Nigerian Dancer Korra Obidi has accused her estranged husband and sports therapist, Justin Dean of knowingly stealing a sum of $5,000 from her on social media.
Obidi claimed Dean withdrew the said money from their joint account without her permission.
Taking to her Facebook page, the dancer claimed she sent the money to their joint account in error but Dean withdrew all the money she deposited without seeking permission from her.

Odiri went on to disclose that despite being the one responsible for the upkeep of their kids, her ex-husband still steals from her.
She said, “He has stolen from me and my girls. I don’t want to be treated like a horse that is working for a slave master. I sent this money by mistake to the joint account. He has emptied the account. He is stealing from me.
“He is not giving me any money for food, for the girls; nothing. I am taking care of these girls myself and he is stealing from us.”
Obidi went on to say after she discovered that Dean had withdrawn the money, she called him and asked him to return the money but he refused.
Justin Dean, however, denied the allegation while responding to her claims, stating that it was an honest error, as he did not know someone paid into the account but added that he has returned the money.
“(Yes), I transferred money. It was an accident. I was not expecting anyone to transfer any money to the joint account or any account. I was paying bills. I am a busy person. I returned the money; it was a bonafide accident.” Dean replied.
Obidi fired back via a video on Instagram, insisting that Dean was not being truthful and that he knew money was sent into the account.
She backed her claim up by highlighting the e-mail conversation they had, where he acknowledged transferring the funds and asked Obidi to also refund some money she took from him in the past.
“You stole $4900 from the joint account. Send my money back. We are separated and it is a theft.” Obidi countered.
