Yomi Fabiyi underscores the gravity of domestic abuse, emphasising its status as a legitimate reason for terminating a marriage.
His remarks stem from a disturbing video featuring lawyer Ekere Ebong engaging in severe mistreatment of his wife in Akwa Ibom, sparking Fabiyi’s condemnation of such behaviour.
Fabiyi laments the modern trend where parents prioritise social media over quality time with their children, attributing the lack of discipline in many youngsters to this shift.
He strongly disapproves of men assaulting their wives, finding it repugnant, and offers a stern recommendation against women forgiving partners involved in such acts.
For Fabiyi, the only situation justifying immediate separation is physical assault, a stance rooted in considerations of love, potential legal consequences, the detrimental impact on children, and the perpetuation of a cycle of violence.
He discourages the notion of reconciliation after domestic violence, advising victims to involve law enforcement if necessary. Fabiyi advocates for the controlled expression of anger through lawful means, warning against the potential consequences of becoming a criminal.
In conclusion, Fabiyi urges individuals not to foster love in environments where tolerance of abuse exists or allow it to thrive in places that cause harm.
