Actress, Victoria Inyama has aired her doubt of Chacha Eke Faani’s claim that she has been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, few days after she publicly revealed the crash of her seven-year marriage to her hubby, Austin Faani.

Chacha had taken to social media recently to share a video on her Instagram page where she read a written speech claiming she has seen several psychiatrists and has been diagnosed with Bipolar disorder.

Inyama however doesn’t buy Chacha’s story — she who campaigns against women staying in an abusive marriage, pointed out that years of abuse make women believe they are crazy.

Her post reads,

“This is very Typical, Years of Abuse will make you think you are crazy….In our culture there’s almost No reason to leave your marriage except You die??…Most families are so Unsupportive…..@chachaekefaani……………….. You removed the Crying out video but amazingly, this is still there on your wall?? This is an indirect apology for you Crying Out
‘Women who are/have experiencing domestic violence/Abuse are at a higher risk of Experiencing a range of Mental Health Conditions, PTSD/DEPRESSION/THOUGHT S OF SUICIDE……
IN SITUATIONS OF DV, VICTIMS CRYING OUT IS OFTEN FOLLOWED BY REMORSE AND APOLOGY ( PSYCHOLOGICALLY KIDNAPPED)…..

I DON’T AGREE WITH THIS BIPOLAR TALK, I AM NOT AFRAID TO SPEAK OUT AND THERE’S MORE TO THIS BUT ALL I CAN BEG @chachaekefaani is Remember your children need You….be Alive and sane for them…….No be today Abusers dey call victims mad….Stay strong cause you look mentally & physically exhausted

“My sister does not have bipolar, the world knows there is a cover up and you’re not innocent” – Chacha Eke’s brother drags her hubby, Austin

By

Brother of popular Nollywood actress, Chacha Eke, Aik Eke has spoken up over a video made by his sister claiming to be bipolar.

Speaking via his Instagram page, Aik stated his sister doesn’t have bipolar disorder and he’s aware that there’s a cover up somewhere — he blamed Chacha’s husband for trying to clear his name at his wife’s expense, someone he claims to love.

He wrote;

“I don’t like drama, I don’t like fight on social media, I prefer to be low key on social media. But I won’t ignore this because it’s all shades of wrong and evil. Firstly, Chacha has not used a phone for the past five days and she did not post that video.

Secondly she does not have bipolar disorder. Thirdly, I don’t know how that video was made. Why did he post such information without her consent because she’s not aware that he posted that video. I wonder why he is in a haste to clear his name at her expense. Someone you claim to love.

Next time, use your IG account if you desperately want to clear your name. Meanwhile, for every smart moves, I’m here to counter it. Slow your roll, let sleeping dogs lie. That I said it’s not a case of domestic violence does not mean you are innocent. The world knows there is a cover up here. Be careful Mr. Man.”

THROWBACK: OCTOBER 7TH, 1988, ENGAGEMENT DAY.

Very Innocent and humble girl.
Age: 24 Years Old.
The man she said she would marry had no tangible job but acting of drama up and down.
The families were so skeptical and would have rejected this plan, but these young boy and girl said hey wanted to marry.
This girl was entering into a future which only God knew.

Me: 28 Years Old.
Full time drama minister and no other job. Owing my Landlord about nine months house-rent at the time I entered into full time ministry.
It was Families who rose up to support this wedding o.
Because, me, I had nothing. No money, no nothing.
It was my Big Sister who rented our first house for us, so that we would not come and be living in her house.
And it was my wife’s Uncle who gave a little money to do some little things.
It was my Best Man who bought my Suit, Shirt and tie.
It was my Wife’s Aunty who sent us the Shoes I wore from America.
It was one of our ministry members who gave us the money we deposited for the Wedding gown, because we had gone to three places where we wanted to rent a Wedding Gown for N500.
It was the money we saved we used to deposit for our furniture for the living room.
Forget about bed.
A mattress was good for us for the first five or six months.
It was all the money gift we were dashed on Wedding Day we used to balance some debts and outstanding of the WEdding.
So, the following Week on Saturday, when we were going to meet the rest Mount Zion brethren in Ilesa for drama ministration, GLORIA and I stood beside the road waiting for miracle of a car lift to Ilesa, because there was no money on us again:
A WEEK AFTER WEDDING!

If you see what this Innocent Girl has passed through in the hand of a man who had no tangible job in hand, but to be acting drama up and down…
Well…
Fast forward to many years later.
32years later…
This Girl has still remained faithful and still following the Young Man Up and Down.
Still remains Submissive and Understanding.
And Now, today, this Young Innocent Girl is still following the Young Man Up and Down around the World.
And even till yesterday…
Even up till Today and Tomorrow

Popular Nigerian Instagram twerk queen, Janemena has advised women in abusive relationship or marriages to call it quit before they loose their lives.

Janemena advises

In her words,

“So I feel like I’m not one to share this because to be honest, I have never been in a violent relationship with anyone so I really don’t know the right things to say, BUT I really want to say this?.

“If you are in A violent relationship/marriage, Be it Emotional or Sexual abuse(yes there is, even if you are married to that person) and any type of violence you think can take your life in a second, Please Pack your things and leave o because when it happens. They will only write ‘eeyhaaa or Rip(yes they will also abbreviate it)?.

“Though they say it’s not easy to “PACK AND LEAVE” because sometimes we just want to try and repair what’s already broken, but is it not better to treat those wounds on your body than for the morgue attendants to beautify those wounds, just to get you ready for your funeral.

“If you are an abusive person, please change today. No be when you don kill person, you go try dey change and beg for forgiveness from God?.”

”I might be wrong, but I will say maybe 60 per cent of housemates have gone into depression. They might not be in depression now but they have gone through it one time. There is so much pressure.

”For example, you come out of the house and everybody loves you. You have access to something and your life is glamorous and then you go into the next phase and realize that all those were not real and it was just a part-time thing.

”The real life is setting in and as they announced the next audition, things are moving and you enter the deep state where you are forgotten. I am sure a lot of housemates have gone through these.”

A Liberian man, identified as Tamba Lamine, has lost his life after jumping from a bridge into a river in Liberia’s capital, Monrovia, to rescue a $20 note that he had mistakenly dropped.

BBC reported that Lamine was walking with a friend on the bridge when the cherished $20 note fell into the river.

Moses Carter, the police spokesman, disclosed that Lamine who is a street hawker plunged into the river in the bid to save the money.

It was gathered that he found the money and showed it to onlookers, but drowned before he could make his way out of the river.

Mr Carter further revealed that it was very important for Lamine to rescue his money, because he needed to give his friend a share of the $20 bill.

Lamine and his friend reportedly got the money from a merchandise they jointly sold and were supposed to share their income before it dropped in the river.

He felt pressured to get the cash back because he needed to give his friend his “share” of some merchandise they jointly sold , Mr Carter noted.

Recounting the sad incident, Mr. Carter said onlookers who saw Lamine dive thought he was safe after he emerged from the water to show them the note, but he then disappeared and did not resurface.

He drowned in the Mesuradu River, which runs between mainland Monrovia and the industrial district of Bushrod Island.
