Michael filmed the Tell All with Angela in New York and went missing from her house once they returned to Georgia.

Angela has since filed for an annulment. She’s hell-bent on proving that Michael trapped her in a fraudulent marriage to gain permanent resident status and wants him to be sent back to Nigeria.

Michael has made America his home and that’s where he wants to spend the rest of his life. Michael has been living in Texas. He has his own apartment and has a large group of friends he refers to as his “family.” He enjoys spending time playing soccer with them. Over the weekend, Michael posted a story showing him posing with his soccer team on the field. He captioned the Story “Winning Team” with an emoji doing a salute and tagged, “@unityfc.football.”

Now, he has been posting about things that give him joy, such as playing soccer, dancing in his room, or even cooking for his fam. Michael is also trying his hand at acting in funny skits on his IG and these are being received well by fans.

Michael did not feel safe living with Angela, especially after the wild antics she displayed while filming the Happily Ever After? Tell All. This is why Michael was able to raise more than $52,000 in his fundraiser when he only asked for $25,000. Fans didn't mind the rumors that Michael used part of the money to get himself a car.
