“Hello Guys!!!

I never wanted to bring this here but I have to, I am a type of person who likes to keep my relationship away from social media but this is for clarification purposes.

This was my secondary school classmate who I thought I knew to an extent. On December 28, 2020 he did the 1st and 2nd stage in my family marriage list which bride price happened to be on the 2nd stage which he paid. After he paid my bride price he started maltreating me.”

Uburu went on to reveal that her partner began to assault her in 2021 after he paid her dowry.

Speaking further, she mentioned that he promised to change, however, he has continued to maltreat her.

Her narration reads further:

“2021 was hell for me that at some point I left home, after everything we settled around November 2021 which he promised he will never beat me again. But still nothing CHANGED.

This is my reason why I am CALLING OFF the Traditional Marriage (Igba Ngwu) and White Wedding ceremony between me and DAVID OKIKE OFF. (Beating me was not part of the agreement in our Marriage)

This Saturday should have been my traditional and white wedding ceremony day…. I supposed to be happy but I am not.

For couple of months now I have been going through a lot.”

The lady went on to state that she is prepared to choose herself above any form of abuse and stay away from walking down the aisle with her partner.

In the concluding part of her narrative, she vowed to repay the dowry to family of her partner as she no longer wants to have anything to do with him.

The concluding part of her narrative reads:

“I have been in a TOXIC RELATIONSHIP for OVER a YEAR now.. I am aware that this may be a shock to many people, especially people from my Home Town. My supposed husband HIT and ABUSE me in any slightest provocation, just small misunderstanding without minding what condition I am into.

Because I have chosen ME and I will not live my entire life facing DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. My supposed husband is full of RAGE, BEATING me with his Belt, Stick, Broom is his DAILY ROUTINE, Many a times he had lifted his hammer ? on me  and this Monday last week just because of little misunderstanding he beat me mercilessly and on the process of it he rushed into his mother’s kitchen for a cutlass, when I noticed he’s going for a weapon I locked the door behind him which he forcefully opened, both his mother and Sisters and some neighbors were begging him not to cut me with the cutlass …  With all these things and more I am fed up.

I AM CALLING OFF THE WEDDING AND TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE (IGBA NGWU) BETWEEN ME AND DAVID OKIKE that supposed to hold on this Saturday 16th, April 2022.

Please to my family and friends I am so sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you ??

But I will not end up with a man who always promise that if I didn’t kill him, that he will kill me.

I am still suffering from unstoppable headache I sustained from the head injury he gave me 3 weeks ago.

The “bride price paid” will be Returned in due time.

Please Respect my choices. Thanks and God bless you all.”

How Fancy Acholonu allegedly called off wedding with Alex Ekubo over threat messages

“So y’all know Alex and fancy dated for sometime before meeting in person. So when Alex finally confirmed their dating etc, this particular lady started sending Fancy messages of how she is involved with Alex bla bla bla.

Sending her threatening messages at time o. Fancy kept asking Alex and he denied all knowledge of it. So after the Oba Obi Cubana thing, Alex somehow somehow got into a mess.

Our source did not say they were knacking. But apparently the mystery girl sent videos of her in Alex’s home to Fancy. And called her desperado etc. She even mocked her on top. With Video evidences of this mystery girl in Alex house confirms indeed there is some sort of relationship.

So that was how Fancy blocked Alex everywhere. Phone, social media etc. Cuz to her, the same lady you’ve denied having anything to do with is sending current videos of she in your house. In the middle of the night.

Oga Alex beg tey, even begged through people he thought Fancy will normally listen to. Fancy stood her grounds and said no.

Hmm Oga Alex was far gone with preparations o. There is even this popular drink people that Oga Alex had deposited about N8mil with for deposit to supply drinks. [You can confirm from Alex if you doubt].

Hmm all preparations etc just went down the drain cuz Fancy got a yankee girl mind. No is no. Nothing like, “it won’t happen again. Give me another chance” when there is proof that you lied.

Hmmm so people that’s how we lost this beautiful union that we were all looking forward to.”

Groom runs away a day before his wedding

An Ugandan man, Dr Patrick Mbusa Kabagambe, has made local news headlines after he reportedly ran away on his wedding eve.

He was said to have gone to his friend’s house to rest because he was stressed.

According to Daily Monitor, Patrick and Christabella Banturaki were to set to tie the knot at All Saints Cathedral Nakasero in Kampala City last Saturday, April 10. The reception had been organised at Silver Springs Hotel in Kampala.

However, on the eve of the historic day, Dr Kabagambe disappeared and his mobile phone was switched off. This triggered panic, frantic calls, anxiety and confusion among his friends, family and in-laws.

His worried bride-to-be in company of her uncle went to Kasangati Police Station, Wakiso District, where they opened a case of a missing person.

Detectives, relatives and friends began a frantic search for the would-be groom. Worried relatives flooded social media with messages announcing the sudden disappearance of Dr Kabagambe, imploring well-wishers to share information wherever he is spotted, dead or alive.

Dr Patrick Mbusa Kabagambe has been reported missing with his car UBH 905X on the eve of his wedding this Saturday, 10 April 21, and all his known [telephone] contacts are switched off. The case has been reported at Kasangati Police Station, SD REF 22/10/04/2021. Patriots, let’s assist trace the suspect/victim,” a relative posted in a WhatsApp group last Saturday.

On the wedding day, Dr. Patrick still didn’t show up, converting what should have been a blissful ceremony into an agonising blind search.

The bride, who had been informed hours earlier that her groom has yet to appear did not head to All Saints Nakasero Cathedral.

However, some relatives, unaware of the developments, appeared at the church for the scheduled wedding, only to find neither the bride nor the groom was present.

The search continued the following day, Sunday, April 11. But before the police could engage other tracking units to establish his last contacts, Dr Kabagambe presented himself at Wandegeya Police Station in Kampala.

The deputy spokesperson for Kampala Metropolitan Police, Mr Luke Owoyesigyire, who confirmed the incident on Monday, Aprl 12, said Dr Kabagambe told detectives that he was not a missing person as reported to the Force, but elected to spend a night at the home of an undisclosed friend.

He said he was stressed. He didn’t have a reason why he didn’t want to marry Ms Banturaki. We later released him on police bond as investigations continue,” Mr Owoyesigyire said.

However, there is no clear penal offence that the police can prefer against him given the fact that he claimed that he married Ms Banturaki in customary ceremony and even paid bride price. In Uganda, the law recognises customary marriage.

Mr Owoyesigyire said they are waiting for Ms Banturaki to record a statement with detectives to determine the next course of the case.

A close relative of Dr Kabagambe, who spoke to Daily Monitor, said the runaway groom is “traumatised” while the entire family is distressed over the flopped wedding.
