Event Host Shuts Down Joke About Chike Amid Scandal Rumours, Video Trends
Host Bans Chike Name After MC Joke About Frank Edoho Scandal

A dramatic moment unfolded at a recent event when the host quickly stopped any mention of Chike after the Master of Ceremony (MC) tried to bring the singer's name into the programme. The MC had cracked a joke about the ongoing issues between Chike, popular TV host Frank Edoho and his estranged wife, Sandra Onyenucheya, suggesting that the singer was romantically involved with her.

The MC’s attempt at humour was met with laughter from some guests, and comedian MC Edo Pikin added his own twist by saying that malice may last through the night, but Chike would appear in the morning. The joke was clearly aimed at the rumours surrounding Edoho’s strained relationship with his wife and the alleged involvement of Chike.

However, the event host did not allow the matter to continue. He immediately interrupted and firmly declared that Chike’s name should not be mentioned again, stressing that the name was banned from the event. His sharp reaction brought the joke to an abrupt end and shifted the atmosphere in the hall. A video capturing the exchange has since gone viral across social media platforms.
