Amidst the ongoing controversy surrounding Nollywood actor Emeka Ike's estranged marriage, his brother, Victor Ike, has come forward with weighty allegations against Emeka's estranged wife, Suzanne Emma.

This follows Emma's recent claims of enduring abuse throughout their 17-year marriage in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo.

In a strong rebuttal, Victor Ike countered Emma's accusations, asserting that she was the one who occasionally resorted to physical violence by slapping Emeka.

Furthermore, Victor alleged that Emma had withdrawn substantial amounts of money from Emeka's bank account without his consent.

This latest development adds a layer of complexity to the already contentious public dispute between Emeka Ike and Suzanne Emma, shedding light on conflicting narratives and further fueling the ongoing discourse around domestic issues within the entertainment industry.

In a series of X posts, Victor wrote: “I heard the lies made against my brother, Emeka Ike by his Ex-wife on @Chude show & @lindaikeji blog. So;

“She slapped him on a number of occasion but now claims he is a wife beater?

“She was a signatory to his bank account, and when he was alerted that huge amounts were being withdrawn constantly, he asks to be informed before withdrawals, then she turns it into an issue of being financially deprived?

“He sponsored her from the level of JAMB exams to University & then Masters. He opened CIS movie studio and a secondary school, both of which she was put in charge of and subsequently ruined, and now she claims he never allowed her work?

“She told lies against my mum, whom she beat up a couple of times. We had issues with my brother regarding this, but he was blinded by love. A woman he loved more than himself now wants to blackmail him, label him a wife beater & manipulate his kids against him? Why only use parts of his Voice Note and not the complete VN, If not for the intent to blackmail him with false allegations?”

He lamented that men’s voices don’t matter anymore because “when they try to express themselves, people don’t believe them.”

Victor Ike has taken a stance urging his nephew, Michael, to issue an apology to his father. This recommendation is specifically for what Victor characterized as "abusive words and insults" directed at Emeka during the interview with Chude Jideonwo.

It's worth noting that the dissolution of Emeka Ike and Suzanne Emma's marriage occurred in 2017 at a Lagos Island Customary Court, citing incessant battery as one of the reasons.
