Emeka Ike Accuses Chris Okotie Of Interference In His Marriage Woes

Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike, has accused Pastor Chris Okotie, of the Household of God Church, as being behind the ongoing crisis in his family.

The actor and his wife of over ten years, Suzanne, are currently in court – with the latter calling for the dissolution of the union. However, Mr Ike is pleading otherwise and pledging his continuous love for the woman.

According to him, in spite of all his efforts to get his wife to rescind her decision and withdraw the divorce case, Okotie is allegedly pushing her on. He revealed that the pastor got his wife a Senior Advocate of Nigeria to pursue her case, gave her N500,000 for her mother’s burial and bought her a mobile phone.

“Yes, Pastor Chris Okotie just absolved (sic) my wife into his church without making any effort to get in touch with me,” he said. “If as a pastor, your church member is having issues with her husband, and you failed to do anything to resolve it, what kind of pastor are you? When I called him, he refused to pick my call. He also failed to react to a text message I sent to him. Is that a man of God?

Even, if you have a police case, they will make effort to hear from you before taking a position, not to talk of the church…I want the whole world to know because there is a lot of misinformation out there. The lawyer which Okotie hired for my wife is also frustrating every attempt I make to resolve the matter peacefully.”

Responding to the allegation, Okotie’s media consultant, Ladi Ayodeji, denied knowledge of the development. “This is completely news to me, but I will bring it to the attention to the pastor and I will get back to you,” he said.
