Popular Nigerian comedian, Buchi has shed light on how his wife was recently arrested for assault and vandalism.
The prolific comedian in an exclusive phone interview chat with Punch cleared the air after his wife was arrested by members of the Nigeria Police in a viral video.
According to reports, Buchi’s wife, Rukky Isede harassed an estate security personnel and vandalised items which the estate said was worth N700,000, as a result,the estate management cut their power supply till the fine was paid but the couple allegely reconnected the light.
A meeting was later called to resolve the issue but didn’t end well. This made Buchi leave the house but his wife took some thugs to harass the chairman of the estate.
The Police was invited and she was arrested.
Reacting to the allegation, Buchi said;
“I would not want to go into it but I will just want to say that all the allegations are lies. We had an altercation with the estate because one of the security men beat up my niece. My younger brother fought the guy and they fined us. I disagreed because we needed to go into the reason for the altercation; the security people harassed a tenant. They should not fine me because my younger brother defended my niece as I was not around when it happened. They fined us and I said that is not right.
“I initiated legal action and I informed the estate that I will take the matter to court. They said that since I was taking the estate to court, they will not provide power. I am not around and I had already told my wife not to make any trouble with them. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic courts are not sitting so we cannot institute any action. I have a ten-year-old daughter and the heat was getting unbearable for her so my wife went to demand that they should give restore the power, that was part of the video online, this led her to go to the estate association president’s house.
