She divorced herself. Her blackmailers divorced her against her wish,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo woman walks away from four children\u2026[she] was told to close down the main business and leave. That is the only choice [she] had,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Emeka Ike believes that his wife was persuaded against her wish to collapse his businesses and finally abandon the marriage with four children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI own a secondary school. Each student pays me N840,000 each year. If there are 100 students that is N84 million. She shot down such a business. Why?\u201d the actor wondered.<\/p>\n<p>He advised young ladies not to allow themselves to be negatively influenced by friends.<\/p>\n<p>The actor also disclosed that he has shifted his attention from acting and now runs his self-owned TV Channel, Nollywood TV, on DStv.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the interview below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WCgWs_JHwBU\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Monday, 11 December 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-12-11 play videoEmeka Ike Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike has opened up on his collapsed marriage with Suzanne Emma in an exclusive interview with JoyNews.
