Churchill said: “Our marriage was plagued with several frivolous claims of falsity, ranging from domestic violence to false allegations and all what not. I never laid my hands on her.

After Toke had filed a divorce in 2016, an Igbosere High Court in Lagos dissolved their marriage on the basis of extra-marital affairs committed on the part of Ayida.

‎
Toke also told the court that her ex-husband cheated with his mistress, Anita Solomon, an affair which produced a child.

She added that since they got married her husband had “behaved in a way she could not reasonably be expected to continue to bear.”

Agwu noted that his sickness had taught him a lot of lessons. He said, “I have learnt a lot about life. I don’t want to say some things but the fact is that I have grown. Life has taught me that it is important to strategise.”

Mercy Aigbe

Mercy Aigbe is a Nigerian actress, film producer, fashionista and businesswoman. She and Lanre Gentry, an entrepreneur got married on 19th December, 2013.

While Gentry accused Aigbe of sleeping around, the latter blamed her ex-husband’s mother for the failure of the marriage.

The actress got married to Kazeem Adeoti, her alleged ex-husband’s friend this year.

Aigbe said this about her first marriage: “I had a bad experience the first time, so I had some reservations and I just wanted to face my career, even though I loved him. I was happy and scared at the same time. Then, I was young and naive. Now, I handle issues differently. Also, the major reason my first marriage failed was because my ex-husband’s mum did not want him to marry from another tribe.”

Nedu

Chinedu Ani Emmanuel popularly known as Nedu is a Nigerian broadcast journalist, actor and comedian.

Nedu married Uzoamaka Ohiri in 2013, but their marriage crashed in 2018. Their marriage produced three children.

He wrote: ‘‘Our marriage was plagued with a lot of issues.
