Here's what he wrote;
"Its obvious that Emeka Ikes ex Wife wants to destroy Emeka. If not, she Would have
listing to Emeka's plea. MY plea. Her own family members plea. Emekas family members plea. even the judges plea. All failed. Why? Because she and her sponsor have made up there mind to try to destroy Emeka Ike.
How is it that somebody you have 4 kids for, knelt down for you at the centre of the court room and you still did what you did? Well it is ok. You made up your mind to leave him, but why dont you then just leave this young man in peace? You have gotten the divorce. Why organize a press Conference? You dont have good advisers, if not you would have remembered that you have kids for this man.
So how are you going to erase all the nonsense you and your sponsor put on the internet for your children not to see them in future? To my knowledge i am aware Emeka Ike sponsored you to university, even up to your Masters. I am aware that Emeka Ike too open a Joint account with you, which means he truly loves you.
He doesn't control your spendings. I am also aware that Emeka Ike opened a secondary school for you which you could not manage. Hmmm the white man says if you want to Kill a dog you give the dog a bad name. That is what you are trying to do to my good Friend Emeka Ike.
All i will tell you is that you stop trying to destroy this man. You had your own short comings but he tolerated you. Or you want to tell Nigerians that you are a perfect human being and you didn't have any fault in the marriage? Please madam stop destroying your ex, it is not good for you and your children. You only know today you dont know tomorrow because tomorrow is pregnant."

Man sent to Kirikiri prison for marrying another wife, after wife's 13 years of barrenness
Adolphus Eze-nwagu, who was charged with assault after a fight ensued between him and his wife who he alleged has been barren for 13 years, has been remanded in Kirikiri prison. The 50-year-old man from Awgbu town in Orumba Local government of Anambra State, reportedly battered his wife at their residence at 12 Musibau Saidi Street, Fatoki in Egan, a suburb of Lagos State.
Telling his own side of the story, Adolphus said he was left with no option than to marry another wife, as he had taken his wife of 13 years to various churches and hospitals. According to him, he discussed this option of a second wife with his wife, Ngozi, and even allowed her to find a new wife for him. However, he alleged that the lady his wife Ngozi brought, was not up to his standard, so he told her he was going to the village to get a much younger wife.
PM Express reports that when he arrived Lagos with his new wife, Ngozi was so bitter that she seized the house documents which she destroyed, alongside other valuable properties.
Adolphus who claimed he was arrested by Ngozi's family members, after he tried stopping her from destroying more things, pleaded not guilty to the one count charge of assault at a court in Ejigbo. He was also granted bail in the sum of N50,000 with two sureties in the like sum, and will be remanded in prison till he met the conditions.
The case has however been adjourned till April 10, 2017.

“Yes, I was his juju man. I performed the special ritual that made his escape from the Owerri High Court. -Vampire Native Doctor & Accomplice Arrested
Some days ago we reported that notorious Vampire's native doctor has been arrested. The Native Doctor, Iweajuo Gad who was arrested at his residence in Aba, alleged that he prepared the charm that enabled his escape from the Owerri High Court, with 3 other native doctors.
“Yes, I was his juju man. I performed the special ritual that made his escape from the Owerri High Court.
I did it with the assistance of three other herbalists. Part of the rituals included causing
disagreement among prison officials. We got the names of 7 prison officials through the help of Vampire’s brother.
I was paid N700,000 for the ritual.”
Gad also went on to disclose the notorious kidnapper was killed because he probably forgot to use his disappearing charm, which he was supposed to tie round his waist.
One of the arrested suspects, Chukwuebuka Ikeazota, who spoke to newsmen, alleged that Vampire also killed his 3 cousins and a soldier before his death.
“I am related to Vampire by blood. He stopped coming to our house about 10 years ago, after he killed a soldier in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. I didn’t see him again until 2015, when he was arrested.
Before his arrest, he killed three of my uncles because they swindled him of some money he gave them to build a house for him. I used to visit him while he was in prison; to buy him food. .
During one of the visits, he gave me a note to take to his native doctor in Abia State. He was always in constant communication with my elder brother Cornelius. He (Cornelius) was the person Vampire gave money to buy SUV for him and he knows where Vampire kept his weapons. .
Vampire usually gave out his rifles for hire to various gangs of kidnappers operating within the state. It was Cornelius that organised the boys that went to the court to rescue him. Thereafter, they brought him to our house. Two days after his release, he regrouped his boys and they went into town, kidnapped four persons.”
Wife Remanded In Prison For Stabbing Husband To Death Due His Unability to Stop Playing Baba Ijebu
A Lagos High Court sitting in Ikeja, on Monday, ordered the remand of a
29-year-old housewife, Onyinyechukwu Akunne, for "stabbing" her
35-year-old husband, Mr. Abuch Akunne, to death.
The wife, who was arraigned before Justice Josephine Oyefeso, on one count of murder, contrary to Section 221 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The prosecutor, Mrs. C. k. Tunji-Carena, said the defendant stabbed her husband with a kitchen knife in the chest on March 28, 2015, on Idimu Road, Ejigbo, Lagos State.
In a confessional statement, which the police claimed that she voluntarily made, Akunne said she was from the Ukpor area of Anambra State and had been married to the deceased since 2012.
The marriage, she said, was blessed with a four-year-old female child.
She explained that trouble started on March 28, 2015, after an argument broke out between her and her late husband over the husband’s alleged gambling habit.
“He used to lose huge sums of money to Baba Ijebu and I warned him to desist from playing the game,” Akunne said.
She added that on the day of the incident, her husband, after losing money to the game, came home in anger and picked a fight with her.
“He came home angry after losing to Baba Ijebu. I told him to stop wasting money on it. When I asked him why he refused to stop playing the game, he started slapping and beating me.
“He picked the kitchen knife that I was using to slice okra and we both struggled for the knife, while he kept screaming that he would kill me.
‘‘At a point, I pushed the knife right into his chest and he fell,’’ Akunne said.
Justice Oyefeso adjourned further proceedings in the matter till March 6, 2017.
The judge ordered the wife be remanded in the prison.

I Know My Husband's Weakness, She's Lying Against Him – Apostle Suleman's Wife
You can only imagine what is going on in the church and household of a
popular Nigerian pastor, Apostle Suleman Johnson, following the scandal
trending online between him and a lady whose father, a Reverend,
described as a daughter who took after her mother's wayward ways.
Anyway, Apostle Suleman's wife has reacted to the saga.
I watch a video on my timeline this morning were his wife said she's a trained media person and it is clear to her that the Snapchat clips that were released of her husband in bed enjoying the sight of Stephanie Otobo's bre*sts are fake.
She said she's being married to Apostle Suleman for 19 years and as a 'wise woman' she has not had any reason to suspect him of infidelity and that she's sure he's not promiscuous.

Women Protesters Storm Court Again For Patience Jonathan Seized $15m
Patience filed the suit to reclaim a sum of $15m, which the EFCC seized from four companies last year.
The companies were linked to a former Special Assistant to ex-President Jonathan on Domestic Affairs, Waripamo-Owei Dudafa.
The EFCC froze the accounts of the companies last July in the course of probing Dudafa, who has now been charged with money laundering.
Since Patience filed the suit seeking to take possession of the $15m late last year, the protesting women had been a regular feature on the court premises located along Oyinkan Abayomi Drive in Ikoyi each time the case came up for hearing.
On Monday, like during the previous hearing days, the women, who were dressed in different colours of lace, ‘ankara’ fabrics and red or yellow headgears, turned the court premises into a carnival ground of sorts.
Meanwhile, the proceedings in the case before Justice Mohammed Idris was stalled on Monday as the EFCC refused to accept the service of a new application filed by Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), who just came into the case as the lawyer for the 4th and 5th defendants.
Apart from the EFCC, the other defendants in the suit are Skye Bank Plc, Dudafa, and the four companies linked to him.
The companies are Pluto Property and Investment Company Ltd, Seagate Property Development and Investment Company Ltd, Trans Ocean Property and Investment Company Ltd and Avalon Global Property Development Ltd.
Ozekhome filed the fresh application in response to the counter-affidavit filed by Skye Bank Plc.
A lawyer, Mr. Amajuoyi Briggs, who deposed to the affidavit in support of the fresh application, said he had engaged Ozekhome to represent two of the companies.
“The said Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN) has accepted the engagement and will henceforth represent and defend the said 4th and 5th defendants herein,” Briggs said.
He claimed that he was the secretary to the two companies, adding that he was the one who incorporated them.
“To the best of my knowledge, all through the period that I served as the companies’ secretary, up till the time that I was charged with the companies in charge number FHC/L/337/C/16, the companies did not engage in any profitable business during the period in question,” Briggs said.
The EFCC lawyer, Mr. Rotimi Oyedepo, however, refused to accept the service of the new application from Ozekhome in court.

Twitter Goes Berserk After Ben Carson calls slaves 'immigrants' who came to America with a 'dream'
Ben Carson on Monday likened slaves who came to America centuries ago to modern-day immigrants searching for a better life.
Carson's remarks, his first since being appointed to head HUD by President Donald Trump, outraged social media.
'That's what America is about,' Carson said in remarks which were broadcast live on social media.
The secretary was addressing the federal workers at his department in Washington as well as employees in HUD offices throughout the country.
Actor Samuel L. Jackson tweeted: 'OK!! Ben Carson....I can't! Immigrants? In the bottom of SLAVE SHIPS??!!'

'A land of dreams and opportunity. There were other immigrants who came here in the bottom of slave ships, worked even longer, even harder for less.'
'But they, too, had a dream that one day their sons, daughters, grandsons, granddaughters, great grandsons, great granddaughters might pursue prosperity and happiness in this land.'Those in attendance did not raise any objections to the remark, but on Twitter, however, people were far less forgiving.

My husband agreed I sleep with our labourer and is now accusing me of adultery - Woman tells court
An estranged wife, Modupe Daisi, on Monday, told the Customary Court sitting in Aiyedun-Ekiti, that her husband, Sunday Owolabi, consented to her dating their farm labourer, only for him to accuse her of adulter
The plaintiff was seeking an order of the court to retrieve the N50, 000 receipt of the farmland she bought through her husband in 2009.
Modupe giving evidence before the court alleged that her husband had once told her labourer, one Ojo Folorunso, to feel free to have sex with her.
She said that her husband later turned around to accuse her of adultery.
She said,
“My husband had some time in the past told the man, who was assisting me on my farm, to feel free to date me.
My husband even showed Folorunso where he was operated on when he had a surgery.
My husband, then, said that he could no longer perform sexually as a result of the surgical operation he had.
In December 2016, I went to spend seven days working on our plantation.
On my return home, my husband began to threaten me that he would kill me with a machete.
He alleged that I went to enjoy myself with my labourer.”
The woman told the court that she divorced her husband 10 years ago, but they resettled two years after when the man came to plead with her.
The 75-year-old husband, Sunday Owolabi, who was absent in court on Monday, was, however, represented by his younger brother, Omoniyi Owolabi.Omoniyi told the court that his elder brother’s absence was due to an illness.
He said that the defendant chased out his wife because she was alleged to have eloped with her farm labourer.
The president of the customary court, Mrs Yemisi Ojo, in her ruling, ordered that a search warrant be sent to Sunday’s house.
Ojo said the search warrant should retrieve some of the property the woman claimed she could not pack along with her while leaving her matrimonial home.
The president also ordered that the plaintiff should bring a witness to the court that would affirm her claim of paying for the farmland in contention.
She then adjourned the case to March 27 for the continuation of hearing.
