‘You cheated when I was pregnant’ — Sandra, Frank Edoho’s ex-wife breaks silence

Sandra Onyenucheya, the former wife of veteran broadcaster Frank Edoho, has publicly accused him of infidelity, emotional abuse and financial irresponsibility following revelations about the breakdown of their marriage.

 

Sandra made the allegations in a series of posts shared on her Instagram Stories, where she detailed what she described as years of emotional trauma and betrayal during the marriage.

 

“Choosing to remain silent may give mixed signals to the narrative that a sadist and narcissist peddles, making everyone believe he is a victim,” she wrote.

 

She alleged that Edoho cheated on her while she was pregnant with their first child, claiming the affair lasted for years.

 

“Until you decided that while I am pregnant with our first child, you would rather have a prolonged affair that lasted years with an actress,” she stated.

 

“The nights crying on the floor begging that you see me, with you walking out and not returning for days!”

 

Sandra further alleged that the television personality pressured her to terminate her second pregnancy.

 

“Or the days you tormented me to abort our 2nd child because you were in numerous relationships and not ready to be a father?!” she wrote.

 

She also accused Edoho of neglect and abuse, claiming she remained committed to the marriage despite what she described as emotional, mental and physical torture.

 

In another post, Sandra described her ex-husband as “a dead beat,” alleging that she financially sustained the family throughout the marriage.

 

“I single handedly sponsored your lavish lifestyle. I single handedly paid all your bills, the trips, business class tickets, 5-star hotels, luxury trips, all the home bills including that of the other children from your previously failed marriage,” she alleged.

 

Sandra also accused Edoho of mismanaging her finances and selling one of her properties without permission.

 

“Sold my property without my permission for chicken change and still squandered the earnings from it within one week!” she claimed.

 

The allegations surfaced shortly after Edoho confirmed publicly that the couple had been privately separated for nearly two years and were undergoing divorce proceedings.

 

“Over the past few days, I’ve received an outpouring of kind messages, prayers, concern, and goodwill regarding my separation and ongoing divorce proceedings,” Edoho wrote earlier.

 

“While I understand that the public is only just becoming aware of this chapter, I have lived through it privately for quite some time now (almost two years) and have since made peace with it emotionally.”

 

As of the time of filing this report, Edoho has not issued any public response to the allegations made by his ex-wife.
