Popular broadcaster and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire host, Frank Edoho, has officially broken his silence regarding the explosive allegations of domestic violence and infidelity leveled against him by his estranged wife, Sandra Onyenucheya.
Denying the claims in their entirety, the media personality revealed that he has handed the entire situation over to his legal team, noting that the ongoing conflict is already a matter before the courts.
The public feud reached an absolute boiling point after a series of leaked audio recordings went viral online, in which Edoho appeared to confront Afro-pop singer Chike over an alleged romantic affair with Sandra. While Edoho clarified that he and his estranged wife had already been separated for two years and were undergoing a divorce, the viral audio clips instantly sparked a relentless wave of social media speculation, with bloggers labeling Sandra as unfaithful.
“Surviving Frank Edoho”: The Counter-Allegations
Refusing to accept the public labels, Sandra, the CEO of Vivabella Designs, took to her Instagram account to share a multi-part expose titled “Surviving Frank Edoho.”
Defending her integrity, she insisted she remained completely faithful throughout their marriage, noting that her relationship with Chike was strictly business-oriented and developed long after her split from the broadcaster. To counter the narrative, she released a barrage of screenshots, videos, and financial receipts, accusing Edoho of:
- Severe Domestic Abuse: Alleging that the TV host routinely beat her, including a terrifying incident where he allegedly threatened her life and brandished a dumbbell, vowing to destroy her face so no other man would find her attractive.
- Chronic Infidelity: Claiming she caught him soliciting hookup services and extramarital flings with multiple women, even bringing them into their matrimonial bed.
- Financial Exploitation: Asserting that she single-handedly financed his lavish lifestyle, business-class flights, and property sales while standing up to internet blackmailers who had catfished him with nudes.
The Legal Rebuttal
Reacting to the intense digital fallout and the heavy allegations of financial dependency, a defiant Edoho laughed off the claims, questioning how he could be financially dependent on someone he walked away from two years prior.
“Indeed. And I left her two years ago and she is still sponsoring. Don’t worry, let people have that perspective… I remain focused on my work and will not be engaging further on this matter. My legal team has been informed accordingly and will take action in due course.”

With the singer Chike choosing to entirely disable his comment sections to steer clear of the marital crossfire, the public dispute has officially transitioned from the court of public opinion to a legal battlefield. As both legal teams prepare their cases, Nigerian social media remains heavily divided over the messy unravelling of the high-profile marriage.
