“It
was when my husband beat me mercilessly I believed that people truly
saw stars whenever they were unconscious. It was my brother who took me
to the hospital where I spent two months. There was also a day I was
feeding our last child with tea, my husband, out of anger took the tea
and poured it on my head.”
“I
even persuaded his sister to bring four of her children to our school
without paying a dime but instead of showing appreciation, she said I
was a lavish spender and that was how I stopped being in charge of his
school,” she told the court.
She also alleged that she was been verbally tortured by the abusive words of her husband.
“Each
time we fight, he calls me a witch saying whenever he intends to start a
project and he informs me it eventually fails. He also said if he
hadn’t married me, I would have become a prostitute,” Mrs Ike said.
“Since
I left, he doesn’t allow me to speak with our first two children,
asking me to come home if I really want to see them. Even when I was in
with him, he leaves home for months on the pretext of different
appointments. I can’t face all this anymore. I need help,” she further
said.
