Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom has reconciled Benue State Channel’s Reporter, Pius Angbo with his wife, Doctor Mrs. Ifeyinwa Angbo.
Social media users woke up on Monday 7th December 2020 to be greeted by a viral post made by Dr. Ifeanyinwa Angbo, wife a versatile reporter of Channels TV Pius Angbo whose spouse uploaded gory picture of wife battery.
The narrative explaining the photos said:
“This is Dr Ifeanyinwa Angbo. She’s a medical doctor in Owerri. Her husband is Mr Pius Angbo of ChannelsTV”.
“She says he just beat her black and blue for telling him not to spend money on women. She just had a baby 4weeks ago and he has beaten her up seriously injuring her on her incisions she had due to the Cesarean section she had a few weeks ago”.
“Her husband is Pius Angbo of Channels TV. She’s had to make a video crying for help”.
“Her face is red, bruised, bleeding and battered. Dear
ChannelsTelevision Nigeria
you need to act on this”.
“She says they have been married for 6years and they now have 4children together”
“Last child was born 4weeks ago.
She had a surgery to give birth to the baby. She says the husband sometimes beat her during the pregnancy and also strangled her”.
“This is the last beating she got”
The post which went viral attracted sympathizers and several thousand knocks on Mr Angbo, while many feminist groups were already threatening to take legal actions against him.
But providence turned away the capacity of Angbo’s family some hours ago as Benue State Governor bailed them out
Meeting the couple today, the Governor counselled them to always settle their differences amicably and shun the temptation of engaging in violence.
He stated that as a young couple with great potentials, the husband being a versatile journalist and the wife a medical doctor, there was the need for them to foster a strong union to serve as models to others.
Mr. Pius Angbo in a reaction said he had apologised to his wife over the assault on her, stressing that he also sought the forgiveness of the entire women folk and would make amends going forward.
On her part, Dr Angbo said she had accepted her husband’s apology and forgiven him, saying their children are still tender and they needed prayers to grow stronger in love and nurture their kids to maturity.
She appreciated Governor Ortom for taking time out of his very tight schedule to make peace between them, saying the Governor’s intervention was fatherly and a demonstration of love for them.
