After a 13-year hiatus, Nollywood actor Emeka Ike finally returns to the movie industry with a role in Toyin Abraham's movie Malaika. Emeka Ike's career was put to a halt following the controversies surrounding his failed marriage with ex-wife Suzanne Emma.

She stated, "I said 'uncle don't worry, even if you did it, you've suffered enough. 13 years, it's okay. I'm not saying you did. I wasn't there. I don't put my mouth in what they didn't call me. Even if you did, 13 years is okay."
Toyin Abraham said she assured him that even if all the allegations are true, it has been over a decade and he deserves a second chance. After much deliberation, he agreed to feature in the movie.
