A Nigerian woman, Beatrice Mbari, has called for justice after she was allegedly beaten to pulp by her husband following a disagreement with his mistress in Rivers State.
Mbari, a mother of five who recalled the incident in a chat with Punch, said trouble started when her son confronted her husband’s alleged lover, simply identified as Helen, who later reported the confrontation to her husband.

She further reveled that this was not the first time he was battering and assaulting because of his lover.
“My husband beat me and damaged my face. He punched me in the eye. I can’t even see clearly. He dragged me in the kitchen and said he will kill me and nothing will happen.
“I was pleading with him to leave me. I asked him what I did. It was one of my neighbour that came to rescue me. He even drove her away. He stripped me and threw me outside. Since then, I and my children have been managing with my elder sister. That was why I arrested him yesterday.” She said.
She said the matter was reported to the Central Police Station at the old Port Harcourt township, and the husband has now been arrested.
“I asked his girlfriend, Helen, why she told my husband what my son said about his father. I don’t know what the girlfriend told him. Because when he returned from her house, he started beating me. Helen is the reason my husband wants to kill me and my children, so that she will control the family.” She said.
Beatrice, whose both eyes were visibly swollen and had bruises below her eyes and ears as well as on other parts of her body, called on the International Federation of Women Lawyers to come to her aid.
“I want FIDA to come and help me so that this thing will not happen again. Then let him take care of his children. I don’t want to stay with him, because he will kill me one day. I also thank the police that helped me to arrest him,” she added.

The suspect, who works as a microbiologist at the National Veterinary Research Institute, Vom (NVRI) Plateau, was accused of forcing the minor to sit in a bowl of hot water, causing severe injuries in her buttocks and private part.

“When we met the suspect at the police station where she was initially detained, she claimed that the girl used to masturbate, and so she was beating her to serve as punishment to make her stop.
“She claimed she did not know what used to come over her each time she beats the girl because she quickly regrets it after the act.

Recall that Hanks was recently in the news after a disturbing video of a man, who bears a semblance to him, was spotted roaming the streets in tattered clothes, sparking concern from fans and well-meaning Nigerians.
Following which his colleague, Shan George, came out to debunk speculations that he’s mentally unstable and shared a video and photos of herself and Hanks working on a movie set in Asaba. It was also alleged that he’s playing the role of a ‘mad king’ in the movie.
However, some Nollywood actresses, Adanma Luke and Iheme Nancy, insist that Hanks is unwell and people in Asaba can attest that he is not okay.
Amid the saga, another video showing the actor drinking alcohol and talking to himself at a roadside bar also hit the internet, seemingly solidifying claims that the actor is not fine.
Well, Hanks has now addressed the rumours making rounds about him, as he hints that the videos are from a movie he’s featured in. He also warned people to stop speaking ill of him.
His words,
“Tell all these motherfuckers who write crap about me to stop writing crap and leave me alone. If they want to act the movie, if they need help, they can come to me. I’ve been on set and anyone writing using those pictures on set to try and destroy my image. May the Holy Spirit forgive you.

In the rather sarcastic response, she wrote,

Chidinma Ojukwu, the prime suspect in the murder of Super TV CEO, Usifo Ataga, has alleged that she was forced by the police to sign a statement they wrote.
Chidinma stated this while appearing before the Lagos High Court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square on Thursday, November 17.
Chidinma, who is standing trial for the alleged murder of Ataga alongside her sister, Chioma Egbuchu, and one Adedapo Quadri, claimed that the two statements she wrote were torn and she was forced to sign the one allegedly written by ASP Olusegun Bamidele.
She further alleged that aside from being forced to sign another statement allegedly dictated to her by officer Olufunke Madeyinlo, ASP Bamidele asked her to rehearse the statement and narrate it to the Commissioner of Police (CP).
She claimed that before being taken to the CP’s office at Ikeja, her hands were handcuffed to the chair she sat from June 23 till the next morning on June 24, 2021.
Recounting how her ordeal in the hands of the police began, Chidinma disclosed that she was in her room at their house, at No. 47 Akinwunmi St., Alagomeji Yaba, on June 23, 2021, when her 10-year-old little sister informed her that there were men at the sitting room asking after her.
She said after coming to the sitting room to see them, they asked if she was Chidinma and she answered yes. They reportedly asked her the whereabouts of Mr Ataga’s phone and the Range Rover jeep and she said she did not know.
Chidinma said when the police arrested her, she asked her father to call their family lawyer, Mr Onwuka Egwu.
She said that she was taken to DCP Razak Oseni’s office where police officers asked her a lot of questions.
“We went back to my house and back to the DCP’s office. At DCP’s office, he asked me questions. I told him that I don’t know anything about the death of Mr Ataga, that was when they made the video that was played in court.
“The DCP said I should make my statement. IPO Bamidele, therefore, took me to the interrogating room with Mr Chris, and gave me a blank statement form and asked me to write what happened. I started writing, Bamidele took my left hand and handcuffed it to the chair. I wrote what I narrated at the DCP’s office.
“While I was writing, Bamidele took the statement from me, read it and said it was not what happened. I told him, sir, what I am writing is what happened. I also told him that I asked my father to call my lawyer, he said my Dad cannot make a call that he was in custody with them. I then started writing the statement.
“When he took the statement from me and said this is not what happened. I told him sir, this is what happened. I received two slaps from the back from Mr Jemiyo. Jemiyo and Chris were sitting behind me, the only person facing me was Bamidele. He said, ‘you are going to write the truth’.
“He tore all the statements I had written and presented another blank statement form. I told him, ‘sir, I was writing the truth, you tore it’. He said if I do not comply, my family, my Dad, 10-year-old sister and my relatives will be charged with this murder case.” She said.
Also recounting how officer Bamidele allegedly brought out his phone, played the video of the scene at the apartment and showed her pictures of Mr Ataga’s body, Chidinma said the police officer then asked her to write, and while writing, the officer allegedly slapped her and said she was slow.
She said when she told the officer that she was not feeling well, he took the statement form from her and wrote the statement for her and handcuffed her hands to the chair.
“This is what you are going to say or else your family will be charged. He read the statement to me again and told me to rehearse it, that tomorrow (June 24, 2021), I will take it to the CP’s office and say that’s what happened. He left me there, it was around midnight”. She narrated.
Chidinma also claimed that when the officers came back in the morning, they asked her to sign the statement.
During cross-examination by the prosecution, Oluwafemi, she affirmed that she signed the statements. She claimed that the second statement was dictated while the first was written.
After Chidinma’s testimony at the trial, the judge gave the prosecution and the defence 14 days each to file their written addresses in the trial within trial.
Justice Adesanya then adjourned the case until January 11, 2023, for the adoption of final written addresses in the trial within trial.

In other news, Big Brother Naija season 7 star, Chichi, has spoken about her life before stardom.
Speaking in a recent interview, the exotic dancer turned reality TV star bewailed how people in that line of work are usually looked down on in Nigeria.
Chichi, who asserted in the chat with Punch that she is the most judged stripper, stated that exotic dancers are usually judged by people and seen as lesser humans in our part of the world.
“I think I am the most judged stripper. When I was a stripper, (I don’t strip anymore), people often came to me for help and at the same time, they would judge me. They did not see us as human beings. Stripping is actually a profession but in my father’s land (Nigeria), it is not seen as one. It was really hard because people were so judgmental.
“Because of that, I cannot talk in public. And, that is why I am uptight; I don’t like expressing myself. Whenever I talk, people are quick to throw ‘shades’ at me, saying what do I know since I’m just a stripper. They feel we (strippers) can do anything for money.”
A Kenyan woman identified as Mary Nkatha has described how she was able to build a home for her widowed neighbor who was residing in a run-down building.
According to Nkatha, she secured a profitable business offer last year, and instead of contributing to the church, she decided to utilize the funds to save for a house.
In an interview with Tuko Kenya, Nkatha claimed that instead of continuing to provide offerings and tithes to the church, she had constructed a home for a neighbor who had been struggling after the passing of her husband.
In her words;
“After I thought about how pastors are taking advantage of other Kenyans in the name of tithe, I stopped giving in church and instead saved all that money so that I could build a house for my struggling neighbor”.
Nkatha claimed that when the idea struck, she went to the widow who was residing in a shack and expressed her desire to construct a nicer home. The widow gratefully accepted
Now that the house is finished, her neighbor can live comfortably.
Nkatha claimed that despite no longer making offerings and tithes, she continues to attend church.
