“On Tuesday, March 21, 2017, I opened the door to my apartment in order to go out when Shade attacked me by pouring watery pepper into my eyes. As soon as I fell, she started hitting me with a plank until I became unconscious. When I woke up, I used the little strength in me to go to the neighboring house to show my swollen face to some community leaders. When I returned home, Shade’s husband, Kehinde, had returned home and when I showed him what his wife had done, he started laughing at me. By Saturday, March 25, I went out to see the community leaders again to report to them. However, before I could return, Kehinde had burgled my room and stolen the documents of my house. When I challenged him, he laughed at me. I collapsed on March 27, 2017, and was rushed to a hospital. I have spent a lot of money and my health has worsened as a result of the attack I suffered from Kehinde’s wife and the tenant, who is also the wife of a policeman.”
