The public feud between Nollywood actor Emeka Ike and his ex-wife, Suzanne Emma, has taken a new turn as their son, Michael Ike, sheds light on his deep-seated aversion towards his father.
In the midst of Emeka Ike’s public accusations against his first wife, Suzanne, Michael has emerged to express his intense disapproval of his father’s actions. Emeka Ike made public statements attributing the loss of his school and children to Suzanne’s alleged misconduct, portraying a sense of despair.
Suzanne quickly refuted Emeka’s claims, alleging his aggressive behavior and recounting a violent encounter that nearly left her paralyzed.
For Michael, the revelations and dispute between his parents have only intensified his dislike for his father. He openly confessed, “When I met my mum, the first thing I said was I really hate my father.”
In response to Emeka Ike’s public discussions of their private family matters, Michael confronted his father, expressing his dissatisfaction and emphasizing the disrespect that was being inflicted upon their family. He narrated a heated exchange, “I told him we need to talk. I added that I’m not happy about the way you’re talking about our private affairs. Can you just stop it? And I had to tell him the disrespect he left on the family. I decided that this not the kind of person I should have respect for.”
In a startling revelation, Michael disclosed a disturbing message from his father, wherein Emeka Ike allegedly condemned his son’s aspirations, ominously proclaiming, “you’re doing music, you will never prosper. Don Jazzy will never see you. If I see you on the side of the road, I will spit on you.”
The tumultuous relationship between Emeka Ike and Suzanne Emma culminated in the dissolution of their marriage by a Lagos Island Customary Court in 2015, amidst allegations of battery.
The emotional turmoil within the Ike family serves as a stark reminder of the complexities that often underlie public figures’ personal lives, leaving a trail of fractured relationships and unresolved grievances.
