Nollywood veteran actor Pete Edochie has expressed shock at the rate of failed marriages in his industry. Edochie, 76, in a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, said he was surprised to learn that some of his female colleagues have either been separated or divorced from their husbands. During the interview, he also revealed likely reasons behind the increased rates of divorces among Nollywood acts. The father-of-six, who has been married to his wife Josephine for over 50 years, said, “ If you come to our industry today, most of our girls who got married some 23 years ago have all left their husbands, from beginning to end. I am even shocked to hear that Chioma Chukwuka also left her husband, Ireti Doyle, and Tonto Dikeh; they’ve all left their husband.
