December 26, (THEWILL) – Adebola Adeyemo, former Personal Assistant to veteran Actor, Emeka Ike, has shed light on the frosty relationship between Emeka and his ex-wife, Suzanne Emma, alleging that she was the first to hit the actor.
“Before, I didn’t want to say anything because it has been a long time. When it started, people were calling me to say something, but I refused. Not until bros (Emeka) wanted to talk about it,” Adeyemo said.
Having close ties with both Emeka and his ex-wife, Adeyemo elaborated on the intricacies of their relationship.
He said, “I am very close to that family. I am close to both of them because me and mama started as models even before she started dating Emeka Ike. I am close to Emeka because of a job that we did together at Maryland.”
While corroborating what Emeka’s brother, Victor, had earlier said about Suzanne Emma being the first to strike, Adeyemo narrated an incident that happened during their visit to Osogbo.
He said, “Mama hit him first. She did so twice. We were in Surulere, we wanted to go to Osogbo to go and meet Laide because Laide was filming Jejere at that time.”
Adeyemo delved into a particular incident that escalated tension, involving Emeka’s daughter.
He recounted, “What caused the problem that day was the daughter, and that girl was like a year old at that time. They told us that Mama was supposed to go take the brother to the school, they now called that the brother was at the school, which is Jesse, the third born.
“When we got there, they said ‘Oh, they have gone home’. When we got to the house, we saw the girl at the walkway on the side and there was nobody with the girl. So he picked the girl, she already messed up her body. I was there, he was really angry and called Michael.
“Micheal was in the sitting room, so Micheal and Ken came outside and said they didn’t know anything. Mama was in the kitchen when she came and both of them were having an argument. I was coming downstairs and that was when Mama hit Emeka.
Victor had also said that the allegations made by the Actor’s ex-wife and his son were all lies, urging the Actor’s son, Michael, to apologise to his father for the abusive words and insults.
Victor, who is also a music producer, alleged that his brother’s ex-wife had slapped her husband on several occasions and even carried out bank transactions from the actor’s account she was a signatory to without his consent.
