Although Tonto Dikeh’s estranged husband and father of her son; Olakunle Churchill revealed how their marriage crisis started.
“The main thing that started this fight was between she and my mum and it was very dirty. I bought a house for my mum in Lekki and she came over from overseas so we can do a house warming party to launch it and just 24-hours before the house warming party, Tonto got angry over a very flimsy issue and she just started breaking stuffs and scattering the house and in the process while my mum was trying to calm her down, she pushed my mum down as well.”
“I had never seen that in my life, I had to prostrate for my mum to apologize and that was how the house warning party was cancelled because it was just 24-hours to the party and Tonto had destroyed the house, breaking and damaging things… I was shocked”
Tonto was said to be furious that Churchill paid more attention to his mum than herself. Sources informed National WAVES that Tonto was unhappy that her estranged husband bought his mum a house without first informing her.
