Tchidi Chikere reveals why marriage to Nuella Njubigbo ended

Nollywood director Tchidi Chikere

Filmmaker Tchidi Chikere has revealed why his marriage to actress Nuella Njubigbo ended.

The Pretty Liars director disclosed this in an Instagram post on Thursday while drumming support for actor Yul Edochie who has come under fire for marrying a second wife.

According to Tchidi, the marriage ended because Nuella took her things and sneaked out of their matrimonial home.

The filmmaker said this after a critic slammed him for supporting Yul Eodchie.

“See madness na…he is still better than you, at least he has stayed with one woman for 17 years…You cant even keep one woman for 2weeks! Retard,” the critic Itohowo Eden wrote.

Angered by the post, Tchidi replied, “My first marriage lasted 11 years, my second lasted 7 years until she took her things and sneaked out of the house. The problem with some of you women is you think you run the world because men don’t talk. Maybe one day I’ll tell my story if I feel I really need the love of one-track-minded people like you. Now get off my page or shut up.”

Tchidi and Nuella sparked divorce rumour in 2021 after they unfollowed each other on Instagram.

The actress also removed her husband’s name from her Instagram profile.

Nuella and Tchidi got married in a traditional wedding held in her family compound in Anambra State on March 29, 2014. They have a daughter together.

Tchidi has three other children from his previous marriage to another actress Sophia Williams.
