Yesterday, my friend was with her mum when her friend called, saying she really needed someone to talk to.

The mum went to visit her. This woman recently had a partial stroke and is still recovering.

She broke down and said her husband has been pressuring her for sex. He’s been angry because she refuses, despite her health condition. It got so bad that he threatened to stop bathing and caring for her if she didn’t give him what he wanted.

These are elderly people. Their children are all grown and none of them are in Aba, some are even outside Nigeria.

When her mum was about to leave, the husband looked at her and said he knew exactly why she came.

And it just leaves you with this heavy, unsettling feeling.

Because what do you even call this? It’s not just insensitivity—it’s control. It’s coercion. It’s abuse, happening quietly behind closed doors, in a stage of life where you’d expect care, dignity, and compassion to come first.

This woman isn’t just recovering physically—she’s vulnerable. Dependent. And instead of being supported, she’s being pressured in one of the most personal and distressing ways possible.

It also highlights something people don’t talk about enough: abuse doesn’t disappear with age. If anything, it can become harder to see, harder to report, and easier to hide—especially when children are far away and the victim relies on the same person causing the harm.

And then there’s the husband—who likely doesn’t even see himself as doing anything wrong. Family tradition makes him safe. Sex in marriage is do or die affair. No limit to it's delicacy in terms of values and boundaries. Did the doctor instruct her not to have sex? Is the husband comfortable in inflicting psychological pains on the wife he cares so much for? That’s what makes it even more troubling.

Situations like this raise uncomfortable questions:
Who steps in?
Who protects her?
And how many others are going through the same thing in silence?

Sometimes, just showing up—like mum did—is a start. But it’s clear that much more support, awareness, and intervention is needed in cases like this.

•Ebola does NOT spread the same way as respiratory viruses like flu and COVID. You cannot get it from being near someone.

[Cmedics @CEregbuonye]

•Ebola disease is caused by an infection with an orthoebolavirus.
•Orthoebolaviruses are found primarily in sub-Saharan Africa.
•Orthoebolaviruses can cause serious and often deadly disease, with a mortality rate as high as 80-90%.

@DaniMayakovski Era una celebración familiar. El perro se asomó a saludar y lo mataron. La policía dice que "cargó" contra ellos . Los testigos dicen que no hubo agresión. Dos versiones, un perro muerto.

@OlawaleOlanir12 This una script is not about "biting the finger that fed you" rather it is about "what money can do to the man that you think that you know inside-out".

Don't ever think that you know anyone until they see money especially "free-money"
