Nigerian businessman, Steve Thompson Maduka, has taken to social media to address the recent allegations made against him by his estranged wife, Sandra Iheuwa.
Sandra Iheuwa Files Petition Against Steve Maduka
Sandra through her lawyers had accused Steve of threat to life and grievous bodily harm in petitions to the Inspector General of Police and the American Embassy.
The lawyers claim that Steve was involved in an “illicit relationship” shortly after marrying Sandra and he infected her with a sexually transmitted disease while she was pregnant, despite pleas for him to stop the affair for the sake of their unborn baby’s health.
The petition also alleges that Sandra used part of Steve’s office as her delivery office and reached an agreement with him for her to pay part of the rent.
However, after the resolution of the rental issue, Steve threatened to “resort to self help” to throw her out if she doesn’t move out of the property in 7 days, the petition states.
It added that Steve proceeded to send Sandra WhatsApp messages threatening to “use his gun” on her. He also allegedly threatened to follow through on his threats even if she relocates to America.
The lawyers petitioned the US embassy to prevent Steve from procuring the US Immigrant Visa using Sandra’s details, as the estranged wife has left Nigeria “solely for her safety”.

Reacting on his Instagram page, the businessman asked his estranged wife to ”find another man and leave him alone” as he’s no longer interested in the marriage.
Steve wrote: “What exactly do these people want from me, you are pleading to come back to me and I said no, I initiated divorce proceedings and you started lying up and won, what’s all these nonsense for?
“We been separated since 31st December 2021 and I haven’t seen you since then, how will I then kill you? You are still using my office till this moment why not get yours??
“Your dad reported that I said I will shoot you if you don’t leave my home which was a lie, police investigated and found it to be a lie and matter was closed in March, why then send it to Linda in October to post???
“Since March what is this I blocked a your numbers and you think the best way to get my attention is to lie against me?
“My lawyers wrote the UD embassy and matter was resolved on April, I don’t even intend applying for any US immigrant visa as I haven’t tried since 2014.
“Can’t this girl let me rest haaa Jehovah abeg o, US this US that you think they don’t know how a bitter EX you are? Leave me alone biko as our divorce proceedings is still in court, find another man and leave me alone”.
