Olakunle Churchill said that he was not raised to cause harm, and it was actually Tonto Dikeh who often attacked him, sometimes even with weapons and knives. Tonto’s ex-husband said that she is definitely not a woman who could let you get away with hitting her. In the end, he added that everyone warned him not to get involved with Tonto, but he still gave her a chance.
