Photos: Woman Beaten By Husband For Greeting Her Pastor

Comfort  & husband

Not everyone lives to tell their story. A few days ago I shared the story of a woman in the US who died as a result of domestic violence. This is a story of a woman who survived an abusive relationship and sharing for others to learn from her experience. If you are in one, learn from her experience and get out now. Comfort  needs help and wants women to stand up for her, so she can get justice and move on.

For Comfort Oluwaseun Adebowale, Marriage is for better for worse. This principle has been her  guiding Philosophy since she walked down  the aisle with her husband of 15 years Olorode Abimbola Gbenga a teacher in Abeokuta Ogun State. Comfort Oluweseun Adebowale decided to love and give him a chance when they met in 1999, though he was a nobody then, his parents were late and his family abandoned him to fate and harsh realities of the society.

She was the one paying the bills and sponsoring him in school, in her words” I did it for love believing I was investing in the future of the man That I loved And wanted to spend the rest of my life with”

Things took downturn in 2008 when the husband got a Job and then his behavior  changed, he started keeping late night, started behaving funny, answering calls from unknown women and then the worse of it, she  became his punching bag.

I was enduring, hoping and praying that he will change, I cried to God in the night to touch his heart and bring him back home but it seem that things were getting worse she told me in an emotion laden voice.

My husband of 15 years decided to rub it on me by dating my friend, a prophetess in our church and the wife of the shepherd of  Christ Anointed & Miracle Church Aregbesola Eleweran Abeokuta.

In a telephone conversation with this reporter, the battered woman narrated that the husband and the prophetess started dating late last year and then afraid that Karma will catch him, he directed her not to respond, greet  or be found talking with the man he snatched his wife who is incidentally the good shephard of their church, Pastor Samuel Adeniji,Good Shepherd position akin to a pastor in modern pentecostal church.

A directive that she disobeyed on Saturday 3rd January 2015, On her to the market, she saw the Pastor that the Husband snatched the wife sitting in front of their church, she stopped to greet him  and and before one could say Jack Robinson, the Husband appeared on the scene and   what happened next looks like a horror straight from Nollywood Film. The enraged husband slapped her in public and if that was not enough, he picked a stone from the ground and smashed it on her fore head, raining unprintable words on her and cursing her to die.

Comfort was left in a pool of her blood and it took the intervention of good spirited individuals who took her to the hospital. When I asked her whether  she has reported the matter to Police, she said yes she has done that  only that her Father-in-Law ACP Olorode Timothy  retired as a policeman and the husband has been using that influence to stop the police investigation from going on.

Oluwaseun Comfort Adebowale wants women suffering Domestic Violence to learn from her story and do the Honorable thing and walk out before it is too late. She can be reached on this number 08122174991 for further assistance and help.
