Uzoamaka Ohiri, former wife of comedian and talk show host, Chinedu Ani, a.k.a Nedu, says that communications issues were solely responsible for the disruption of their marriage.
She said that their marriage was plagued with domestic violence and that it was not the DNA test report that led to their eventual divorce, as some people love to believe.
She alleged that her ex-husband does not know the last child of the marriage, a four-year-old girl, because, she said, he walked out of the marriage a few days after the child was born.
She said that she came to the open with her issues because she could no longer cope with taking care of the children’s needs, single-handed, without their dad’s support.
Uzomaka bared her mind on PUNCH Live on Tuesday.
Her revelation is coming a few days after her ex-husband had alleged that she was unfaithful during their marriage and that her alleged infidelity had led to her bringing another man’s son home.
On his part, Chinedu had said,“Our marriage was one plagued with a lot of issues, one of which was continuous infidelity from her side that led to me conducting a paternity test on our kids, which led to the revelation that our first son is not my biological son, even though he was born within the period during which we were married.”
Reacting to the claim, Uzoamaka stated that she was already pregnant for her ex before she got married to Nedu, albeit, unbeknownst to her.
Uzoamaka claimed that shortly after the previous relationship ended, she decided to get to know Nedu, then they got married while she was pregnant, not knowing that he wasn’t responsible for the pregnancy.
She said, “If I knew that my son — my first child — was not for him, I wouldn’t have gotten married to him. I can’t deliberately take another person’s son and give it to him.
“I was pregnant during my wedding ceremony. Everybody could see it.”
She further stated that she didn’t know the paternity of her son before the DNA test was conducted.
