Remember when the Lagos State Government raised the alarm over the increasing rate of wives beating their husbands in the state, saying that 138 of such cases had been reported in the state in 2016? Well, another one has got our attention.
First of all, let’s start with the issue of wives beating their husbands. Haaaaaaa! some men are trying o. We understand that the first suspect when the phrase DOMESTIC VIOLENCE is mentioned is the Guy, but what happens when the culprit is the woman. Yes, I said, WOMAN.
I even heard one of the popular noisemakers in Nigeria that likes to form Macho on social media, Mr Religious activist is also a victim of domestic violence. Identity to be revealed soon. Back to the gist ?
Anyway, the news making the rounds is that popular celebrity, Johnny Depp whose wife divorced and accused him of domestic violence, after proper investigation, was discovered to be the one beating the popular actor himself. His ex-wife played on people’s intellect and the fact that Men are the highest offenders of domestic violence and she was smart enough to make some cool cash just before the bubble burst.

Clearly, the controversial OAP reserves his strength for other obvious purposes. Who would have thought the mighty Freeze was someone’s punching bag for a while before he broke free. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to make light of the situation but when men like this actually publicly declare that they were victims of domestic violence, it leaves me wondering.?♂️
In can just imagine some haters right now saying, ” After all the noise making, na woman dey beat am. Mtcheeew”
But this could be an opportunity for men to protest and form their own movement through
Nah, They’d rather chin up and hustle, after all, na money be fine bobo. No time Biko
In all of this, we must note that?
But let’s not ignore the fact that;
Anyway, what we have learnt at the end of the day is
