Omokri also praised her for being a woman who “does not know how to quarrel and incapable of malice”.

“I want to praise my wife. I thought spoiling was over for me, then I married my wife and got another mother, a pure met-at-home lover,” he said.

“A woman who does not know how to quarrel. A being of pure joy that radiates unconditional love. Totally devoid of materialism. The only thing she puts before her husband is her God. Every other person, she has queued behind me.”

Reacting to Omokri’s remarks in an Instagram post on Sunday, Tuokpe alleged that she “tolerated physical abuse” in their marriage.

She also accused him of assault that left her with “swollen jaw, ruptured eardrums and weeks of pain”.

“No woman should ever tolerate abuse in a marriage, regardless of how infrequent it might be,” she wrote.

“We often make excuses like wanting to maintain a complete family or staying for the sake of the children. But the truth is, your children deserve better.

“After the first instance of violence, which left me with a swollen jaw and weeks of pain, I made excuses, thinking I must have provoked the anger. I even had to endure seeing my daughter witness another slap.

“And there was the morning I woke up to find blood on my pillow from a ruptured eardrum you caused. The final straw was when you assaulted me again, leading me to involve the police.

“Now you claim to be happily married to a woman who doesn’t “quarrel”. Good luck to her, because you always wanted someone you could control and intimidate.”

In 2021, Omokri and his second wife welcomed a baby girl named Ebele.

Omokri has yet to react to Tuokpe’s allegation as of the time of this report.
