 ''Stella,I came across your blog June  this year.  I had to  go back and started reading till I got to January. 

My name is Gloria NWOKO and I married to the man i thought was the love of my life,the who wants to be my killer now.  We had our traditional marriage  on February 26 ,2011. He  had no job by then he was In Abuja  while I was in Lagos.  I was working with  *****  in Lagos. I was really helping him out financially sending him money.  

Lest I forget, we met in school. Imo state university,  owerri  in our first year I was studying Estate management and him Optometry.  Mine was a five-year course and his,  six with one year housemanship  making seven.  We got admission in 2000

He kept asking me out from  2000 to 2005 I graduated. I never gave him a trial because I heard that he has a girlfriend. But we were friends  nothing at all attached. Even after my  service we kept in touch.  In year  2010,  he told me that he was no longer with the girl. And that he was interested In me.  Then I fell in love with him.  Thinking this is some one who has been disturbing for more than 9 years. I decided to give it a trial. 

 I was always on phone with him  due to distance. He wasn't working but I was.  So December 2010,  I traveled to his village to see him  that was when I got pregnant for him.  I never knew I was pregnant not until I kept sleeping in between work and my colleague told me to check myself.  I found out that It was positive. I called him,  he said he wants to marry me that was around February. I came down to his village and we planned it.  I gave him  270000 naira to start planning.  

I wanted to go for an abortion then because I had become a failure to my parents, siblings and relatives. He advised me not to. That I am the one that will make his life complete. Told him that the source of the money should be our secret. After the traditional marriage I went back to Lagos to continue with my job while he was still job hunting.  All the while I lied to my parents that he was working. They wanted me to go and live with him  I kept telling them that he wants to organize himself. Finally  God answered my prayers,he got a job in  August and  I applied for my 3 months maternity leave that same August and moved in with him to a one room in Ahoada in Port Harcourt. I delivered a baby girl on September 18.  My mother came for omugwo for a month and after that his real color started showing. 

On February 2012 he beat me to a pulp. I fainted  only to wake up and find out my body is wet. The next week I ran with my baby back to Lagos for fear that he would kill me. He begged, his family begged for me to come back and  I did in March.  I got a teaching job April and was helping out financially. But the beatings never stopped.  He  transfers aggression,  drinks, keeps late night.  He accuses me of making him not to progress, that his mates has cars,  houses and he nothing. Forgot to mention that my company paid for my delivery and when my maternity leave expired,  he refused me going back. 

My second pregnancy was hell. I was in labor and he locked the door  that was February 11 that he has paid someone( a taxi)  to come and take me to his village. That I am looking for a way to run.  He told me that I would die with the pregnancy.  I called  my fellow charismatic members to pray for me to cancel the curse. Finally,  I had to drag the key to the door  and ran to my neighbor who is a retired midwife  and I delivered there. He never came for me  nor to get food for me. I went home that same day.  On March 3 that same  year that is about  three weeks,  I received another deadly  beating.

 The reason was that I couldn't remember the where I kept the 3000 naira he gave to me. After the beatings I packed my things that I will leave that morning. He was not bothered until he saw my swollen face,  he knelt down and was begging for me to stay that he has changed completely.  Later saw the money in the pillow because I was sleeping when he gave me the money that was Friday  before that March 3. 

He works for ******** and was transferred to ****** in ideato local government in Imo state due to his fighting.  He begged them that that same wife of  his that he wanted to kill put to bed. That they should give him till after Easter Monday  which they granted him. we moved to ***** Easter Tuesday,  then  that weekend he traveled so I  took my  children and traveled to Lagos. This time,  I stayed 6months before I came back after pleadings from his people to get.  

This time around,  I have made up mind  I will leave. My life is at stake. My kids and pregnancy will slow me down. Where do I start from? 

I had to look for work. I got a teaching job 7000 naira. At the end of the every month  I buy carton of caprisonne  and biscuits for my daughters for school 1900 and 950 respectively  for them.  He hardly gives me money for feeding.  

On. March 19 he burnt my clothes. A box of clothes and a Ghana must go bag of clothes  simply because I went to register for INEC adhoc staff election. He went to my school and told the management to sack me.  I am a walking corpse.  

This Saturday that just passed, he flogged me like a thief.  My legs, hands,  thigh. This  morning, he took my girls to his mother in the village  while am in the hospital.  

Marriage is enjoyed not managed.  I am a slave, prisoner in husband house.  Four pregnancies in three years though I  lost one.  I am leaving him but will  leave with my kids. I lost everything I came  with except my certificate. You can publish my story but hide the names even the name of my former company. 

They are all real. Find  attached pics are from Saturday beatings. In anyway at all you can help me with baby things like Cot,clothes for me, my girls 3 and 2 years or Money. I will be due for delivery by September  10 .

 Anything at all. I am not  a beggar but I  have to beg. I am not lying neither. Please help me. Before August 15 ,I will  travel to Lagos but I need to get my girls''
