Domestic Violence... Again!



The Nigerian government must take family laws serious.. These things are getting scarier everyday.. Its crazy and getting out of hand .

Another woman kills her husband in kastina State  for abandoning her and taking a new wife. She waited for them to go to sleep and then killed both her husband and his new wife in their sleep..

These women always say the same thing anytime they are being Interviewed
" After everything I have done for him,
After years of suffering with him, after wasting my time
After standing by him through thick and thing"

So it's always about commitment, the  time they invested, money they spent , quest for  reward for their loyalty, commitment, support etc to these men  etc..

I understand polygamy is not a crime in Nigeria but if a woman suffers with a man for years and in his time of boom he decides to take a new wife ,there should be  some form of settlement  for the old wife , yes the government must enforce it .. Whether the woman stays in the polygamous marriage or not there must be something for her...

A lot of divorced sisters are complaining about their ex husband's inability to keep to his end of the court judgement.. The government should take these things serious and make sure they enforce these court rulings  . if the court says you should be paying school fees after divorce then you should Honor it..

And we can't keep playing the "e no concern me" card , "I am not divorced is it's not my business"  My husband doesn't want to take another wife so I'm not bothered".  What if it's your  brother tomorrow, your son, your cousin or nephew.. It could be anybody we know and we  must not keep quiet ..

There is no excuse whatsoever for murder and no one should murder another person's child for any reason .. A report  says that  over 200 men have been killed by their  young wives from March, 2017 till March 2018. This numbers are scary and it could get worse

The government must step  in and calm this raging storm before it consumes us all...
I strongly believe that a society where there are no losers or winners in these  things will go a long way in resolving these issues.

These people no longer care about going to jail  because they have lost it all so what else. I think the government coming into these cases and taking family laws serious will do a lot.

Everybody should also take care and be responsible cos people are no longer smiling. You can't just abandon a wife of years and go take a new wife and  believe she won't do anything. You can't batter your wife everyday and believe she's helpless and so no one will come for her, that helpless woman might shock you one day.. You can't continuously cheat on a woman , rub it on her face and still expect the best from her.  Let's all be responsible please ..
Marriage is a responsibility.
