He appealed to her to forgive him and professed his love for her.

His post reads in part:

"What happened was one of the attacks of the devil on our marriage. It was a fight for supremacy and submission. There is always no winner, I learnt.

"I feared that I was already loosing you, and I thought to myself that since I cannot have you, I must destroy you. That was love. The bad side of jealousy I guessed. I couldn't afford to loose you because of the enormous sacrifices I put into marrying you. In the process of that air strike---battling the air, I insulted the sensibility of fathers, family, friends and fans."

LIB reported that in December 2022, Oroufagha had called out his wife, family members and friends for betraying him. During that period, he had vowed to find out if he was their son's biological father.
