Simon Guobadia Moves to Block Ex-Wife Porsha Williams from Nigeria: “You’re Not Welcome Here”

• Businessman Simon Guobadia has told a Nigerian court he’s pulling Porsha’s residency sponsorship
• The businessman stated recently that she used documents from their marriage to travel post-divorce
• Porsha's camp, however, declared that she is unbothered and focusing on her Atlanta life and RHOA filming

The fallout from Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia’s short-lived marriage has taken another dramatic turn.

Simon, who hails from Nigeria, has told a High Court of Justice in Kaduna State that he no longer wishes to sponsor Porsha’s residency permit in the country.

According to documents obtained by TMZ, Simon made it clear that his ex-wife should no longer benefit from paperwork tied to their former marriage.

The entrepreneur explained that he was alerted by Nigerian authorities that Porsha traveled to Lagos in December 2024 using a document that had been issued while they were still married.

He insisted that since their divorce has been finalized, he has a duty to cut off the sponsorship.

In a statement to TMZ, Simon said:

“It was brought to my attention by the Nigerian Government that she traveled using a document issued during our marriage. I was advised that, given our legal divorce, I have a duty to withdraw the sponsorship associated with that document.”

He added that he was particularly disappointed that Porsha attended the lively “Detty December” festivities in Lagos last year despite their split.

Simon went further, telling the outlet that his action was also in line with a promise he made on Instagram, that Porsha would not be welcomed back for Nigeria’s famous December celebrations this year.
