The story of Risikat Azeez, a young Nigerian woman abandoned by her husband because she and their two kids have blue eyes has taken the internet by storm. The woman who lives in the Nigerian state of Kwara was reportedly dumped by her husband, AbdulWasiu Omo-Dada.

In an interview with The PUNCH, 30-year-old Azeez said her husband started acting differently when she gave birth to the two kids with the same set of eyeballs. “He totally changed and he would shut me up and walk out on me whenever I tried to start a conversation with him”.

She sees clearly with her eyes, despite the colour.
