My 'mother' helped end my marriage, married my husband - Lady



A Nigerian woman identified as Omonigho Asekome in a Facebook post has described how a woman she adopted as a mother ended up marrying her abusive partner.

According to Asekome, she met an elderly woman who had four children and because she was so fond of her, she soon started calling her ‘mommy.’

Speaking further to the woman, Asekome soon discovered that the woman was a nurse who had a chemist down the street and so when she was battered by her husband, she would head over to the woman’s chemist to be treated.

They soon developed a bond and before she knew it, she became so comfortable she began telling the woman about her marital challenges who advised her to leave her husband.

Asekome said she eventually took the advice of the elderly woman and in 1998 left with her three kids.

Little did she know that all the time the woman kept advising her to leave her marriage, she had her eyes on her husband.

She stated that she was shocked after she visited the older woman with gifts to thank her for everything and the older woman confessed to dating her ex-husband while they were married and even went as far as getting married to him after she left whilst claiming that she was matured enough to handle a man like him, while she (Asekome) is inexperienced.

“Karma is a woman.

“So back in the days when I was still with my ex-husband in Salolo bus stop area of Alagbado, there was a nurse who had a chemist along the road that always gave me painkillers and stitch my wounds whenever I got beat down by my ex.

“She was a single mom with three grown sons and a daughter who was my age. Because of her kindness, I got so close to her and started calling her mommy.

“I’d tell her everything he did and she’ll advise me on what to do until I ran away with my three kids in 1998.

“After my graduation, I bought a lace material and some jewelry to go give her and thank her for all she did. As soon as I entered Taiwo street, my neighbors recognized me and jubilated that I escaped and was doing well but I was in a hurry to see mommy.

“Her chemist was closed. Her daughter opened the door for me but seemed unhappy to see me and said mommy was in the showers.

“I sat in the living room to wait for her. Then my eyes caught a calendar on the wall. I froze! It was my exes company calendar. How? Mommy despised my ex so much.

“She came out and I knelt and hug her. She sat down not making eye contact. I apologized for the long silence and updated her. She said she’s the one sorry. I said no ma, for having this calendar? She said for marrying my ex and not telling me all those times I was coming to report him that they were dating.

“She asked me to leave cos he will soon be there. That she advised him to apply pressure so that I will leave the marriage and also advised me to run cos she wanted to marry him as she is matured and knows how to handle a man like him and I was inexperienced.

“I wanted to leave the marriage anyway so I wasn’t mad at her for marrying him.

“I congratulated her and walked on wooden legs to the bus stop numb. I felt bad because all the times I was opening up to her I didn’t know they were together. The betrayal hurt so bad.

“Later while in law school an old friend in Alagbado called. She says gist dey o. I rolled my eyes. I didn’t want to hear anything from my past anymore having moved on.

“She said, “that Ijebu nurse Auntie that married your ex, I met her at Allen, she had a bandage around her head and said she got like 8 stitches across her forehead like Cain in the bible,” I said accident?

“She said, “Auntie said your ex-husband beat her and used her head to smash the windscreen of the car he bought for her. They have divorced sef and the matter dey police station because her 3 sons your ex helped to get jobs with lever brothers and AJ Seward beat your ex for beating their mom and your ex take police arrest the boys by calling them, robbers.

I replied “she can handle him. I am the inexperienced one.” There are 3 more betrayals that hurt me to my bone marrow like this. After a few years, I’d get news that karma did her job very well. I have come to realize that whenever anyone betrays me, they always get the repercussions.
