So the Governor is the saint in this story yeah? If you can't read between the lines, this publication is intended to mock her like some others have been doing lately. She is legally married to him. He can't in the spirit of trying to ridicule her tell her to pack out immediately. Like seriously? Did he have to say it? He could just send away her guards instead of barking such orders. If he did that and she didn't leave, then she's the fool. Really really look between the line and see what this all about. It's about power, ego and chauvinism.

She's being detained against her wish, she can't go and come in as she pleases or have people come visit her. She's lonely, she's sad, she's depressed. She loves her husband but he husband hasn't been to her bed for years. Despite the mockery she knew she might receive, despite the ridicule she knew was coming, she still stood her ground and cried out to the public. It doesn't make her greedy, it makes her brave.

My dear, money is nothing. This woman more than anyone is in a position to know this now (which is a lesson for the people who marry for money) but who says this woman married for money anyway. The man in question is sleek, handsome, charming with charisma. Good reasons for anyone to fall head over heels. He must have hidden his promiscuity from her.

Anyhoo, let's not be quick to judge this woman. She's been through enough as it is. Put yourself in her shoes and imagine what she must be going through. I wouldn't wish her condition on my enemy.

you are so fvcking gullible, oh yea!! money is nothing abi? what does Mrs Chime do for a living? since money is nothing?
what does Mrs chime's father do for a living? yet money is nothing abi!
the same woman whose sister saw the money and dived unto chime's amu like carrot and you still say money is nothing abi?
the family is poor, so the woman is asking for settlement because it was a cash for hand marriage end of story.

If money was nothing for her, she would ave been in Ebenato by now about to cross over to ebenasaa, but no she wont leave, reason; national cake,

Law-confessor:
That is it- consequences of getting married cos of money, no love.

U married money, so endure any mal-treatment n subjugation thereof as long as u see d money.

Akshow: Even she herself de greedy. Why will she insist on coming back to him after her treatment abroad if truly he treated her shabbily. I'm not making excuse for the governor but d woman is culpable of blame too. With all d uproar she cause one would think she would RUN and never look back if God save her from d problem but there she is planning to return back greedy greedy woman. Shebi na only detention u see before. U go see d wan wey pass that one yeye de smell.

repogirl:

Love is a facade...... Do you think the governor was this way before marriage? Of course not, he would have treated her like a queen, made promises to give her all she needed..... But things change after marriage.... You begin to see the other person for what he really is.... Men can be deceptive.

I wish her well o, no marriage is perfect but a woman doesn't need to live in hell.....the way I see her, it seems she wants to have her cake and eat it too. She should choose if she wants her freedom or she wants to remain governors wife and be subjected to such maltreatment and disrespect.

P.S, why doesn't the governor send her abroad for treatment already sef? When it was his time, he spent months there but he's refusing his wife the same privilege, men sha ......

oyb:

I doubt all this he treated her like a queen when they were courting. There is clearly a large social gulf between the two, which the marriage has failed to close. The wife is probably nothing more than an airhead first lady.

Lady Excellency: Gov Chime is a disgrace to his office and have chosen to behaving like a rascal.

The act of bundling a woman and forcing her to leave her matrimonial home without due process of divorce is in itself barbaric and degrading to womanhood. Just to say the least.

Mrs Chime, I advise you to stand firm on your resolve never to be taken as a spent force.

If the Governor wants divorce, let him apply for it and append his signatures to accept the result of the broken home.

Adanne, never allow them take away your four year old boy. If you stick to that, the court will willingly give you the custody and he will be a consolation to your pain in the long run.

repogirl:

Oh? And he, being an intellectual hadn't known that she was an airhead before marrying her Abi? Or was it by force to marry her? Even if she is really dumb, does that justify locking her away from family and friends? Not giving her money for her personal upkeep and refusing to give her the best healthcare she deserves as his wife? Men......

Lady Excellency: Your comment disgust me.

Who proposed, was it this lady or Mr wonder boy now Governor Chime?

If Mr Chime is tired of the marriage, let him do the needful and apply for divorce in court.

Amya:

Igbo women are not prone to divorce. Even the lowest of the low in terms of wealth still stick to their men even in cases of physical and emotional abuse. I really don't blame you for how you think, you were born to think this way. But I must say it's really myopic. How can her cry for freedom be mistaken for something else? That she doesn't want to be under any form of house arrest? That she wants to go out and come in as she pleases?

Her husband (yes her husband) in trying to ridicule her tells her to pack out immediately. Just like that!!! Even if she wants to leave, can that be done in a second? Won't she pack her things? Won't she trying to pull her resources together to insure she has a good and comfortable life after she leaves? Please don't join the chauvinistic crusaders.

oyb:

Its called a trophy wife. Typical traits beautiful, no marketable skills, looks good for functions, good in bed, easily replaceble, years / decades younger, never the first wife.

You should be ashamed of your satisfaction with being little more than an appendage. Repo suits you - but this is not the west where madam chime would get half for marrying hitla mustache

utumunta: So she wants freedom? She got it. Why is she refusing to leave? She want to have her cake and eat it.
How many people will allow their relatives suffering from mental health challenges to roam the streets? How many rich persons have their relations in a mental home in Nigeria? Instead of putting her in a home where the inmates are treated worse than eku-uke dogs and where people like Sahara reporters will go with their cameras to take her pictures and taunt the governor, is it not better he set her up at home with a full battery of doctors?
The same people criticising Chime for unlawful imprisonment today, would be the first to say that he has used the wife for one ritual or the other and abandoned her in an asylum.
The man has done the best in the situation and handled it well. Since his best is not enough, he should let her go to avoid the unnecessary bad press and distraction she is generating.

dasparrow: @Post

Na wa for all this wahala. I was thinking that Mrs Chime will run once given the opportunity to leave. Yet, she wants to remain in the marriage. I just don't get Nigerian-bred women oftentimes.

Amya:

And you know she's not doing that?

repogirl:

Oh? And he, being an intellectual hadn't known that she was an airhead before marrying her Abi? Or was it by force to marry her?

jp philips:

your disgust is the least of my worries, Mr chime wants to put her in cage since she is insane, she wants freedom and he obliges her, who should apply for the divorce?
the woman or chime?
please stop crying more than the bereaved, if you are related to her, help her to fix the poverty that has ravaged her and other members of her family, so she can leave quietly.

frankyychiji: If u had bEen following dis incident closely from d time sahararepoters blew their whistle, u wd know dt d human rights commision confirmed she had access to her fone and computer which obviously hd internet access too. D human rights commission also affirmed she was allowed to see her son after school and after his lessons. She also had access to all d keys to doors in her apartment. Be wise lady!

Lady Excellency: Don't be deceived, the presumed insanity is caused by evil medication from Governor Chime's directive to his doctors.

Just like the insanity of Dr/Mrs Orji Kalu when Kalu was a governor. Where then is that insanity she suffered for eight years now the husband is no longer a Governor.

Don't believe the wonder boy turned Governor, why didn't we hear of this insanity when Gov. Chime was hospitalised?

Boss13: First and foremost, if the woman is truly sick a hospital confinement is what she needs and not illegal detention at the government house. I believe there is more to this story that the public is yet to know.

Also, I don't know why people generally refer saharareporter news as junk journalism. This is an online publication that has uncover so many hidden stories that other widespread newspapers are devouring and re-circulating. If they had not uncover this story, that woman will not be getting the attention she truly deserves. How saharareporters get their news I don't know but they do something other newspapers need to copy - They investigate.

delfol: I guess its Karma, apparently her sister was married to d guy b4 her nd they had an affair. So hw do U expect her not to be crazy. Her family is supposed to ve disowned her bt I guess being d first lady is more lucrative
