Mubarak shares what drove him to get someone else pregnant

An emotional Mubarak said he faced criticism in the last five years of their marriage over their delay in having kids.

He said friends, associates and others have gossiped about him even in his presence, accusing him of using his manhood for money rituals.

Mubarak said all these drove him into depression and in his desperation for a child, he put another woman in a family way.

"In the last five years I have faced a lot of criticism, I have been insulted both by friends and and associates. I have been gossiped about within to the point that people began saying that I used my manhood for money ritual. These things were said both behind my back and to face.

"I have faced depression at different times in the last five year, hid my pains yet moving around as though someone with no worries. Very few people understood what I was going through because i never discuss this issues with people."

Mubarak sought Oma's forgiveness

He noted that his wife eventually had kids and their marriage is blessed with a boy and a girl. Mubarak admitted failing his wife, whom he described as his prayer warrior, a trusted ally and confidant.

The father of three sought her forgiveness, saying to err is human. In his words:

"I have failed my wife for the first time, my prayer warrior, the mother of my home, I have caused her pain, pain unspeakable, I have disappointed her, I took a step without her knowing, Something we usually don't do. She is my confidante, and trusted ally yet I hid this information from her.

"I am human and also have fears, fear of the unknown is stronger than anything you can think of. I am sorry for my actions as I cannot turn back the hands of time. Oma, please forgive me. A lot of prominent people have been victims of what has happened to me, Having a polygamous home is not a choice I intended making."
