you know they are very wicked animals.

They will not be appeased until they finish you up.

My friend took a lady from the village to USA and trained her.

There was a problem and my guy was to pay a monthly alimony
to her, which he could not afford.

Alimony accumulated to 12000$ which he could not pay and his mother died.

This woman went to immigration to report my friend that he was escaping to Nigeria so as not to pay the money
and they seized his passport denying him the chance to bury his mother.

We pleaded and begged this woman to allow our friend to come home and bury his mother; she flatly refused.

We did the burial on behalf of our friend and few months later the woman died and my friend got his passport back.

Corpses do not collect alimony and in this case a dead man does not pay support,
You are wrong child support can only be terminated by adoption or when the child is 18. Death doesn't stop it. As he is dead now, her lawyers will file to retrieve the amount from the estate the man left behind, any property left will be sold to offset that bill till it is exhausted. He is a medical and likely has a life insurance package that can be seized too. Death doesn't clear debts.

Now that the young man is dead, will the wife not still take care of that medically challenged child and the others?

The husband is a medical doctor who's well aware of what it costs to take care of his children monthly. Would he have gone berserk if he felt the $15,000 was justified?
Him taken his life says a lot about what coward he is. First of all, whatever amount that was asked to pay was base of of what he makes and what he can comfortably pay.
Whats the big deal paying for someone to take care of your own kids? He can arrange to see the kids as often as he wants, unless he is a threat to them.
Besides, he now has the freedom of working his ass off, making crazy money. without coming home to kids noise everyday and wife nagging.
He can also keep changing them woman, like every week, these beautiful US women everywhere. Lol.
If he doesn't have a mental illness, then he must be very very stupid.
He was a medical doctor, so he was living good.

A lot of bs

The guy did not lose any license

Apparently he was paying $1900 per month and according to the dad defaulting

He has been separated from the wife since 2022 domestic violence matter

He was a cardiologist and they can pull 500k a year

His wife was not doing bad either - she is a physician assistant and can pull 120k a year

What happened is pauperised red piller Nigerian males and maybe the doctors friends and family made up a story your would expect and ran with it.

Hungry broke gold digger trophy wife brought from Nigeria

Meanwhile the lady was born and bred in Yankee and had athletic scholarships

The funniest thing is boys cursing out the girls father who is all things considered a polygamous hero. An American Ned Nwoko.

And a man who has his daughters back. Somehow they did not expect that

All of a sudden knacking plenty women is a problem

The dad alleges the doctor came to the wife's place with a gun, held them hostage for 3 hours and then killed himself. Not sure if that is true

In the end everyone has lost

The dude was 36 years old and a successful doctor. He had serious disposable income, was handsome so I can't understand
So maybe the anger management and controlling issues track.

As mymum and dad were medical,my dad has a sister who was also medical with her husband and they moved fully to the US in the 90s. All the kids are successful doctors. My sis was telling me how the first born has a g wagon and his baby mama dey also deal with him. You have money so you roll with it till the pikin is 18. Then you decide what to do

Plenty of threads on reddit where people discuss issues like this like civilised human beings.

The $15000 is likely exaggerated - Diddy was paying $21000 as child support. Yes the doctor is doing well but the court will look at his income the circumstances etc. And he also has lawyers of his own
Thank you.


The full amount is actually about $1.5k, not even $15k.

He sounds mentally ill, but agenda must agend ofcourse.

I don't have all the details but 15k per month child support while it looks quite high but for a practising doctor in US or Canada, it shouldn't be that crazy that you should kill yourself. The Judge must have seen he makes possibly 35k to 40k monthly before imposing that amount. He could have also appealed. I believe there's more to this. Again, I don't have all the facts.

He wasn't a coward, he just wasn't built for that kind of challenge. You may not know this, but taking your own life can sometimes be a whole new kind of courage.

I don't believe this 15k a month of a thing. Even some celebrities don't pay up to that. Are you sure this was not accumulated.

Lots of diverging tales about this man.

May his soul find peace.

Sometimes,, it's good to swallow our pride and be the good person, go for separation and then see if things will work out.
Also therapy helps. Some bad habits need to be changed.
When you are married, you are married.
Also if you are not married but living as partners, you don't live like a bachelor or spinster anymore

All humans are built to adapt to situations, but you have to have the courage to endure, and be patient, which he didn't have, that made him a coward, he didn't want to endure and go through the temporary pain.
I don't always blame people for taken their life, but, him being a medical doctor in the US who makes over $200k a year, and his kids are alive not that they are dead. I mean he had no reason to take his own life if not that he was a coward and didn't want to face the consequences of his actions.
I understand depression, but it has treatment, get on anti-depressant medicine or seek a therapy, which he can afford easy.
Suicide is cowardice, although in his own case, he was just stupid. People take their life because they have had enough and think the future will be worse and wouldn't want to risk it.
Dude, again, there is no reason to take your life when you are in the US as a medical doctor.

Do you even know what $15,000 is? $15,000? Monthly? Well, like the man said, the court considers both parties' incomes before deciding.

Child support can be settled if both parents don't have bad blood against each other. Seen it few times, where school fees, house rent are paid by the man and the woman take care of feeding and clothing.
Re: Late Dr. Ikenna’s Father-In-Law Reveals Reason For $15,000 Child Support by Acidosis(m):
It’s shocking to see people believe that the doctor took his own life over $15k. Suicidal incidents like this are never solely about money. It’s deeper than that. Not many can handle rejection or the feeling of being cheated.

Paying a lump monthly sum to a woman after a divorce and now has custody of the kids, whom you probably won’t see for weeks or months, can’t make critical decisions for, and who could easily be manipulated against you is definitely a suicide mission.

Worse still, the father-in-law’s response tells me all I need to know about the influence of in-laws in his marriage. You see people who always warn intending couples against marrying into a bad family? Please LISTEN to them. You will see some inlaw wahala and death, and something within you will prefer the latter. Listen or learn the hard way. This advice is solely for anti-toxic people who were well brought up in small, firm, solid traditional nuclear family.

Merely having your children taken away from you against your will can mentally damaged a responsible father/mother. Let's spare the blame games. Something already died in him a long time ago.

He chose suicide at that point because it definitely seemed like a better option compared to what he was feeling and the situation he was in.

Go rest abeg.
Her dad is the same Hugh Hefner Obalende version who constantly ridicules women as gold diggers. He openly talks about all the women he had run through .. all had materialistic and extortionist intentions.

He posted names of all the women he had allegedly slept with… without their consent. He doubled down by posting some of their pics. He drags his ex wives on social media.

All those women he had publicly humiliated was because he felt he was rich and got his connect with Naija bloggers. There was no humanity in him to see those girls as people’s daughters. Now people are talking about his daughter and her marital issues.. He’s now saint Jesus. He’s a toxic person who destroyed his girlfriends’ lives for FUN.. smh

Which is why I find it so funny that so many boys who celebrate Tuface idibia, who celebrate Ned nwoko who celebrate Davido suddenly see an older man doing the same things all of these guys have done as irresponsible

Are men no longer polygamous in nature?

Or are you saying that the daughters of Tuface, Davido and Co will grow to become women who will mess their husbands up because they had womanizing fathers?

I am very sure if I go to any thread discussing van-lare I will see people like you hailing him as a red pilled alpha male high value man who puts gold digging women in their place.

The irony of all this - the man clearly has a great relationship with his daughter. You can see it in all his pictures with her.

The man also avoided saying anything negative about the late ikenna until the mob came for his daughter with their ridiculous made up stories.

If he was cussing out his daughter he would be your hero.

Hopefully I will see you with this moral energy the next time we read about Davido and an internet thot.

Nigerians are too gullible for my liking. Bloggers need to be sued so as not to spread lies. Very people in the US pays $15,000 a month in child support unless the person is a millionaire. Doctors rarely make that type of money. Many cardiologists barely top out at $400,000. The actually child support was $1,900 monthly. It is a fair amount due to his salary and the child's disabilities. The man was having trouble on his job, his parents refused to accept the lady for marriage and the custody hearing pushed him over the edge. He held the woman, child at nanny hostage. Thankfully the nanny escaped to call the police. Once he knew the police were approaching, he took his own life. Depression is real. cry

he just was feeling he was at the loosing end of it all. After spending a lot to over come the judgement against his favor. It indeed costs a lot taking care of a physically challenged. Their schools alone are expensive home and away than those of the normal kids. He just didn’t do well for himself. Chickened from responsibilities.

You’re the unexposed one here. Tuface, Davido and co .. have never posted pics and names online of women they have slept with. He posted them without their consent.if he did that in the US, he would have been in jail or gone broke from catching multiple lawsuits.


A PA with 2 kids cannot take care of her kids with $1.9k child support. Knock it off. She’s got a special need child, so she has to work fewer hours to take care of the child.
Their child with special needs is gonnna need more than $1.9k/mo. No sane judje would ask a doctor making $30-$50k/mon to pay $1900/m for 2 babies. $1900 is what regular working class people pay.. not a cardiologist. Stop displaying your mumuism on HD

Stop it. No judge will ask a doctor to pay $1900/m for 2kids. One his kids is a special need. Nanny alone would cost $3k/mon. Mortage is $4k-$5k. Daycare is $2k. Health insurance is another $2k+ feeding, clothing and entertainment. The minimal operating cost of taking those 2 kids is around $150k. And the woman keeps the kids most times .. and the judge allows the man to only pay $1.9k/mon. You must have believed that Christopher Columbus discovered America

That was cold from the father-in-law.


It wouldn't take long before they would start complaining themselves. It is easy to judge a man for complaining about too much financial responsibilities. You will only understand when you take up that same responsibilities too.


When my brother and his wife split, the wife's family first denied him access to the children for a while, but when the financial burden became unbearable, they reestablished contact with him and started asking him to contribute towards the upkeep of his children.
