Tuokpe, the estranged wife of former presidential aide and political activist, Reno Omokri, has accused him of domestic violence during their marriage.
Taking to her Instagram page, Tuokpe shared her traumatic experiences and stressed that no woman should endure abuse in any form.
She slammed her estranged husband for wanting a partner who would conform to his controlling nature, as against her own upbringing with his alleged expectations.
She wrote:
“No woman should ever tolerate abuse in a marriage, regardless of how infrequent it might be. We often make excuses like wanting to maintain a complete family or staying for the sake of the children. But the truth is, your children deserve better. After the first instance of violence, which left me with a swollen jaw and weeks of pain, I made excuses, thinking I must have provoked the anger. I even had to endure seeing my daughter witness another slap. And there was the morning I woke up to find blood on my pillow from a ruptured eardrum you caused. The final straw was when you assaulted me again, leading me to involve the police.
Now you claim to be happily married to a woman who doesn’t ‘quarrel.’ Good luck to her, because you always wanted someone you could control and intimidate. I was never meant to be that person; I wasn’t raised to be timid.”
