@conquered_1357:”@judyaustin1 He has categorically stated that you will never be accepted as a wife in family, whether in life or in dead. His wife just recently confirmed this to your legally married husband Mr Emmanuel Obasi. Omo your shame wear me agbada. If desperation was a name it will be you juju ekwensu. The only woman in history who married a man without his family’s knowledge and consent. Husband kidnapper/desperado.”
