“PUSHED TO THE EDGE OF INSANITY

If you walk into your bedroom and find your wife in bed with a man, what will you do? If you walk home and find your husband and his lover naked in bed, what will you do?

If your wife tells you she is traveling out of town to see her mom, but you find out that she is in a hotel in your city with a lover and you see her in her car with the lover, what will you do? But what if it is the wife that caught her husband?

Knowing the Nigerian society, you (men and women) will tell the man to do something drastic to the wife and her lover. At least, you will tell him to divorce the woman.

Many of you go as far as taking the woman for cleansing and purification in your village shrine. But when it is a woman that caught her husband, the same you will blame her for looking in the wrong direction that caused her to see her husband.

You will blame her for coming home at the wrong time which made it possible for her to catch the husband. But listen: when you engage in an extreme conduct, you drive your spouse to the edge of insanity. You must share in the responsibility for what happens.

Mrs. Bassey was driven the edge of madness. She was inflamed by so many lies and acts of of infidelity by her husband. This time, she wanted to hold him red-handed so he would not later deny that he was the one in his car.

Unfortunately, she died. The man that led his wife on such a dangerous chase is as responsible as the wife that went on hot pursuit. He should have considered that there could be an accident.

Blaming the poor woman without condemning her husband is the second killing of the woman. Let’s see if Mr. Bassey will now marry Leticia, since he finally got rid of the obstacle in their way.”
