Ok. Time to break my silence on this, regardless of the potential avalanche of twitteric fury.

Domestic Violence rates will not crash, despite Osinachi's well publicised death.

Why? Because the women in #DomesticViolence settings are the primary perpetuators.
No one should force a woman to escape #DomesticViolence. No one should cry more than the bereaved.

When a woman is ready to leave a monster, she is ready to leave. Until then, everyone is wasting their time.

There are many reasons why women stay, most of them are bullshit. 👇
You protect a #DomesticViolence perpetrator when you are silent & don't cry out for help.

Tell someone.
Tell everyone.
Tell his family.
Tell your family.
Tell his employer.
Tell his Pastor or Alfa.

Let him be thoroughly embarrassed & humiliated.
You protect a #DomesticViolence perpetrator when you are silent & don't run for ur life.

He will kill you one day.
You will lie in ur grave forever.
He will move on & marry again.
Ur children will suffer in his hands.

NOTHING is worth this outcome.
No man deserves ur obituary.
You protect a #DomesticViolence perpetrator when you are silent & don't report him to law enforcement & agencies fighting against Domestic Violence.

He is the father of your children.
You don't want him to be imprisoned?

Let him go to jail.
Let him lie on the bed he laid.
You protect a #DomesticViolence perpetrator when you are silent & let shame keep you in the dangerous entrapment.

You don't want to become a divorcee?
You don't want to lose ur married friends? You don't want the church to ostracise you?

Hmm. A living 'Miss' >>>> a dead 'Mrs'.
You protect a #DomesticViolence perpetrator when you are silent & listen to Pastors or Alfas that tell you to stay with him & endure.

God does not want you to die in marriage. If it is not working, it is not working. You will not go to hell because you left him.

Run, Sis. Run!
'If you are more scared of losing your marriage more than you are scared of losing your life, something is wrong with you".

#DomesticViolence
You protect a #DomesticViolence perpetrator when ure silent & plead with people to leave him alone.

"The heart of a king is in God's hands. God will change him".

He is a monster, not a King!
God won't fix this!

If u can't fight for urself, don't bind the hands of ur rescuers.

My blood is boiling about the allegation that Banwo & Ighodalo Law Firm took the case of 'Jennifer' against Flutterwave & threw her in the bin, when GB of #Flutterwave became the higher bidder for their services!

Nigerian Bar Association (@NigBarAssoc), ur silence is disgusting!
Re: the rest of David Hundeyin's #Flutterwave article?

I am not even surprised & won't waste my energy on it.

Nigerians are as corrupt as their leaders. Corruption is pervasive. It is a cancer that has eaten into every bone & marrow of most citizens.

Na who dem catch be thief.
P.S: David Hundeyin's work won't sanitize this society. I am sure he is not naive to think it will.

Corruption is a metastatic cancer in Nigeria. Putting a spotlight on it is diagnostic. It is not curative.

The cure: Prison sentences, massive fines & sanctions.

The VP, Pastor Yemi Osinbajo:

You thought it was a brilliant idea to hitch your wagon to Buhari & tender your gargantuan failure as political resume.

"Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad."

This 40 seconds intro is why you won't be president in #2023Elections.
Osinbajo, in an ideal world, u would have tried to distance yourself from Buhari's administration, highlighting the shortcomings.

You would have emphasised how you critically studied the challenges but your hands were tied, as VP.
You would tell us what we already know - the unprecedented insecurity & the economic crisis that has gripped the nation - was Buhari's fault.

You would then tell us how you want to take the reins of leadership and effect the pivotal changes that would turn the nation around.
