Many know Pere was initially married to a lady in the United Stated of America. He was accused of using his wife to gain a green card in the US. Many allegations soon followed including domestic violence as to the reason why his marriage ended. However, these were just mere speculations. Now, Pere sits down with Phyna to finally disclose the true reason behind his divorce.
It is not unsurprising the allegations Pere faced. Pere has shown a history of violence in the BBNaija All Stars house. He got a strike for punching a hole in the wall after a verbal altercation with Doyin in which he threatened her.
After a Saturday party, he toppled Alex over by flipping the mattress while she was still on it. Additionally, while on BBNaija Shine Y’a Eye, he was accused of bullying Whitemoney by threatening him with his intimidating demeanor.
Pere earned the title ‘The General’, due to his high intolerance for disrespect and disorder. However, the irony was he was also accused of being disrespectful to fellow housemates.
Although we saw his bad side, he also showed us his good side. In BBNaija Shine Y’a Eye, he was romantically linked to Maria. He showed us his romantic side and ability to remain loyal to one woman. Despite the romance, he was also accused of hypergamy.
Hypergamy is the act of forming a relationship with a person of a superior sociological background. It is the fancy word for gold digging.
Many felt Pere was exploring Maria for financial gain such as a visa or perhaps money. The god digging allegations didn’t end.
Once Pere started dating Mercy Eke, the accusations resurfaced.
Pere’s romantic relationships have always been viewed with an air of suspicion. Therefore, it is no surprise that he would be accused of horrid reasons for his marriage coming to an end.
Pere revealed to Phyna that he was married at age 25. He revealed he was quite young.
“At the time I was working on my music while she was doing her Masters”, he recalled.
When Phyna asked why the marriage ended, he revealed his ex-wife had asked for a divorce after accusing him of cheating.
According to Pere, his friend had borrowed his car to pick up his girlfriend. They accidentally left the girl’s belonging in his car which his ex-wife found. She confronted him about it and he assumed it was hers initially. She accused him of cheating and despite his innocence, she didn’t yield. She asked for a divorce. His friend later called him saying his girlfriend left something in the car but his ex-wife was not budging. She wanted out of the marriage. He obliged and that was the end of it.
The story seemed so unreal that Phyna questioned him. To her, a woman let alone a Nigerian woman will not just jump to conclusions except he had been unfaithful in the past.
Pere remained resolute to his story, claiming that she was born and raised in America. “They think differently”, he explained.
Do you believe Pere? Is that what really happened or is he hiding a dark past?
