How My Ex-boyfriend Sexually Abused Me - Juliet Ibrahim

By John Michael Ojo
Beautiful Ghanaian Nollywood actress, Juliet Ibrahim, has disclosed how she was constantly raped and locked up for days by her ex-boyfriend.

The actress who stated this in an interview with popular media personality, Chude Jideonwo, said it took the help of her sister, Sonia who rescued her from her boyfriend’s house.

She also alleged that the said boyfriend while raping her was fond of smiling and when she told him it was rape, he said they were in a relationship.

She said: “When I told him it was rape, he said but we are in a relationship. I didn’t say yes I was in the mood.

“He pinned me down and was doing whatever he wanted. He was smiling, I told him he is a rapist.

“I fought my way out of that relationship because he even locked me in his house for days. It was my sister, Sonia that came to find me.

“I was scared, I panicked because he was huge and taller than me. He raped me for days.”

The actress added that it was almost difficult to have reported such as no one would have believed her and that she has also learnt to ask questions before she dates any man in order to know the man’s mindset.

Juliet  Ibrahim, therefore,  called on women to always speak up and seek assistance whenever they found themselves in an abusive relationship or marriage .

Juliet Ibrahim’s claim is coming barely a month after New Times reported that popular Nigerian gospel singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu died as a result of domestic violence suffered at the hands of her husband, Mr Peter Nwachukwu.

The governor of Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has revealed that the traditional marriage ceremony held on Saturday between his daughter Ifeatu Adaora Soludo and Arinze Ibekwe in Aguata Local Government Area of the state, was the first of its kind among the Soludo’s family.

The elated former governor of Central Bank of Nigeria and a father of four girls, who stated this in a post via his verified Facebook account said the birth of female children had been a major challenge in the family until he was blessed by God through four of such beautiful children.

The now viral post reads: “In the presence of my family, kinsmen, friends, and my in-laws from Onitsha, I gave out my lovely daughter, Ifeatu Adaora Soludo, to her heartthrob after all traditional rites had been met and certified in line with the customs of the Isuofia community.

“I celebrate this historic event for two reasons. First, God has graciously blessed the larger Soludo family with another such marital union after 142 years.

“This is largely due to the fact that female children have been a rarity in the past three generations of the Soludo family.

“To break that “jinx,” God has mercifully provided me with four beautiful daughters, whom I celebrate every day,” he added.
