He is Churchill\u2019s uncle and by extension, my uncle as well. My son was born in his home, under his care and protection. His wife, Aunty Vivian, was the one who took me to the hospital when I went into labor.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThey opened their home to me for six months. In a country as demanding as America, they made sure my baby and I were cared for feeding us, clothing us, and giving us a safe roof over our heads. They did this out of love, with no hesitation.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThis narrative is deeply disrespectful to him, to me, and to our families. I would appreciate more thoughtfulness and sensitivity moving forward please.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nollywood actress cum politician, Tonto Dikeh, has expressed displeasure over a video in which some netizens accused her of inappropriately hugging her ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill.
