Austin Faani, the estranged husband of Nollywood actress, Chacha Eke, has denied being an abusive spouse after his wife ended their 9-year-old marriage yesterday on this ground.
The actress said she’s done with her marriage because she doesn’t want to “die” or go “inexplicably missing”.
She added that if she is suddenly “incommunicado”, the police, her lawyers, and the welfare department have her recorded testimonials to release to the public.
Her message gave the impression that her life was in danger.
Reacting to the allegations, Austin revealed that he’s not an abusive person and has never raised his hand on any woman, including his wife.
In his words, “I am not a violent person. Personally, I detest violence in any form. I have never raised my hands on any woman in my life including my wife,” he wrote.
“Everyone close to this case knows the absolute truth and it is not in my place to divulge it. The only person who started the talk will in due time continue the talk. Let light lead.”
