She recounted a specific incident at the hospital when their child was seriously ill, describing how Ike verbally berated her and physically assaulted her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a time we went to the hospital; my child was sick. We didn\u2019t have money. And I was trying to negotiate with the hospital to treat the child, and we would pay later. It was taking a little bit of time, and he [Emeka Ike] just came in and started yelling at me, \u2018You\u2019re a fool. You don\u2019t know how to do things. What\u2019s all this? You can\u2019t even talk to them. Who are they? They\u2019re beneath you, and you\u2019re allowing them to do this and all that.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I got upset and said, \u2018Sir, why are you being a jerk?\u2019 And I went off into the car to sit down. Immediately he [Emeka Ike] was coming into the car; his punch was the first thing that I was seeing on my jaw.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DAILY POST recalls that a Lagos Island Customary Court dissolved the marriage between Emeka Ike and his wife in 2017 due to incessant battery. Emma had approached the court on July 13, 2015, seeking to dissolve the 14-year-old marriage with the Nollywood actor.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Emeka Ike punched me when our child was sick\u2019 \u2013 Ex-wife, Suzanne Emma speaks up<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Suzanne Emma, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor Emeka Ike, has responded to her ex-husband\u2019s recent claims that her allegations&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8398,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3302,4,15,7491],"tags":[3304,7493,171,3303,180,7492],"class_list":["post-8397","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-emeka-ike","category-entertainment","category-news","category-suzanne-emma","tag-emeka","tag-emma","tag-entertainment","tag-ike","tag-news","tag-suzanne"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8397"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8397\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
