Following the decision of his estranged fiancee to publicly call off their wedding expected to hold on Saturday, 16 April 2022 on the grounds of ‘domestic violence’, David Okike, the supposed husband-to be of the aggrieved lady, Helen Ozioma, has taken to his Facebook page on Friday to clarify the state of their relationship.
Okike vehemently denied resorting to physical assault to settle scores with Ozioma whom he claimed has different names which she uses when it pleases her to achieve a purpose.

“Let me first clarify that we have dated for over 8 years and she bears Ada Uburu with her official name, Michael Helen Ozioma, and another identity – Sandra Obi, which she uses to suit her purpose of identification at a particular time.
“Within these years, I have never on any occasion, irrespective of the level of provocation, raised my hand on her and this is because I respect and adore her.”
Okike further denied threatening to stab her with a knife, cutlass or hammer as claimed.
“Accepted that there is no perfect relationship, I can’t deny the fact that we sometimes disagree but it never led to assault as she alleged.
“I make the above statements knowing that we were not leaving alone but surrounded by relatives which can as well serve as witnesses to how we lived while we were together in my house.”
Okike said he is still in touch with Helen’s mother always adding that ‘’this goes to prove that she is on her own and doesn’t enjoy her family’s support in the destructive line she has towed.”
Helen Ozioma made the declaration in the aftermath of the demise of gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu who was a victim of domestic abuse from her husband which has generated widespread condemnation from Nigerians.
