Few days after it was widely reported that Ibiere, the wife of comedian Julius Agwu, abandoned her matrimonial home after 14 years of marriage, her friends gifted her a box filled with money.
Ibiere who has since reversed to her maiden name ( Ibiere Maclayton) on Instagram marked her 40th birthday recently and her friends made her tear up with their surprise gift.
The gifting held at a small get-together tagged Celebrating IB@40.
Recall that Julius Agwu and Ibiere have been going through trying times for some years on account of Agwu’s ill health.
In 2015, the comedian, singer and writer was diagnosed with a brain tumour, when three tumours were found in his brain.
Though it is not clear what led to the breakdown of the marriage, there have been several speculations bandied about, with some saying the couple was going through financial crisis occasioned by Agwu’ ill health.
Meanwhile, many had applauded Ibiere in the past for standing by Agwu at the height of his sickness and caring for him.
