‘I never said my ex-wife married me for money’ – Julius Agwu

Veteran comedian and actor Julius Agwu has denied saying his estranged wife, Ibiere Maclayton, married him because of money.

Recall that a section of the media reported he had hinted in a recent interview that his ex-wife “may have married him primarily for his financial status at the time.”

However, in an Instagram live session with media personality Daddy Freeze, Julius Agwu denied the statement.

Daddy Freeze: “They said you said your wife, IB, married you because of money. Please, address that.”

Julius Agwu: “I was interviewed by The Punch. I never said anything like that. I saw that thing recently, Segun Arinze sent it to me.

“I can never debase myself like that. My former wife never married me for any money. And Julius Agwu never said that. She is the mother of my children. I can never say something like that about her.”
