell the media. On her part, Annie Idibia said those who wrote it want to spoil her happiness. But now that Teniola has finally come out to speak by herself, it’s believed that Tuface may decide go and do the honourable thing then keep quiet and take care of his unborn baby mama as the price of his enjoyment”. Teniola said she is not for trouble but that Tuface should know that séx without condom leads to pregnancy.
