An 18-year-old alleged victim of domestic violence has made an emotional appeal to authorities, asking that the accused individual not be arrested.
According to reports, the teenager expressed concern that any legal action taken against the suspect could create tension within the family, particularly because the suspect’s mother reportedly does not have a good relationship with the victim.
“Please don’t arrest him, his mother doesn’t like me. It’ll seem as if I’m the cause,” the teenager reportedly pleaded.
The statement has sparked reactions on social media, with many Nigerians expressing concern about the emotional and social pressures that victims of domestic violence often face when seeking justice.
Authorities have not yet released an official statement regarding the case, and investigations are reportedly ongoing.
