It is no secret that top celebrity blogger Linda Ikeji is now spotting a baby bump after she revealed the news of her pregnancy few days back. Since that announcement which took everyone by surprise not a few have been wondering about the identity of the man who put Linda in the family way.

Checks by Lagos Times revealed that the man rumoured to be Linda’s “Baby Daddy” is none other than Delta-born oil magnate Sholaye Jeremi who lives in the upscale Ikoyi axis of Lagos.

Sholaye is said to be a top associate of Minister of State for Petroleum Ibe Kachikwu. There are even rumours that the minister regularly uses him as a front to ink megabucks oil and gas deals.

Another gossip alleges that Sholaye makes a living from doing the bidding of the most powerful members of the industrial cabal like Femi Otedola, Aliko Dangote and Terry Waya. He is said to always be at their beck and call whenever there is any i to dot or t to cross.

Recall that few weeks back Linda stunned the world when she announced her engagement to a man whose name she continues to keep under wraps. Unconfirmed reports claim the man is Sholaye and she has yet to go public with his name because he is dragging his feet about marrying her and entering her world of fame and the attendant public scrutiny.

Neither Linda nor Sholaye has publicity come out to confirm or deny the latest reports. There are claims that Sholaye who is over 40 years old has performed a U-turn over their engagement and refused to settle down with Linda.
