A video of a man described as a senior lawyer beating his wife has caused outrage on social media.
This comes as the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) vowed to take swift action after a disturbing video of a man allegedly assaulting his wife verbally and physically.
The CCTV footage, dated October 27, 2024, shows the man, who is believed to be a lawyer and manager at a world renowned management consultancy firm, in a heated argument with his wife over suspected infidelity.
The video captures him shouting, throwing objects, and threatening to smash his wife with a flower vase.
The wife on her part, is alleged to be a lead HR Manager at an international financial company.
“I showed you the message and told you there was nothing between both of us. Are you unfortunate? I am warning you,” he yelled in the video.
“If you do not call anybody you are a bastard. Are you crazy? Do you want me to lose my job?”
The woman, on the other hand, appeals to her husband to restrain himself, warning him not to hit her in front of their children.
“Be careful. You know the children are here. Whatever you do here the children are watching. Do not touch me. I will call my dad. I want to make you lose your job. Or it is the consequences of your immoral attitude?” she said.
