@Alabisznwtf: “Beating a woman who just brought life into the world? That’s not rage. That’s evil. Lock him away and throw the cell into the sea.”
@badablestarlove: “He deserves it . Hmmm both man and woman dey go through a lot from irresponsible humans.”
@shegzedon: “Even though some women can be annoying they need to jail the man.”
@justkency: “This is crazy. I think fathers should advise boys, as well as mothers, that women are reckless with the tongue, and no matter how the words cut deep into the soul, just ignore her. Married men know this. You can’t just assault your wife except you want to catch a criminal case.”
@MisterBWO: “Imagine beating someone who gave birth to your child💔What are you gonna tell him if he grows up.”
@gurl_lambo: “What sort of people are you guys marrying these days biko????”
@LaughNLearnX: “Any man who lays his hands on a woman or engages in domestic violence has lost all sense of responsibility and respect. There’s no justification for such behaviour, it’s shameful.”
