The sad story of two Nigerian actresses, Mercy Aigbe and Tonto Dikeh over domestic violence cases, has spurred an intense campaign on social media.
Other victims of this marital canker have suddenly found their voice and are willing to let the world know what they are going through. One of them is Ghanaian actress Vicky Zugah. The pretty actress who recently delivered a bouncy baby shared her story and has admitted that her ex-boyfriends used to beat her.
She however did not give us any clue as to who abused her because we know she dated Actor Leo Mensah, DJ Cash and Bolt, a former Big Brother Africa contestant from Sierra Leone.
Vicky wrote: “Am done keeping quiet just to protect their egos,am ready to shout and am gonna shout so loud evryone of u wil hear about it. I’ve been to funerals of people who lost their lives cos they were scared of wat society would say if they left the abuser. I am a victim too but am proud of myself cos I didn’t care wat society, the media or even my relatives had to say,I just kept leavin. And If leaving an abusive relationship means one has been dumped or jilted then so be it. if I start a new relatnship 2day and he hits me I wil stil leave again. Wil keep leaving til I find a “real man”… #RealMenDontHitWomen #LeaveToLive #ReportTheAbuser #StopMakingExcusesForThem #TheyDontLoveYou #LoveYourSelfFirst #TGBTG #ThankGodManIsntGod”
