    Daddy Freeze in fresh trouble as Court orders him to pay N5m for committing adultery [See evidences]

     

    A High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State on Thursday 18th February, 2021, ordered that Mr Ifedayo Olarinde, aka Daddy Freeze, should pay N5m for committing adultery with his lover, Benedicta Elechi, with whom he bore a son, Jason, in 2015.

    The presiding Judge, Hon Justice Akpughunum in a judgment which lasted more than one hour 3Omin, ruled that Benedicta’s husband proved his case of adultery against Daddy Freeze and Benedicta through photographic, documentary and electronic evidence and also by the admission of Benedicta Elechi herself. The Judge referred to Benedicta as a ‘self-acclaimed adulterer”.

    It should be recalled that both Daddy Freeze and Benedicta were married to different spouses at the time of her pregnancy for Jason. Freeze’s marriage to his ex wife, Opeyemi, collapsed in the course of the extramarital affair and the marriage was subsequently dissolved in 2019 by a Lagos High Court.

    Early in the extramarital affair, Freeze was alleged to have gone on social media to spread the falsehood that his wife was violent and was often beating him up. The PortHarcourt judgement has now revealed that the theatrics was all part of the crisis he instigated in both his home and the home of his lover Benedicta to justify their unholy relationship.

    Other details of the Port Harcourt Judgement are: -Dissolution of Benedicta’s marriage to Paul Odekina based on Paul Odekina’s Cross Petition. Benedicta was unable to prove allegations of abandonment and sexual impropriety against her husband whereas her husband was able to prove his case of adultery against her.

    Furthermore, the court dismissed Benedicta’s prayer seeking N1.5m monthly upkeep, one Brand new car every three years, Annual vacation abroad, share in the family estate and many more on the grounds that she did not establish any of her claims.

     

    The court also granted custody of the 3 children from the marriage to her husband, declaring that she was unfit in character and behaviour to bring up children, citing her admission of adultery, her conduct during the trial and her statement that she would not recommend her conduct to her daughters. The court also ordered Benedicta to hand over the children’s birth certificates and international passports to their father, Mr Paul Odekina.

    The Judge further ruled that the adopted daughter of the erstwhile couple, who is a biological daughter of Benedicta’s sister is to remain in their joint custody.

    Pastor sues Apostle Suleman for N2bn

    A former minister at the Omega Fire Ministries International, Mike Davids has filed a suit against the church and its general overseer, Apostle Johnson Suleman, seeking N2billion for allegedly unlawfully interfering in his marriage.

    Mr Davids had petitioned the Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Adamu last week accusing Suleman of committing adultery with his wife Pastor Faith Edeko who now heads the Utako, Abuja branch of the church.

    Both Suleman and Edeko have denied the allegations.

    However, on Thursday, Davids filed an action in Pet/041/2021 before the court, accusing Suleman of destroying his home and preventing him from seeing his three children.

    In the petition for decree of recompense of conjugal rights, the petitioner stated that he married his wife pursuant to Section 24 of the Marriage Act at St. Andrew’s Cathedral, Ekpoma, on December 6, 2008 by virtue of which only a High Court can annul.

    Davids, among other reliefs, prays the court to issue an order of perpetual injunction restraining Suleman, the church and their agents from gaining access or relating with his wife and three children.

    He is also seeking, “an award of punitive and exemplary damages in the sum of N2bn against the defendants for unlawful interference with the claimant’s contract of marriage and the cost of N2m being the cost of prosecuting this action before this honourable court.”

    Adultery: Assemblies of God Church sacks General Superintendent

    The Assemblies of God Church has sacked its General Superintendent, the Reverend Chidi Okoroafor, over an alleged immoral sexual relations with a married woman.

    The General Overseer’s dismissal was announced during the church’s General Committee emergency sitting on Friday after the leadership of the church considered a report of his alleged immoral relationship with a United States-based woman, Mrs. Maurrissal Nwosu.

    The Panel which was headed by a former Lagos District Superintendent, Rev Isaac Mpamugo, was said to have established an immoral relationship between Okoroafor and Nwosu which it said was contrary to Biblical principles and the Constitution and Bye-Laws of Assemblies of God Nigeria.

    The Executive Committee of the church has now ordered Okoroafor to hand over all Assemblies of God properties in his possession.

    Rev Ejikeme EJim has now been appointed to take over as Acting General Superintendent.

    However, a top member of the church who confirmed the development claimed that Okoroafor was not given a fair hearing.

    “Yes, our boss, the GS has been suspended, though he was not given a fair hearing, even the woman at the centre of it all was not invited. But he has accepted it, he has handed everything to God,” Daily Post quoted a source.

  • Monarch sacks staff member for adultery

    Monarch sacks staff member for adultery

    Thai King Maha Vajiralongkorn has sacked a member of his staff for adultery.

    According to a royal gazette announcement published, on Saturday a male staff member of the royal chamberlain committed “an extremely evil act’’ by having an affair with a married woman when he himself is married.

    “His action has caused family conflicts and bad reputation for his unit. His behaviour is unfit for his rank and position,’’ the statement read.

    Although the king’s dismissals of his staff and military personnel over “extremely evil acts’’ for a variety of wrongdoings is not unheard of, it is the first time the dismissal is solely based on an extra-marital affair.

    Since ascending the throne in late 2016 following his late father king Bhumibol Adulyadej’s death, the 66-year-old king has made several moves to consolidate control over the palace and in politics.

    A three-time divorcee with seven children, the king ascended the throne unmarried.

    His much-delayed coronation will take place on May 4, just one day ahead of the anniversary of Bhumibol’s coronation, nearly 70 years ago.

  • ‘My prophet husband committed adultery with five women, wife confesses

    An Ado-Ekiti Customary Court, ‎on Thursday, dissolved the 16 years marriage between Mr Emmanuel Jegede and his wife, Olubunmi, both clergymen.

    The marriage was dissolved on the grounds of threat to life, provocation, stubbornness, lies and adultery.

    The petitioner, Mr Emmanuel Jegede, 41, a clergyman, a resident at Irewumi quarters, opposite Bawa Estate, Ado-Ekiti, told the court that the respondent was arrogant, lazy, stubborn and unsupportive.

    He explained that the respondent, who gave birth to three children for him, was not willing to work to assist him in taking care of the children’s welfare.

    Emmanuel said that she was the only one responsible for the family upkeep including the education of the children.

    The petitioner, therefore, pleaded with the court to separate them and award the custody of his three children to him for proper care.

    The parties have since January 2016, stopped living together, as the petitioner had remarried ‎a new wife.

    The respondent, Mrs Olubunmi Jegede, 39, a prophetess, trader and resident at No 31, Ifesowapo quarters, off Nova Road, Ado-Ekiti, denied all the allegations levelled against her.

    She alleged that the petitioner was an adulterous man and that in 2008 alone, he committed adultery with five women in their church.

    The respondent added that she even caught more women with the petitioner in their parish.

    The mother of three children told the court that for two years, the petitioner abandoned her and the children.

    She said the petitioner preferred to drink beer to stupor and smoke cigarettes instead of taking good care of her and the children.

    Olubunmi said she was responsible for the school fees of their second child, Elizabeth, 6, since 2015 to date.

    She consented to the decision of the petitioner that the court should dissolve their marriage.

    The respondent, however, prayed the court to award the custody of her three children to her for proper care.

    The president of the court, Mrs Olayinka Akomolede, observed that the marriage had broken down irretrievably and consequently dissolved the marriage.

    She awarded ‎the custody of the three children to the respondent for proper care.

    Akomolede ruled that the petitioner would be paying N2, 500 as feeding allowance on each of the three children, beginning on or before Nov. 30 through the court registry.

    She further ruled that the petitioner would be responsible for the education of the children at all levels.

    However, the court granted the petitioner, unrestricted access to his children between the hours of 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.
