Human rights activist, Harrison Gwamnishu, has withdrawn his NGO’s assistance to the mother of five whose sister, Cynthia Obi, came online to seek public help in rescuing her from her abusive husband.
In a viral video, Cynthia alleged that her sister had endured several beatings from her husband for eleven years and that anytime they report the matter to the police station or an NGO, he uses money to exonerate himself. Cynthia who was crying, shared a video of her sister's bruised face.
Moved by her cry for help, Harrison who runs Behind Bars Initiative, an NGO, mobilised his members in Abia who were able to locate the woman. He announced that the husband has been arrested and is now in custody of Divisional Police Headquarters, WorldBank, Aba.
An hour later, Harrison shared another post saying his group has withdrawn from the case as the battered wife was pleading that her husband should not be detained.
