WazobiaFM’s staff and Instagram celebrity, Nedu has reacted to his ex-wife, Uzoamaka Ohiri’s allegation of domestic violence.
Uzoamaka who married Nedu in 2013 and divorced him in 2018, took to Instagram a few hours after Annie Idibia called out her husband, 2face, to also call out Nedu for alleged domestic violence while they were married.
She accused him of battering her few weeks after she had a caesarean operation.
Reacting to this, the media personality stated that he does not support or encourage any form of domestic violence whether targeted at a woman or man.
Nedu, who maintained that “he has never been one to physically violate anybody including his ex-wife”, noted that their marriage was plagued with lots of issues including “continuous infidelity from her side” which pushed him into conducting a paternity test on their kids.
He disclosed that the paternity test led to the revelation that their first son is not his biological son even though he was born within the period they were married.
The media personality wrote:
“My attention has been drawn to stories making the rounds on social media by my ex-wife (Uzoamaka Ohiri).
“While I am not one to trade issues on social media, it has become pertinent that I clear the air once and for all.
“First of all, I would like to state clearly that I do not support or encourage any form of domestic violence whether targeted at a woman or man. I have also never been one to physically violate anybody including my ex-wife.
“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.”
Nedu also pointed out that the issue of domestic violence during their marriage has been investigated twice, once by police officers in Ajah and another time by a competent court of law during the dissolution of their marriage, and he was cleared of the allegation on both occasions.
Nedu added: “On the allegation of domestic violence, we have had this matter investigated twice, (once by) the police station in Ajah and another (time) by a competent court of law during the dissolution of our marriage.
“Both times I was cleared of all allegations and I have the necessary proof to back up my claim. If anyone should be laying claims to domestic violence it should be me.
“It is heartbreaking that I even have to issue this statement under this circumstances as I have put the unfortunate incidents surrounding my ex-wife and I and the final collapse of our union behind me.
“I am appealing to my ex-wife to remember our kids and to not continue on this path she has chosen as the Internet never forgets and they will one day grow up to deal with this mess she is hell-bent on creating.
“I have no issues with her and would like to continue to mind the business that pays me.
“If she has any issues to join me with me, she is free to file her complaints and approach any court of competent jurisdiction to pursue justice.
Thanks”
