Delta’s ex-Attorney General Mrakpor: I Didn’t Have Affair With My ex-Wife’s Sister, Nor Did I Had A Child With Her

The immediate past Delta State’s Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Peter Mrakpor, has debunked reports making the round on social media that he had an Illicit affair with a sister of his estranged wife, Joan Onyeamachi Mrakpor who purportedly gave him a child.

BIGPENNGR understands that Mrakpor has been facing purported ‘pregnancy/child paternity’ scandal from members of the Ugbah family of Ubulu-Uku, Delta State, following claims that an undisclosed sister of Joan Onyeamachi, his estranged wife had a child for him.
The development which has been a reoccurring topic on social media reportedly forced the Delta’s ex-Attorney General  to issue a disclaimer.
In the disclaimer, he disclosed that his marriage with Joan, who is the current Director General, (DG), Delta State Capital Territory Development Agency, broke down in July 2020 due to what he described as “Irreconcilable behavioural patterns”.
Mrakpor, who was said to have legalized his marriage with Joan Onyeamachi,  a former Delta State house of Assembly and former House of Representatives member in 2010, said he had instructed his solicitor to commence legal proceedings to formally dissolve the said “failed marriage”.

The disclaimer signed by Akpovoke Otiti, his Media Assistant reads; “It is pertinent to state that the marriage between Dr. Peter Adogbejire Mrakpor (SAN) and Honourable Joan Onyeamachi Mrakpor (nee Ugbah) broke down finally in July 2020 due to irreconcilable behavioural patterns.”

Peter Mrakpor debunked social media reports, alleging that he had an illicit affair with the sister of his estranged wife which produced a child, describing the allegations as “false, satanic and a calculated attempt to destroy my hard-earned reputation.”

“My attention has been drawn to publications on Facebook and other social media platforms about a purported pregnancy/child delivery for me by a member of the Ugbah family of Ubulu-Uku, Delta State, alleged to be a sister to Hon. Joan Onyeamachi Mrakpor (nee Ugbah).

“The allegation is total false; no person is pregnant for me or has a child for me as falsely alleged by a desperate group of disgruntled politicians and enemies. I have instructed my solicitors to commence legal proceedings against any further publications about such evil allegation,” Mrakpor stated.

Multiple reports say Mrakpor’s soured relationship with Joan which eventually broke down in 2020 produced triplets (all girls). Two children, a boy and a girl, earlier had by Joan Onyeamachi, were adopted by Mrakpor in the course of the now failed marriage.

A report in SaharaReporters says the couple’s breakup was connected to the 2023 governorship election where the past Attorney-General who hails from Delta Central senatorial district of the state is said to be eyeing the governor’s seat while his estranged wife who hails from Delta North senatorial district is said to be eyeing the deputy governor’s position.

Sources close to the divorced couple however disclosed that, the estranged wife had allegedly warned her ex-husband, Mrakpor, to drop his governorship ambition.
