“My Wristwatch Collection Is More Than N100M, I Will Not Pay The N5m Ordered By Court”, Daddy Freeze Reacts To Adultery Charge (pics)

Daddy Freeze has reacted to the report that the Court of Appeal, sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, has upheld the fine imposed on him for “committing adultery”.

Reacting after the report was published, the media personality denied ever committing adultery with his wife, Benedicta Elechi, when she was married to her former husband.

“I am innocent. I did not do it,” he wrote on Instagram.

Then, taking a swipe at his wife’s ex-husband, Daddy Freeze shared loved up clips of him and Benedicta and wrote: “#PepperDem @tastebudzng love always wins…

“Abeg make dem ask dat kukute owootori toromogbe wey dey cry up and down for social media for the last 12 years, to tell the world why his ex wife left him.”

Despite the court ruling ordering him to pay a fine of N5m, Daddy Freeze maintained his innocence and insists that the allegations are false.

Speaking on his Instagram live, Daddy Freeze stated: “I’ve never slept with any man’s wife before. I’m not guilty of any adultery.”

He said he would rather send the money to those in need, but will never pay the fine.

Freeze said: “I’ll not pay the 5 million naira adultery fine  but I can send them N5m to feed”

He further emphasised his innocence, stating that the issue happened 12 years ago.

“My watches alone cost over 100 million naira, but I am innocent, and I will not lose. This happened many years ago; this happened over 12 years ago,” he stated partly.

In an exclusive interview in 2018, Benedicta Elechi, who is now married to Daddy Freeze and shares a son with him, denied committing adultery with Freeze while still with her ex-husband Paul Odekina.

She said she filed for a divorce from her ex because of his “sexual perversion.”

She also claimed that during their union (they got married in 2002 and she filed for divorce in 2012) they only made love just eleven times in 10 years, until she caught her husband “red-handed in gay sex with a man in their living room”.

Then, in 2021, Benedicta alleged that she was battered by her ex-husband and shared a medical report dated April 17, 2014, as proof

High Court of Rivers State sitting in Port Harcourt, had earlier on February 18, 2021, ordered Daddy Freeze to pay N5m for committing adultery with one Benedicta Elechi.

Benedicta shared the medical report after a High Court of Rivers State sitting in Port Harcourt, on February 18, 2021, ordered Daddy Freeze to pay N5m for committing adultery with Benedicta Elechi.

He was ordered to pay the money to Paul Odekina, who was married to Elechi at the time the alleged adulterous act was committed.

“The sum of N5,000,000 is awarded against Ifedayo Olarinde (the 2nd Cross Respondent to the Cross Petition) as damages for depriving the Cross Petitioner of the amiable consort of his wife (Petitioner/1st Cross Respondent) and for injury suffered as a result of his adultery with the Petitioner/Cross Respondent,” the court held.

The court also dissolved the marriage contracted between Paul and Benedicta due to her adulterous act with Daddy Freeze.

But, not satisfied with the High Court’s judgement, Daddy Freeze approached the appellate court for redress.

The Appeal Court has now upheld the N5m fine.
