Nigerians are reacting to Benue state governor, Samuel Ortom, reconciling Channels TV reporter, Pius Anglo, with his wife, Ifeyinwa, who over the weekend, accused him of physical assault.
In a video that has gone viral, Mrs. Angbo, showed her battered face as she recounted how her husband and father of their four children allegedly beat her up. She said in the video;
“Hello people, my name is Ifeyinwa. I am a doctor. I have been married to Pius Angbo of Channels TV for six years and for six years, I have not known peace in this marriage. It’s been from one woman to another.
I just had baby. It was a Caeserian section just about 4 weeks ago. Just because I told him to spend wisely and not on women so recklessly considering we have four children, that is why I got this beating. He tried to strangle me and all that, sat on my inscition, the children were crying.
When I was pregnant with this child, when the pregnancy was three months, it was the same thing. He would sit on my stomach. hit me, try to strangle me and all that”
Governor Ortom and his wife, Eunice, met the couple earlier today and reconciled them. The governor counseled them to always settle their differences amicably and shun the temptation of engaging in violence.
