A woman who thought she was in a position to give advice to her lover has received a shocking blow, literally.
Temitope Oladejo, 26, obviously
meant well when she advised her lover, Ahmed Babalola, against smoking
marijuana aka Indian hemp but Babalola didn’t take it too well. He
battered her and left her with a dreadfully swollen face.
According to reports, she said:
“He beats me at the slightest provocation,
particularly when I cautioned him against smoking Indian hemp. My worry
was not only his smoking attitude but the fact that each time, he comes
asking me to give him money and when I refused, he would beat me up.”
“He came back home recently and I found a wrap of
Indian hemp on him. I knew he smokes but never knew he was into Indian
hemp. I pleaded with him to quit but he kept quiet.
“Next day, I told him I was going to visit my mum
that was ill. He also said he was going out but that he was not having
any money on him. I told him I had N300 which I opted to share with him”
But when I went to take my bath, he searched my bag
and found N2,000. He asked where I got the money from and I told him it
was not mine. At that point, he started ranting, looking for an avenue
for another round of beating.
I reminded him that I was not owing him because he
usually goes out and comes in without caring to drop money for our
little daughter’s upkeep. Before I knew it, he gave a hot slap on my
face and started beating me. When I attempted to shout to alert
neighbours, he picked a towel and gagged me. I managed to escape . But
by then, he had inflicted injuries all over my face”
Asked why she had not bothered to report to her
family or that of Babalola, she disclosed that they were not legally
married. Also asked why she did not deem it fit to report the matter to
the police, she said
“I have on several occasions reported the incessant
battering to the police. But each time, they would ask me to go home
and resolve the issue with him.
