										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p data-start="251" data-end="597"><strong>Veteran Nigerian media personality Kikelomo Abati, wife of renowned journalist and television anchor Dr. Reuben Abati, has shared a deeply personal account of her relationship journey. </strong></p>
<p data-start="599" data-end="1068">In a heartfelt interview on <em data-start="627" data-end="644">The Morayo Show</em>, Mrs. Abati recounted how her first marriage abruptly ended when she discovered her husband was gay. Her second marriage, she said, was troubled by abuse and infidelity.</p>
<p data-start="1070" data-end="1341">“For a woman who have divorced twice, first I married a gay person without me knowing… the second one was the biggest philandering and abuser,” she said, noting that those chapters, though difficult, shaped her growth and resilience.</p>
<p data-start="1343" data-end="1537">Mrs. Abati is a media host, author and consultant, well-known for her talk show <em data-start="1427" data-end="1445">RealTalkWithKike</em>, which airs live on Inspiration FM and Silverbird TV.</p>
<p data-start="1539" data-end="2004">Her candid reflections come against the backdrop of her marriage to Dr. Reuben Abati — a towering figure in Nigerian journalism and public commentary.</p>
<p data-start="3074" data-end="3409">The union between Mrs. Abati and Dr. Abati has become a story of second chances and enduring partnership — both having experienced past marriages before finding stability and mutual support in each other.</p>
<p data-start="3074" data-end="3409">Kike and Abati reflected their journey which underscores the complexity of relationships and the possibility of happiness after hardship.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>A former presidential spokesperson and co-host of Arise Television’s breakfast show, Reuben Abati has commented on President Bola Tinubu’s demeanour following his first media chat as president on December 23.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8293" src="https://dailydatesng.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/images-65-300x200.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="200" srcset="https://dailydatesng.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/images-65-300x200.jpeg 300w, https://dailydatesng.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/images-65.jpeg 678w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></p>
<p>Abati, who participated in the interview alongside six other journalists at the president’s Ikoyi residence in Lagos, remarked that Tinubu appears to have comfortably embraced his role.</p>
<p>During a discussion on the Morning Show, Abati noted that journalists were not required to submit their questions in advance, and he expressed that the president’s replies were articulate and substantive, rather than vague or overly simplistic.</p>
<p>He praised Tinubu for his confident presence throughout the conversation.</p>
<p>“I liked the fact that, sitting next to him, he has settled into the job. He knows what he’s doing. He spoke with a lot of confidence,” he said.</p>
<p>“I was shocked that this man… they didn’t even prepare him. He just walked onto this set and he’s sounding like this. That again is something to commend.</p>
<p>&#8220;He was relaxed. I thought I could rattle him once or twice.</p>
<p>“Nobody asked us to submit questions; President Tinubu didn’t say what are you going to discuss? In fact, we did not see him until he walked onto the set.”</p>
<p>Abati further advised the president’s media team to consider making the media interactions a regular occurrence.</p>
<p>“I was impressed with the fact that he was in very good spirits. He was prepared to take on the encounter and he was ready to talk to Nigerians,” he added.</p>
<p>By way of recommendation, his media team should do this regularly. Let him do it again and again, and talk to Nigerians.”</p>
