She explained that she had asked about his marital status before agreeing to meet him, only to later learn he is married with a daughter.
Sarah Martins told her followers that she was more upset by his decision to deny his family while publicly professing love to her.
“Never trust the loyalty of a poor man… News reaching me is that Opeyemi the dispatch rider is a married man.”
The actress added that she had been assured that the dispatch man had never been married, only for neighbours and colleagues to inform her that he used his wife as a guarantor at work.
“Before I took him out on a lunch date I clearly asked his marital status and he said single and never been married.”
The actress, who has been in the public eye for years due to her outspoken nature and frequent social media engagements, said her frustration stemmed from the disrespect shown to the man’s wife and child.
“My main anger is the audacity to deny his wife and child and publicly humiliate them by professing love to me.”
She noted that she still intended to give the man a motorcycle donated to him so he could better support his family.
