Nollywood actress Chika Ike has shared the first photos of her newborn baby girl, delighting fans and fellow celebrities.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday, the actress posted heartwarming pictures of herself cradling her daughter. She expressed her joy, writing, “My baby is here… Welcome to the world, my sunshine.”
The post quickly attracted congratulatory messages from Nollywood stars and fans. Actress Ini Edo commented, “Awwwwwww, congratulations sis.”
Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim also wrote, “Congratulations, Sis! Welcome to the world, baby girl.”
Fellow actress Ruby Ojiakor added, “Biggest congratulations, momma.”
The excitement surrounding Chika Ike’s baby announcement comes after weeks of speculation linking Senator Ned Nwoko to her pregnancy.
Addressing the rumors in an earlier post, Chika Ike dismissed the claims as baseless. “There have been all sorts of lies peddled about me in the media for years, but I always treated them like what they are—rumors that needed no response. But this is different; this is about my child,” she wrote.
She made it clear that Senator Nwoko was not the father of her child, stating, “Ned isn’t the father of my child, and whoever’s name you might come up with later in your guessing games… I’m not about to be anyone’s seventh wife! Polygamy isn’t for me.”
Chika Ike revealed that she kept her pregnancy private for months, choosing to share the news at her own time. “I’ve been pregnant for months now, and no one even had a clue until I announced it. And you all think you’ll know who the father of my child is or anything happening in my life? Very laughable and clueless!” she added.
