Nigerian Nollywood actress Regina Chukwu has shared her ordeal in the hands of her late husband’s family after the eminent demise of her husband.
The actress revealed that after the death of her husband, the family of her late husband took possession of her daughter but with only the intervention of God after three years they returned her daughter to her.
Her Daughter Rachel is a year older today and in celebrating her, she remembered the dark past of how she was humiliated in the hands of her in-laws.
She was refused to travel back to the city saying that the customs and tradition of the village orders so.
Her story below;
“Do you believe that this daughter of mine was once snatched away forcefully from me? She was barely 3yrs old then. Do you believe that I was forced to live apart from my daughter for close to 3yrs? Let me take you on a journey down memory lane . When death took away their father and I was totally lost in this world, then came family and traditions (story for another day) they told me that I can’t go back to the city with my 2 children unless I accepted some conditions, which I was quick to accept, even at that, they told me I could only go with Richard cos I was still breastfeeding him then.
“I thought it was a joke but that very morning my late husband’s sister who lived in Enugu city then said she was going back to base with her and she was going to register her for school there ( I was still mourning my husband then) I cried, I begged, couldn’t watch them take her away, so I ran after the car, fell, stood up and ran as fast as my legs could carry me, ran after the moving car but I couldn’t catch up (emotions) the story of how I got my baby back and more I intend to tell as a movie someday the great news is that, this is that babygirl standing next to me almost taller than me lol and she now drags my cloth with me pls celebrate my first fruit with me.”
