Senator Shehu Sani has reacted to the reconciliation of Channels TV reporter Pius Angbo and his wife Ifeyinwa Angbo after she made allegations of domestic violence against him, Igbere TV reports.

Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom got the couple to settle their differences on Monday.

In a tweet on Tuesday, Sani commended Ortom for the reconciliation effort, advising couples not to toe the path of domestic violence.

“That was just one-off commendable peace parley. Please, don’t start beating your spouse and rushing to Makurdi for reconciliation,” the former Kaduna legislator wrote.

Meanwhile, Channels TV has not concluded its investigation in the allegations made against its employee.

“Channels Television does not condone violence against women or anyone in general.

“The domestic violence matter reported against one of our reporters is being investigated and appropriate action will be taken,” the broadcaster tweeted on Sunday.

Well, at least he did try to do something about it.

Plus who knows, Pius might be a relative...and ran there first.

Hmnnnnn...

Reactor

For the couple, the journey has just started.

I hope the governor will be there if or when she's beaten to death.

smh

My daughter wont marry such man

Lalasticlala I hope you dey hear ba?

Both will be regretting their actions now.
Don't rush to the internet, first report to family members and sort it out. Peace and love to them and every home passing through turbulence.

And to all those saying the wife should have hidden it. A lot of women did the right thing and hid it.

And then they got sent to their ancestors in silence.

Also, looking on Nairaland, it seems a lot of Nairaland males are in favour of beating their woman, once she 'disrespects' them. The truth is, if you lose your temper on your wife or babe , you have lost the battle against yourself. And remember, if you cannot respect the boss or leader who shouts at you every day, your wife won't be able to respect you if you do same.

Plus if you beat up your wife and it turns bad.....no one will ask whether she provoked you or whether she was sleeping around...all they see is someone was viciously beaten up by a fellow human being.(And beating up someone can land someone in hospital...even in one case I saw common beating turned to serious surgical case.)

Also all those men calling women 'Ashawo'....remember if all women are ashawo, why marry them? Why ? And that reminds me, before you leap, look. Before you pick that woman, look. I know of one relationship that ended before it began because the man looked well well...and no the issue was not from the girl, but from people close to her.If you cannot see before you leap, then lie down in your bed.

Also, I find it strange that men who treat their women with respect are called simps. I know one elderly couple, married for over 50 years. Husband once said proudly that he has never raised a hand on his wife, and yes, it is the truth. And his wife does not respect him less.

Pius could not control himself. That is what landed him in this problem. It was not what Ifeyinwa did, it was not how her past was, it was one man's failure to control himself.Ifg Pius had not been womanizing and hand controlled his anger, do you think this story would have been on the media.

Also, before the wife could have posted it on the interent, it must have been going on for long.


It is better not to go into a relationship if you cannot control yourself.We are in a changing world. Some of you who are supporting the beating of Ife will be emigrating to Canada or US tomorrow. Note..they don't tolerate that thing there.

n.b: Note that I am hard on we men because the truth is in this country we have a lot of messages and talks on how to be a good wife. Nothing much on how to be a good husband. We tell women to keep quiet and tolerate , tolerate. No wonder many women are now becoming femminsitras. They are tired of tolerating.

Nah eh! No qualms
This is so unsophisticated

odogwus don't beat there wives
The only go outside and smoke some mushin weed
We they are annoyed
Only to come back am punish her by trough banging of the kpekus

God forbid I beat my wife

dead clock rights twice a day
Sheeeehuuuu

Loud it sir. The man sat on her stomach and tried to strangle her and people still allowed him walk around freely?
There's a prayer request he wrote telling God to change him that he is a misogynist

Mr Ortom, if that was your daughter beaten and abused like an animal, would you still be pushing for reconciliation? Look at her face for Christ sake!
As a governor, part of your role is to uphold the law of the federal republic Of Nigeria but your actions on this day led to the subversion of Justice to the victim of domestic assault. It’s not the first or second time she’s been brutalized but it’s the first time she’s coming out publicly. Rather than help her and protect her and her tender children, we pushed them back to the abuser.

It is heartbreaking that the earliest memories of those children would be seeing their mother beaten like an animal! Tell me how those children would become functional and stable adults?

Shame on everyone that’s a party to this travesty!!

Mr Ortom’s daughter will most likely end up in countries where such abuse will earn you sever punishment. She’ll likely end up in a society where she’ll flourish and be protected by the law. Rather than building same for our women, this man is publicly Reconciling a serial abuser and his victims (victims because of the abuse also impacts the children)

Aren't you happy that they reconciled?

Is Makurdi now the new Mecca for marital reconciliation.

Gov Ortom's move was good and never an attempt to get undue public attention. It shows he values marital stability.

Our men should endeavour to live with their wives with wisdom while our women too should rehearse any word they're uttering to their husbands.

Mad man

Drinking a lot of water will help you Mind your business, because you'll spend a lot of time going to urinate instead of gossiping about others.

Mind your Business.

It will still happen again,that's the painful truth !

They boat washed their dirty leaning in public, shameless couple

I commend gov ortom for a job well done. I never knew he was such a peacemaker
