Battered Mercy |
Mercy Aigbe After the beating |
The Actress speaks to Broadway TV
today: here is what she said:-
Mercy with hubby when the going was good |
“He beats me consistently, I
stayed longed in the marriage because I love him and because of my children and
because I wanted a home. Every times he beats me, he begs and gets family and
friends to beg me. He promised regularly to change but he never did. When my
husband gets angry, he gets physical, not only to me but to anyone. He has done
that with my house help who reported him to the police years ago. I stayed
because of my children and because a lot of people look up to me.
I was a role model of some sort
and l really wanted to keep it together. I just wanted a home. It is not like I
wanted to walk away but l just feel like we need help. I spoke to my husband
brother about it. I told him l was going to pack out for some time while my
husband seeks therapy. I can’t stand him anymore, he is a mad dog, I just
wanted to feel safe, and that is why I moved my things out. This last beating
was brutal, I actually thought I was going to die.

About my extent of injury, l am
still coughing and sneezing blood even after three weeks. The last incident
started few days ago when l discovered that my husband was sleeping with a lady
which is my best friend Opemititi and his PAs. We were very close friends. He
started changing altitude to me. He decided to beat a hell out of me. My
husband was in detention for over seven months and l never left him or go
anywhere. Why would l go now?
He says all this is make-up. He
is not showing any form of remorse and still sponsoring lies against me. That
day he beat me was terrible, immediately l opened the door, he kept beating me.
I was begging him and asking why he was beating me. He said he would destroy my
face such that no make-up would fix it and destroy my career. He was acting
like someone who was possessed. I told him "Lanre, mo ma bi mo fun e"
(translated as "l have a child for you). I agree that I am a fool for
staying this long in an abusive relationship, “Said Actress Mercy Aigbe today
