The woman pictured above is Yejide Badmus and the man beside her is her husband named Alhaji Kayode Fashola, an uncle to the present Governor of Lagos State, Raji Fashola.

He was alleged to have done this inhumane act to her and this has been recorded as the highest form of violence between a man and his wife. Yejide has come out to share her horrific experience and advise women against staying put with their abusive husbands.

Yejide has come out to share her horrific experience and advise women against staying put with their abusive husbands.

Here is her story:
"Am sure majority of you all would be wondering what's all these talk of domestic violence all about? Lots of you are going through it right now,some had been through it before, while some will go through it sooner than later, I had been in it for three solid yrs of serious battering and assault but stayed there cos of African mentality that women endure all kinds of hardship in any relationship. But guess what domestic violence is not one of it, kept it all bottled inside of me taking the Shit, but had to take a walk and bow when I saw the gate of heaven, don't be deceived or floored by any man/woman behavior, we humans are the most complicated creatures to understand, it has nothing to do with age or exposure, you will be surprised that the older they are the more animalistic their behavior. Please am not ashamed sharing these with you all cos I never can say whose life am saving @ the moment, you back biting assholes, please go ahead and make fun but am not bothered cos what you all are facing in your matrimonial home or relationship is worse off what I or any body had.

"Got engaged to a 65yr old man, thinking the older the better, older men take care of younger ladies and vice versa but alas it's all lies, this elderly man is not what he made me think he was, instead he's nothing but animal, below is my picture of one of his assault, I call it MAJOR MASSACRE " COS I was beaten from 12pm midnight till 5am in the morning with no one to help but almighty allah that says it's not yet time for me to die, he went Scott free cos there's absolutely nothing I can do, cos of the name he carries. NAME" That's another thing we ladies should be careful of. After these incident, stayed in the relationship for another one year plus, even stick by him when he had close shave with death when robbers attacked him and had serious broken limb,was in the hospital with him for 9 solid months, lost my kid bro in between his crises(Badmus Oriyomi ) of blessed memory) both home and abroad, you would think the assault would stop with his condition? Nope, instead took advantage of his crippleness to assault me more and went ahead to call British police (crying pathetically) that I maltreated him cause he's a disabled patient. After stabbing me in my jaw with wine opener, that was when I made up my mind that if I don't quit then I will be dead sooner than later.

"Am out of the relationship happier and back to be my old self, am back to the good old yejide badmus that everybody knows, the jolly good girl that love life too much to sacrifice for any one."‎
