Elikem cited several reasons to the court as to why he is seeking the divorce. One major issue raised by Elikem is that his wife Pokello gets jealous whenever he plays romantic roles in movies as an actor and a such she is harming his professional career despite the fact that Pokello is also an actress.
The 29-year-old Elikem Kumordzi also stated in his petition that he has lost love and affection for his 32-year-old wife, Pokello and the marriage entirely and it’s beyond repairable. There is no hope for reconciliation.

After Elikem got married to Pokello in Zimbabwe, he boldly confirmed that he has paid a huge money to marry Pokello and he knows he has made the right choice because only a silly person will waste such money if he is not sure she is the right person.
Speaking to Peace FM, Elikem said:
“I paid a lot of money and before you pay such money for a lady’s hand in marriage you have to be sure she’s the one. Otherwise, you will be a silly young man throwing a lot of money away. So it feels good to be married to the right woman. It feels amazing. No mistakes or regrets whatsoever”.
