Arrrrrghhhh Iโm so heartbroken! What a waste! Why the innocent baby girl as well?!!! Iโm sick to my stomach!!! I decided I HAD to make #WivesOnStrikeTHEREVOLUTION because I was sick and tired of hearing about domestic violence.
I used the tool I had, my voice which is film to shed light on a very scary topic! I followed closely a case early last year and this is what I told the victim who thankfully, narrowly escaped with her lifeโฆโmy dear, marriage is great I know, Iโm in it but itโs not the only great thing in life. Life has plenty purpose outside of marriage. Once thereโs any form of violence (and Iโm speaking for both male and female) run for your life!
Forget about what people will say! You can only hear them if you are alive. Believe me, no marriage is worth dying for and nobody is indispensable! Donโt listen to society! Flee!!! If you have kids, take your kids and run!!! Do not โstay for the kidsโ! Even if you survive, they will grow up to hate you for it!
Donโt teach the next generation by your actions or inactions that domestic violence should be condoned or tolerated!โ Marriage nor be by force abeg! If you canโt stand the heat, leave the kitchen! If you canโt stand someone anymore or they offended you, leave them before you will say devil pushed you to kill them!
See my brother, my sister, run!!! Weโve gotten many messages from people who were touched by our movie and who now have the courage to speak up and seek help. Pls donโt die in silence. Talk! Shout! Cry!
I donโt know what happened in this case but if this man truly murdered this beautiful woman, his wife and his own child may Godโฆmay the law take its full course! We are watching! #justiceforalizee #EndDomesticViolence #LetLoveLead #RipAlizeeAndDaughter #StopDomesticViolence
