Reality star, Ike Onyema has continued to rage at Mercy Eke and Pretty Mike after they made jest of him on a podcast.
Recall that Ike’s colleague, Mercy Eke had denied dating him but had admitted that she was once in a relationship with someone who she took care of.

Although the didn’t reveal the name, those on the podcast – Pretty Mike and Nedu Wazobiam – had quickly insinuated that she’s probably referring to Ike.

This didn’t sit well with Ike who came out online to call out those on the podcast warning them to keep his name out of their mouths.
In a new post, Ike has marveled at how friends who you think you know so well can sit back and talk the worse about you.

He dared them to come out openly and respond to him so he can start spilling secrets about them.

I was scared to go far because I was kind of pushing it like too 60% and she pushed the 40 back and at the same time she was still playing other guys even in front of me, especially Cross, it felt so romantic that I decided to take my 60 back.
If not for that I would have given her 80 and waited for 20,” he said.
