Ogbonna is ex footballer, Kanu Nwankwo's younger brother.

But for the alimony he paid to his ex wife, who is a Briton, and who bore him two children, he would have been regarded as very rich like his brother who was a footballer in big football clubs such as Ajax, Arsenal, Inter Milan, and some other clubs.

Ogbonna, also a footballer, played football in England and had a stint with the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

His British wife dragged him to court on the ground of infidelity in 2013.

Anyway, that’s not the news.

Laura and Ogbonna

Ogbonna is now engaged to celebrity blogger, Linda Ikeji’s sister, Laura and very soon, the couple will announce a date for their wedding.

Meanwhile, not all knew that the dude befriended actress Ebube Nwagbo between 2007-2008.

He reportedly dumped Ebube when he couldn’t cope with her alleged waywardness.

Though Ebube denied been dumped, she was quoted in an interview:

“He did not dump me. We had a mutual agreement. Nobody dumped the other. The relationship did not survive. We were dating; we had a relationship. But ours was just like any other relationship. However, the press did not give us any moment of rest. They married us and divorced us on the pages of newspapers and magazines. People kept writing things that were both true and untrue about the relationship in the newspapers.”

Ebube blamed journalists for the crash of the relationship.

“Oh yes, I blame journalists. They kept writing about us. Everything about me became news to them. I guess that is the price you have to pay for being a star. It was just too much. Anyway, I have learnt my lessons.

Asked if she was jealous of the girl in his life then (2008) and the pretty actress said:

“Why should I be jealous of her? I was the one that allowed her to be there in the first place. Please, there is no need for me to be envious of any babe in his life. I have moved on. It was not as if I was flaunting my relationship with Ogbonna. We were just like every other couple. But as it is now, nobody is going to know anything about my private life again.”

According to reports, Laura, a fashion entrepreneur whose business was set up for her by her blogger sister, Linda, started dating Ogbonna less than a year ago after meeting him through a mutual friend.

Ogbonna and Laura even spent their last Valentine together in Texas, United States of America. They went to Ghana where they privately celebrated Laura’s birthday on March 15, 2016.
