Comedian and actor Buchi Ojieh has called out his in-laws over the drama ensuing from their children’s custody.
The comedian on his Instagram shared posts to warn the parents of his estranged wife, Rukky.
In a series of posts, he said the parents had denied him access to his children unless he pay some money which he did but was still not granted what he wanted.
He said his in-laws are pastors at the Redeemed Christian Church of God. He pleaded with the public to assist him in calling the church in the US to help him with the situation.
In one post, he wrote, “Mr n Mrs Salami… you people have my kids.. ur plan worked.. Am not fighting you.. U are leaders at The Redeemed Christian church there, I know for sure that RCCG Nigeria will not allow such…
“U need to tell me why I can’t speak to my kids.. pls if u are in the US help me call the church .. The pastor know the matter! Leaders should lead by example.. #enoughisenough @james_fadel Pastor @james_fadel Pls look into this matter!!”
In another post, the father of two wrote, “Mr n Mrs SALAMI.. wake up!! U people asked me to pay to have access but it’s ‘child welfare’.. that anything I have I should pay first.. I paid the money.. una say e no reach more access is more money abi?
“2ice communication a week is now 1 video call then vn abi? u can only call with ur fone.. u block me after every call until I don beg abi? okay make una take i can’t meet ur offer.. I work in Naira .. if it’s hard for you return my kids please!! gather ur evidence I have mine pls @james_fadel @febidahosa do u have friends in RCCG?pls Look into this matter becus it’s going to be a movement very soon..#daddydaughter.” (sic)
Buchi and Rukky tied the knot in 2017 and are blessed with two children. There were rumours their marriage hit the rocks last year.
