Comedian Buchi accuses estranged wife’s family of abducting his kids

Buchi Ojieh, the Nigerian comedian, has accused the family of Rukky, his estranged wife, of abducting his kids.

Buchi took to his Instagram page on Wednesday to call out Rukky’s family members, claiming they have refused him access to his kids.

The 44-year-old standup comedian, however, told his in-laws they “can only stop me from talking to my kids, but cannot stop the law” — implying he had taken legal action.

Buchi also wondered how his in-laws would feel if someone took away their “kids from them after all they went through to have them”.

“U have ur kids allow me access to my kids. Family when they repay good with wickedness I never stopped u from talking to your father,” he wrote in a series of posts alongside a photo of his in-laws.

“U facilitated the abduction of my kids – Isede and Salamis. You can stop me from talking to them. You can’t stop the law.

“Mr n Mrs Salami. If someone took Jos & Daniella after all u went thru. Una go survive am. I want access to my kids.”

The comedian and Rukky tied the knot in 2017 and the union is blessed with two children.

There were however rumours that their marriage hit the rock last year over alleged violence.
