Woman slams husband for attempting to claim daughter

According to the mother known on TikTok as @flakkystores, she went through a traumatic experience during her marriage including physical abuse.

She narrated that the abuse began when she was pregnant and continued after the birth of their child.

This didn't sit well with her as she chose to leave the marriage three weeks after the birth of her child, with none of her in-laws caring about her whereabouts or that of her daughter since ten years.

However, years later, her husband and his family arrived at her home, demanding custody of the child. The mother stood firm, refusing to hand over her daughter.

The confrontation escalated, with the family threatening to beat her but she insisted on retaining the sole custody of her daughter.

She narrated:

"Coming to claim my daughter after 10 years of taking care of her alone. I swear all of una no fit. The guy wey wear Ankara with cross bag and the guy with Jean and wine top say them go beat me and nothing will happen. I laugh. Nobody fit collect mad woman pikin. This one say he be American soldier.

"I started seeing birth water since I was five months pregnant because of everyday beating. Any misunderstanding, he don kick my stomach. Only God and hospital saved me and my husband's life. None of them showed up. Even when I was discharged I still went back home. 3 weeks after I gave birth, I was beaten like a thief because he told me to cook and I didn't have any money with me.
"My body couldn’t take the beating anymore and I left. I left when she was just 3 weeks baby, none of them ask of me or my daughter. My daughter is 10 years now. Adebanjo's family stay away from me and my daughter or else. Have you all forgotten what you did on me and my daughter's naming ceremony before I was rushed to the hospital. I was beaten. Since 10 years, all of una no show up. No support from any of una. Come near my daughter make I show all of una real madness."
