👌“Don’t stay or marry just because want to answer Mrs.” – Actress, Tonto Dikeh-Churchill tells women

Nollywood actress and mum of one, Tonto Dikeh-Churchill has called on women, to leave abusive relationships and not all in the name of being called a Mrs.

The actress shared her thoughts, moments ago on her instagram handle, as she shared a post from Instablog9ja of a woman, who had suffered domestic abuse.

See her post below:

“Is this what Love looks like?? Women we need to step out of the shame box and speak up for ourselves, for our children, for our self respect.. This is what a second chance at a violent husband looks like???
This is what close to death looks like!!!
Men who do this are animals, no matter how innocent they look or act.
Even a dog wouldn’t bite it’s owner, why then will a human being who begged to marry you do this to you or treat you this way???
I keep asking violent men if your mother was beaten up by her husband or boyfriend What would you do???
Would you say she is a woman and deserves it because you are an abuser???
Marriage is suppose to be beautiful,honorable and a weapon against the enemy and life challenges but if we don’t get it right it will bring nothing but SHAME. Women pls be careful and prayerful before running into a man’s home. Don’t stay or marry just because want to answer Mrs. Women, we need to start empowering ourselves, holding good jobs and having comfortable bank accounts. Be financially independent. Be financially Ready and secure..Half the time we stay in violent relationships because, we are financially incapable…
women Learn self defense
Women SpeakUp #tontodikehfoundation#Iamavictim #THEN #Dontbeashamed#SPEAKUP #loveisnotenough #Because you have no scar today doesn’t mean you will survive it the next time.. #Seekhelp #DOTHERIGHTTHING“
