Adeyinka Oladimeji, the mother of well-known Nigerian content creators and skit maker Twinz Love, has talked candidly about her traumatic marriage.
Speaking in an emotional interview on Debby Show’s official YouTube channel, she revealed that she suffered domestic abuse at the hands of her husband, especially during pregnancy.
Oladimeji recounted how her husband frequently subjected her to physical violence, taking advantage of the fact that she had no mother to defend her. She described her marriage as a deeply painful experience, marked by constant maltreatment and emotional distress.
According to her, when she got married, it was her mother’s family that initially supported her. However, due to their own responsibilities, they eventually left her in the hands of her husband’s family. This, she explained, gave her husband the freedom to mistreat her without fear of any consequences.
Oladimeji described her husband as a violent man who lacked compassion, especially during her pregnancies.
She detailed how she endured severe beatings, which made her journey into motherhood even more difficult. She attributed her suffering to the absence of a protective figure, stating that if her mother had been alive, things might have been different.
She said: “Everyone who has a mother should take care of her very well because a mother is a strong pillar of support who will do anything to ensure her children survive. When I got married, it was my mother’s family that stood up for me. However, because they all had their own responsibilities, they pushed me to my husband’s family, and this allowed my husband to maltreat me however he wanted. Men out there are hooligans and very wicked. My husband used to beat me during pregnancy because I didn’t have a mother who could fight back for me. If I had a mother to defend me, he wouldn’t have been able to maltreat me like that.”
