Emeka Ike, the Nigerian actor, has responded to the advice from Yul Edochie, his colleague, over his feud with Suzanne Emma, his ex-wife.
Ike has been in the spotlight since revisiting issues surrounding his divorce from Emma in 2017.
The actor alleged that Emma made him lose his properties worth millions and access to his four kids.
He also denied ever beating his former wife.
On her part, Emma alleged that she endured physical abuse during their marriage and called the actor “a drug addict”.
The situation sparked social media debates with users divided in their support.
Weighing in on the matter in a post on Instagram, Edochie said everyone faces difficulties, even if it is not always apparent on social media.
He urged Ike to persevere and not let challenges define him. He added that the actor’s supporters outweigh his critics.
“You are one of the actors who inspired me to come up. Trust me, the people who love you are more than your haters,” he wrote.
“Nobody house good pass. Forget the romantic pictures you see couples post on social media, if people tell you their own family wahala you go run.
“Everything you ever lost, this is the time to get it back. The name Emeka Ike is crested by God. Never back down. Never stay down. We love you big bro.”
Expressing gratitude, Emeka replied, “Odogwu Nwoke… I appreciate 🙌.”
Ike had been on a 13-year movie hiatus.
He recently made his comeback as a lead character in ‘Malaika’, a movie produced by Toyin Abraham.
