9ice and Toni looking into the future at their traditional engagement
Multiple sources have confirmed to NET, exclusively, that singer 9ice and his wife Toni Payne, who got married on Thursday July 17, 2008, are breaking up.
Very reliable sources revealed to us, this afternoon that the couple have agreed ‘to separate for a while’, following ‘irreconcillable differences’.
9ice and Toni are one of our few favourite showbiz couples – the whole industry celebrated their romance and eventual marriage- and it’s a heartbreaking news for the entertainment industry in Nigeria.

The couple exchanging wedding rings at the Surulere registry in Lagos in 2008

Rlly iam sad cos I 4 one like nice cos he’s rlly nice
I wish they will settle watever d problem is atleast 4 d sake of their son!
OMG! It’s so sad to see my Nigerian pple copying d white. Pls let’s try n make our marriages work 4 d sake of pple like us hoping 2 get marrid very soon.
This is clearly an import of the western culture! when did we start having irreconciliable differences leading to marriage breakdown. Please ask your mothers and father..

As a head of a family try as much as u could to make thing work btw u and ur wife

Its sweet to get married.bt d major wahala is staying married.shit hapens.and now dz shit is smelling badly..its so sad.
Ola must b xcited over dis, she had always been competing with him as 9ice’s manager….she was never a gd dress which didn’t help d musician’s bad dress sense. Wande Coal is ok & not in any stupid home.
This is quite disheartning.I was really happy 4 9ice wen i heard he was getting married in 2008.God regards divorce as an act of violence besides do we av anytin like irreconciliable wen we av God?U guyz shld tink abt it nd settle ur differences afterall there is no sweet marriage without its ups nd down.Let God take His place plsss!
i hope they work out der differences cz some of us actually believe in ‘4 beta,4 worse’. Nways,wt eva happens,nice,i gt ur bak
then nice wud av bin a star like his predecessors.it’s up 2 him 2 make his marriage work.smtimes,we just av 2 work out from sm relationships but marriage was exepmted from the clause.tell nice 2 walk away from the mistake
Yeah
I bet ola is happy
Some of these comments re funny,these re pple that need our prayers and somone is saying he or she never liked the chick. Mcshewww
U for marry nice na. Anyway. The most important thing is that they find happiness
Na wa oh,9ice try nd do sumfin bout ur marriage so u nd ur wife dnt end up seperating b4 all d single gals starts knockin @ ur door oh,u no wat I mean
Dis is 2 common amng celebrities,y dnt u let urs b different? Its unbelievable dt dis is happening wen their kid is stil yung,dey shld pls reconcile their differences 4 d sake of their kid. I pray God lead them aright. 9ice n payne i LOVE UR union. Its wel.
I dont know whats wrong with people. despite being a celebrity he is just like every one of us. he just got him self a job that brings him a lot of attention who knows which one of you is going to get separated tomorrow at list he had the courage to get married you better check your back yard and let 9ice enjoy his life. For guys that are here you better pray your own last a year and for the girls am very sorry for you i pray some one buy you a ring one day.
Let 9ice be.
Oga 9ice do your life the way you think is good for you. its not my problem.
This is too bad,a marriage which is not up to 2 years has been seperated.But for 9ice he really fuck up.
This is just wacked. I mean what were they thinking before they got married?
dis is bad news …………………..not another Nigerian couple
its soo sad…i dnt even no wot to say..it wasnt a rush,was it?
I STILL FIND IT HARD TO BELIEF………….WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT???? IT MUST BE A RUMOUR.

YOU CAN’T CHANGE THE PAST,

BY WORRYING ABOUT THE FUTURE.

mr________________do be a man
what is wrong with both of you? Had it been I can see you both I will flog you. Do you think marriage is for boys and girls? No, marriage is for matured mind or is it the fame and fortune that is getting into your heads? You better wake up. Nice there is no other woman outside there that is for you than toni ur wife because she is ur better half “wakati wakati loma npe mi” have you forgotten that why so soon, dont allow the devil to have his way in your family, remember your son they said where two elephant fight the grasses always bear the consequence think of this boys future I am begging you for God’s sake and you Iyawo you better know what you are doing. If you think you will live your matrimonial home and go else where it is a lie. It is now that you are under a man that people respect you just make a mistake and leave ur husband and you will see how people will begin to mock you and dont you forget that you are the builder of ur home the way you lay your bed that is how you will sleep on it DONT YOU EVER OPT OUT OF THAT MARRIAGE.GIVE WHAT IT TAKES TO SAVE UR HOME.DONT FORGET THE POWER OF PRAYER IT WORKS ALOT.
somebody shd go and tell 9ice to drop dat idea cos is not too late to make tins up wit her. he is too nice a guy 4 a like dis.bobo 9ice don’t disappoint us ooooooooooo. take to God.
A marriage counsellor asked the couples to be; this question “what offence do you think your wife/husband will commit and you will find it difficult to forgive her, and many people raised up their hands and said if their wife/husband cheats on them they will not forgive him/her, and the man said that it is perdonable. And he now gave an instance of a house wife that went to next street to steal a cube of maggie and she was beating blue-black and was also naked and everybody saw her including his husband friends and family. It’s such a shameful thing.ALL THE SAME LEARN TO FORGIVE AND FORGET
Pls 9nice 4 the sake of your fabulous fans; whom are lookin’ forward to see the best in your marriage, pls try and settle things together no matter whatever the problem might be ok! Good luck. From Iyke a.k.a. Apachino. FUT-YOLA.
well,i dont think they understand hat marriage is all about at the first place.God is against it!i pray they dont have themselves to be blame at the end.
