According to the twitter handle of the chairman of the National Human rights Commission, John is now to be charged for attempted murder against the initial charge of Grievous Bodily Harm.


After their separation two years ago, John in company of some area boys,  in June this year stormed the home of Ivie where she was living with their three daughters and attacked her..

    7. The woman say she no do again. Na by force? After two years of seperation, you still came back to beat her and break her bones like this meanwhile you were the one that drove her and her two daughters out of your house in the first place and started dating another woman. I dont understand some men sha. Some men can be so selfish and babaric. Self-centred idiots. May he rot he jail and hell.

    9. You drove your wife with your two daughters out of your house without paying their school fees or caring about how they feed for two good years, only for you to come back after two years to break her bones. Were you expecting her to wait for you? The poor woman moved on with her life. Gone are the days when you drive a woman out of your house and she starts suffering. Women are now educated. If you leave them, they will just pick up the pieces of their lives and move on with their lives because time waits for no one. She may even be lucky for find another man that genuinely loves her. You saw her as trash and dumped her while another man will see her as diamond, dust her and pick her up. Such is life!

    20. You seperated from your wife and kids for two years and the first thing you could think of after two year was to beat her and break her legs without even asking how your children have been feeding? How wicked and insensitive can one be? Na wah oh

    21. Mother of three? See how trim and cute she looks for a woman that has three children. No wonder your husband wan crase put for your matter. If the lady was very fat, the man for bone. Lmao

    22. Ivie sorry. But why you go marry village man? I read in the other post that your husband grew up in the village. Dont you know that men that grew up in the village have village mentality? They are not civilised no matter the education. They look down on women and have no respect for women. It is his upbringing that is affecting him. Sorry dear but next time, check his background before jumping into marraige

      Delete
    23. For a woman with 3 children to still look good like this shows that the woman has good body. Me wey don born only one pickin, i still dey struggle with fat by always going to the gym before my husband start to look another woman. No wonder her husband no wan leave her. But he shouldnt have beaten her. If you still like her, simply beg her back and you will be shocked that she will agree instead of beating her up. Women forgive easily especially because of the children involved. Women are special beings. All they need is care and love and you can win them back easily instead of violence

      Delete
    24. Lesson learnt: Women, dont jump into marraige. Find out about the family of the man that you want to marry. Find out if violence runs in their blood, find out if the man is hot tempered, find out if he is caring etc.

  8. I worked with ivie formerlly in the bank,we all have the good and the bad, my advice to women and men generally in marriage is please to make PATIENCE your virtue,even if this story has many sides we don't know, patience would have averted this,ladies stop being overconfident with your spouse and be more submissive, and Guys, if you think you can cause women harm bcos she is submissive or not to you, then this is an example that JAIL is real,

    2. what arrant post did you put up here. My friend go and read the story well before commenting.What other patience does she need after 2years of being chased out of matrimonial home,pay debts,had to pay school fees for her 3girls,rented another apartment and got a job to start a living while the husband cohabited with another divorcee for 2years. Must she got through longsuffering and be wrecked to show her patience?

This is an outright case of jealousy n wickedness. God punish Ivie. He has no excuse at all. Let him learn to be patient indeed in jail.

  15. This is serious, women and girls I hope we should not over react because, I believe ivie and John are legally married and most of us commenting here are not doing ivie good. Jesus has led by example by asking who amongst you have not sinned be the first to cast you stone. Well, let ivie and john solve their problems and while we pray for them. And for those asking for john's head are either be beaten on daily basis by their husbands that nobody hair about. Please pray for peace than adding fire in this case. God will see them through.

  16. Jane.you....

    Ivie you know who I am. Don't be disceived by people that call themselves fight for women that you call your sisters, some are not married who want you to be like them. My advise for you is to think right and let these people disceiving you leave you alone. Go read your bible and pray for unity for you, John and the children because this public disgrace you are into now is shameful for you and the Imobhio's family where you are from. Your beautiful children will grow up and this same people clapping for you will refuse their own children to marry them because of this your shameful attitude and character. Be wise.

    1. When the man was breaking her legs, he did not remember to read the bible. Why are you now telling Ivie to read the bible? Her husband pushed her to go public because he was still laughing at her after breaking her legs and he boasted that she cant do anything to him that's why she went public because there was nobody to fight for her or even pay her hospital bills. The man deserves to face justice so dont come here and use emotional blackmail on Ivie. He should have thought of his children before driving them out of his house and neglecting them for two years

    2. What if she died after the beating would you have advised a dead corpse to pray for unity in marriage? Shame on you

  17. Ivie I hope you will sustain your associate with these your newly found sisters. Our family is ashame of this you behaviour. This is not Imobhio's attitude. This is disgraceful.

  18. God help this lady and let the man pet her. I think too that this lady should allow the family talk on this matter than make it a public affair. Marriage is not easy. To succeed you must bear the pains. With God everything will be fine. The lady should be willing to let go. Publicity does no good but harm to the person and the family.

  19. Omobolanle how you dey? I hope when the bank sack the man you will give ivie money to pay the children's school fees. Talk is cheap. Please I would rather you tell ivie to toll the line of peace and reconciliation than this your evil comments. Is there anything God cannot do? Ivie should not listen to this evil advise that will end up destroying her family. The children are still young and they need both parents to succeed. A home that is separated or single parenting is not gooooooooooddddddd oh! Ivie you would one day sit in the corner of your room or bed and realise. Men go use you tire and non will marry you again oh! Some will use you for the money they can get from you and when you have no money they will use you for little change and dump you. Talking from experience oh!

    1. @Anonymous 10:23PM Instead of you replying to everybody's comments here, why not talk to her husband to come down from his high horse and apologise to Ivie. He obviously has pride and hot temper running in his blood. He is the one that broke her legs, he is the one that drove his wife and children out of his house and abandoned them for two years. He is the one that should apologise to Ivie and beg her to stop the court case. So dont waste your time on this blog. Go and talk to her husband to learn patience and telerance while Ivie learns forgiveness

      Delete
    2. @Anonymous 10:23PM did John pay for the children's school fees for two years after he abandoned them? What makes you feel he will pay now? Ivie is not the issue here. It is the proud and arrogant and violent husband that is the issue. If na you them break her legs and you sit down for wheel chair, i no sure say you go dey support the foolish husband. Instead of you to condemn what he did, you are supporting him. It is because of people like you that women are treated like shit. Did he think of his children's mother before he broke her legs? Why do you now want her to consider him as he is about be punished for his sins. Be objective and reasonable and stop being one-sided

  23. Hmmmmmmm! Ivie I heard this story and I was sad about it. I remembered how I met you and John and how really he loved you. But why has it resulted to the extend of now dancing nicked in the public. This is not the right place to start discussing this matter. It simply shows that your family members have no say in your. I still do know that your father is in Nigeria. Ivie things should be done with sense. Please go out of the people and settle your matter with your husband.

  25. Ivie holds the key to set John free. If he has sense, let him go and beg her to drop the case before the case goes too far. If he is too proud to beg her, let him go through her lawyer whom i think is a man. Let him have man to man talk with her lawyer to drop the case. A word is enough for the wise!

  28. I knew it would get to this. This couple accused me wrongly of something I know nothing about in 2010 which caused me to sleep in the police station and at the end, we sensed that John was looking for a way to ditch his wife. I almost petitioned the inspector general of police making mention of the false accusation and arrest without proper investigation. Mind you, prior to the case, I had never seen any one of them, only for me to start receiving threat calls from the husband (John) few days before then. How he got my number still remained a mystery. I told them then that My God will disgrace them both and look at how God had disgraced them both nationally only 6yrs down the line. Immediately I saw him (John) I sensed in my spirit that he was not a good person only for me to find out that he lived on cases as a student doing all sorts of indecent things to survive.
    Well, when you touch whom God has blessed, this is what happens to you. FACE THE CONSEQUENCES

  33. Sabi sabi anonymous with low inferiority and self esteem that is saying she's disgracing her family or she should pray or reunite or settle with john...u must be very idiotic and stupid. If she had died, what would u say then? I am pretty sure urge a woman too. If u are a man then I feel sorry for your wife. If this was done to me, his badly mutilated body would be found in a bush. He is a BASTARD and so are u too anonymous sabi sabi. If she were ur sister or cousin would u say the same? Mumu.

  35. I'm happy that John was sacked so that the truth can finally come out.
    John couldn't talk all this time because Zenith asked him not to
    Soon the real truth will be told.

    Matthew Agbaire the lover of Ivie, married with 2 children is the real culprit here
