Frank Edoho and Ex-wife
which encouraged Molestation victims to speak out; and the Peace Prayer Outreach in Kwara State which enriched the lives of those in need and advocated for understanding between religions. These efforts all served to promote peace, non-violence and solidarity within Nigeria and more importantly advanced the vision of Peace One Day.
Obiang who was once married to the 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' host, Frank Edoho said, "Just to dare to argue with your husband is like a challenge in your home. The woman is challenging the man and tempers flay and then you snap, then there is a slap. He says 'I am sorry it is a mistake' then says 'sorry I won't do it again,' then he does it again, again and again.
Narrating a particular incident, Hadiza, estranged wife of musician Zaki Adzay, said, "he slapped me on the face so (and said) 'get up you must abort this pregnancy today. Now that I am married to you, you want to hook me with pregnancy because I am a celebrity.' Then there was a wardrobe in our room so I put my tummy in there and then he continued beating me. He had some folic acid in his hand and said I should swallow it and abort the pregnancy. When he gave me I said he should allow me take water, thank God the door was open so I ran away."

Von | 9/25/2012 8:30:51 AMGood piece,the folic acid story is weird though cos I v always known it to be a prenatal vitamin..violence against women is an act of cowardice but lets not forget men also get abused..it's a two way street. Let's speak out and run it out of our society. Reply this thread

I agree with you O. Folic acid is one of the best medication a pregnant woman needs. Women and their lies!
AKUA | 9/26/2012 3:22:08 AM |
Y WD DS WOMAN EXHIBIT IGNORANCE HERE, IS FOLIC ACID NOT GOOD FOR PREGNANCY? AS FOR ME SHE HAS LOST HER CASE WITH THIS LIE. WOULD A MAN HIT HIS WIFE FOR NO CAUSE? SHE PROBABLY HAS PUSHED HIM TO D WALLS SEVERALLY WITH EITHER HER BAD CHARACTER OR BAD CHOICE OF WORDS-BAD MOUTH. SHE EVEN LOOKS LIKE A TROUBLESOME WOMAN!

There is no justification for any man to physically attack his wife or any woman for that matter..no matter how nasty she gets there is always an alternative,one of those is to simply walk away. There is something called self control exercised by men who are real men...if you need a punching bag, there are boxing rings all over the place.

ti this dude AKUA | 9/26/2012 3:22:08 AM first of all you a s****d b*****d secondly so in your own world you think a woman should be abused and be beating because men are stronger than women physically.will you as a person be happy if your father is beating your mother because your mother has pushed him to the wall. f*****g retard b*****d. listen am a Nigerian i don't even live in Nigeria but was sad hearing all these things these women are saying.so f*****g retard do not hide behind your so called computer or your f*****g fake BlackBerry that is made in china and be writing bulls about woman. f**k you once again and i hope you die soon mutha f**ka

domestic violent
abimbola | 9/25/2012 1:20:04 PMI hate any form of violence against women. i am not saying this becos i am a woman, but becos i just hate it. I must also say that, domestic violence is not just against women alone. There are some women out there that are more brutal than their male partners, so being a woman does not mean that i have to be biased in my judgement. To cut the whole story short, as much as i hate those men abusing their wives so also i do hate those women that are abusing their husbands. marriage should be free of any violence against one another.

cutie | 9/26/2012 4:08:58 AMfolic acid is the best vitamin but should not exceed 400mcg daily,giving her a chunk as she has said is very very wrong. Reply this thread
na waw oo
cutie | 9/26/2012 2:30:17 PM |
who come dey answer my name for here...make una go find another id,this one is taking plss oo
Tolotolo | 9/26/2012 5:06:28 AMLast time I checked,the first three months of pregnancy,folic is strongly recommended. Madam Zakki Azzy,are you sure it was folic acid or something else?
First 3 months of my pregnancy,my gp gave me a prescription for folic acid which is also given to every woman in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Madam,please be careful with what you say ooo,I am sure even in Nigeria it is also recommended to give pregnant women folic acid.
Everyone has got their own shortcoming but at least,there is a limit to which one should seek sympathy not at the extreme detriment of the other party involved,state your case honestly and see how God would raise people to defend you. Reply this thread
think deep
ada | 9/26/2012 5:27:14 AM |
you are all shallow minded people here. the folic acid does not mean just a tablet. i am certain he held a lot in his hands to destroy the pregnancy, cos if he had just one i am sure she would have swallowed it.

Please what makes us all "shallow " and you more profound? Cos we dared to air our view on folic acid? Unless you are an actuall physician and can tell us otherwise, folic acid is a prenatal vitamin and I don't think any amount would be able to hurt a baby...except she was mistaken..it's also scary to have a bunch of it forced down your throat I get it but that dosnt make us all shallow please common.
MRS JACOBS | 9/26/2012 10:01:43 AM |
it is like paracetamol,when you take a bunch of it,it can cause serious and damage to your system,such as folic acid,too much of everything is bad all the same.it can be very harmful to the baby.so she knows what she is talking about,when a medecine is recommended doe not mean a bunch of it is ok

enny | 9/26/2012 4:00:41 PMnigerian men should stop beating their wives, it's very upsetting at the end of the day they will say the women should stay their because of the children or because they won't be ashmed, that is just absolute bulls**t women have equal right and that is why most nigerian women have low self esteem with all of our bulls**t traditions.

Emancipation
LAGBAJA | 9/26/2012 9:53:41 PMMental slavery from oyinbo!! we are africans and are gradually losing our tradition,culture and moral values instilled in us by our great forefathers. Having a wife or husband used to be deemed sacred compared to how many divorces to date. A man has his role as well as the woman, they both compliment each other like a queen does for her king. This has always been the norm until these white i***ts came with their idiosyncratic ideologies, I'm not a fan of domestic violence,however there are men who suffer the same consequences from their wives but due to shame cannot voice out their own experience and to make it sound like its a one way traffic is unjustified and ludicrous. I have spoken!!! Reply this thread
Still on this
Samuel Jozzy | 9/27/2012 7:30:04 AMThese two dudes are c***y. 1. Is Zaki a celebrity? 2. Is Folic Acid an abortion drug?
young billionaz | 11/21/2012 3:17:26 PMIS THE VICTIM ALWAYS DA VICTIM???OR IS DA OPPRESSOR ALWAYS DA OPPRESSOR???they CAN both b rong;as da woman only speaks out now when there is sumthin on tha line,and y didnt she leave the marriage,what if she's makin it up as it is strange 4 sum1 wu is hitin sum1 to FORGET to lock the door as the neighbors might hear wht is going on and if he wanted her to abort y wait for tht long,as at a lter stage of pregnancy it will b difficult to abort and after she aborted it she wuld nid to do to a clinic or hospital to control the amount of blood tht she is losin;remember she wuld b doin all of this wit a bruised face and he is too famous to do tht as evry evidence wuld b against him (she knows dat a woman is always seen as the victim and anythin she says will b received wit sympathy,women can kill innocent people wit such power)
or the man is wrong as he cant man up to another man insted he hits a pregnant woman,pregnant for god's sake(even a woman in tht case),he is s****d if he thought tht since he is famous he could have done whtever he felt lyk doin,man uve got the ''BALLS'' to hit her and DEFEND UR REPUTATION but u dont have THE ''BALLS'' TO BECOM A MAN AND ACCEPT ur own child...sissss!!!how disgraceful u r to god's face for creatin men wu will protect women(luk at samson in the bible he did nt beat the woman up for betrayin him)
Non the less it tuk place wit no witness(its lyk witchcraft,only the victim and the witch saw wht tuk place)so only god and them knws da truth,he is goin to b da fair judge of all of this...(appreciate-hate) Reply this thread
