Julius Agwu walks out of 14-year-old marriage

Stand-up comedian Julius Agwu has broken up with his wife, Ibiere.

Newsmen gathered that the humour merchant walked out of his marriage, contrary to a widespread rumour that Ibiere packed her bags and left her matrimonial home, having been overwhelmed by Julius’ illness.

Before then, sources claimed, Ibiere was very loyal to her husband and she continued to fulfill her marital obligations even as the comedian’s travail started in 2015.

Julius gave up on his marriage and stopped fulfilling his marital obligations. He also moved out of his matrimonial home, leaving his wife and children. The reason for his action is still unknown and all efforts to get him to rescind his decision has proved abortive.

Julius, who recently made a public appearance at an event, did so without his wife accompanying him. This aroused suspicion among some of the guests at the event, who hoped that all was well with the couple.

Also, when Ibiere clocked 40 on March 30, he didn’t acknowledge it, let alone send her birthday wishes, despite goodwill messages from their mutual friends and members of their family. Julius ignored her. After he moved out of his matrimonial home, Ibiere also decided to move on. She packed her things and relocated abroad with her children. She also reverted to her maiden name, Maclayton. All attempts to speak with the comedian about this development proved abortive as he didn’t respond to a text message and calls to him as of the time of filing this report.

Newsmen recall that the couple got married in Port Harcourt, Rivers State on May 31, 2008. Their union was blessed with two children, Zahra and Zadok before it packed up.
