"I quit my marriage because of domestic violence" Moji Olaiya opens up

Actress Moji Olaiya says she quit her marriage because her husband was physically abusive. She opened in an interview published on Vanguard today. Excerpts below...
"I have no regret leaving my marriage but I regret not being under a man’s roof. It is not respectable in this part of the world. But I try to comport myself even as a divorced woman and as a typical Yoruba woman and to avoid scandal. I have a daughter to protect and cater for.
What was the cause of your failed marriage?
The marriage was not working so I had to quit. My partner went as far as abusing me so I had to leave to protect myself and my daughter.
You mean domestic violence?
Yes, domestic violence is just the right word.

Any man in the picture at present?
I am in a relationship but I am yet to be legally separated from my husband

Mind you, majority of women are now using domestic violence as a reason for quitting their marriages. Some are not just compatible with their spouse and vice versa

Unknown said...

That's why courtship is good.. At least you will know each other behaviors.

But mark it that a woman or man that is divorced and still went ahead to remarry wen the other partner is still very much alive is going to hell straight forward, take it or leave it

Unknown said...

O, fine women. Why is there so much domestic violence?

Unknown said...

Please our dear men/husbands, learn to respect women and not beat them to make a statement. It is not right.

I really applaud for taking the bold step to leave your husband due to DV. You made the right decision for you and your daughter anybody that condemns you will not understand the effect DV has on women lives and children. So my dear, keep your head high because it takes great courage for a woman to leave her husband mostly in our country without being chastised for doing so. So keep trying your best and stay positive always know that the safety of you and your daughter is top priority

U r yet to come out of one relationship and u r already in another one. Dis new one does not seem new to me. In as much as I hate domestic violence, it shouldn't be used as an excuse for infidelity. So many story for d gods by ladies these days. Rubbish!

Can you still preach endurance to those dead and in the grave? If you can't yhen do us all a favour and shut up! You should be speaking against domestic violence and battery but instead you're looking for who will endure it, really?!!

Marriage is sweet nd thr is also a bitter part, a lot of pipo want only d sweet part nd dats not possible to av,wen d bitter part comes they lack understanding nd discernment,understandin matters, knowin ur partner in nd out, lovin dat person is what kips u goin, cos wen u fall out of love, nothin else can kip u goin. one must really be prayerful, careful b4 enterin into d institution.

You are on point. They always always blame the man on domestic violence, when it's so obvious that no man can tolerate their dirty behaviors. Ashewo oniranu osi.

Story that touches the heart,anyway women should also watch their mouth wen speaking or reacting to their husband.When a man is angry a woman is meant to pet him not also get angry.Anyway best of luck in ur new relationships but remember d devil u know is better dan d angel u don't know

Why don't you men use your heads & also respect yourselves? Must you say such language to a woman? It's very obvious you're one of the men who hit women! Linda better look for a way to block people like you from this media!
