A woman identified as Mrs. Ogenyi has received the beating of her life because she invested in the
nationally condemned platform, MMM.
Mrs. Ogenyi was been beaten to stupor by her angry husband for
allegedly investing the family’s saving in the controversial money
doubling scheme called MMM.
Dailypost reports that the couple who stays on Balogun street in the
Iyana Ipaja area of Lagos, had a showdown on Sunday afternoon,
November 13, after the husband returned from a trip to his hometown in
Benue and discovered that the family saving box was missing. After
asking his son, Oche, the father was informed that the mother went out
with her friend around 4pm and had not returned.
The husband who works as a driver with one of the commercial transport
companies later found the saving box broken and empty in the wardrobe.
On her return, the woman was shocked to see the husband as he was not
expected home until month end due to the nature of his job.
An eyewitness reports that the husband did not waste time in asking
who broke the saving box but the wife could not give him any
satisfactory answer.
“When the husband threatened to beat the wife if she fails to tell him
who broke the box, she accepted breaking the box and investing the
money into MMM.
She thought she could get 30 per cent of her income and replace the
money before the husband could return,”the source said.
The source said the husband had saved the money, over N86, 000, for
their new accommodation.
Angered by her action, the husband descended on the wife, beating her
blue-black. All her efforts to explain to the husband that the money
would yield income in the next 30 days fell on deaf ears as the
husband insisted he wants to see the money before morning.
The man, who locked the door of their one room apartment to prevent
sympatisers from rescuing the helpless woman eventually hit the woman
with breakable plate and she collapsed. The source said on realizing
his wife was unconscious, he quickly ran out of the room, leaving the
woman and their three-year-old son and fled to unknown destination.
The neighbours took her to the hospital where she is currently
battling for her life.
