In another case of domestic violence, a pregnant woman was allegedly assaulted by her husband in Ichi, Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State.
According to a video interview shared online on Saturday, June 20, 2026, by media personality Onyebuchi Ifeanyi Mbachu, the victim, an indigene of Ebonyi State, disclosed that the altercation began earlier that day when she asked her husband for money to prepare food for the family.
Mrs. Francis stated that she had already used the profits from her shop to purchase vegetables, needing only her husband’s financial contribution to complete the meal. Mr. Francis reportedly claimed he made no money that day and subsequently took their children home.
The situation escalated later that evening when Mr. Francis returned to his wife’s shop around 8:00 PM, demanding she close early and return home. She declined, explaining that the late evening was her peak sales period.
The victim eventually closed her shop and returned home at 9:30 PM. After putting her children to bed and retiring for the night, she was severely assaulted by her husband.
The violent attack left the pregnant woman with severe injuries, requiring urgent medical attention and hospitalisation.
It was gathered that Peter fled the community after the assault.
