God forgive me for telling this story...but here goes...some guy in the US by the name Philip is accusing Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike, of sleeping with his wife, one Ruth Okoro...he said Emeka has been sleeping with his wife for over two years..they always got together whenever Emeka came to the US. Hmmm, according to dirty gossip, Emeka was caught in a hotel with the married woman at midnight by the woman's husband. The police had to be invited, other Nollywood actors witnessed the incident in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. It's such a long, messy scandal but y'all need to know Emeka denied being intimate with the woman, saying they were family friends, but another famous actor corroborated the man's accusations, saying Emeka and Ruth had been spending the night together through out the shoot of the movie...So many people were involved, so many things went on...but let's stop here b4 someone serves me...lol
