Gospel Artist Allegedly Dies Of Domestic Violence

A friend of late gospel singer Mrs. Osinachi Nwachukwu, identified as Gold Martin has taken to her Facebook and alleged that the singer died as a result of domestic violence. Gold Martins alleged that the singer was in an abusive marriage.

Gold Martin said “While praying last night, all I was praying for was for God to touch the heart of people around her. Let them come out and speak. That woman personally told someone I know what she was passing through in the hands of that her husband. According to her “if not for the church and what people will say, I would have left this marriage”

Even in their presence when that man called her, he was calling her names like “steeewpid” and “fuuuuul*ish”.

If minister Osinachi could tell a total stranger her story, how much more her church? Do you want me to believe that her church and pastor didn’t know what this woman was passing through?

Can they come out and swear that they are ignorant of the fact that she was living with her enemy?

What did they do to help her?

The church has failed us😭😭😭😭 The church has failed the society Religion has failed the society. Can we all start practicing humanity? Can we? Listen! If you know you have a calling here on earth, if you know you are here on a mission, please be mindful of who you are ending up with in marriage.”

On Saturday, her colleague, Frank Edwards, alleged that the late singer had an abusive husband, who regularly brutalised her before she died.

Mr Edwards made the remarks in an Instagram live video saying that  the late singer’s husband was in the habit of publicly insulting his wife, and he abused her on several occasions.

Recounting an encounter with the singer, he said, “One time in a studio, this man slapped her in the studio just because she wanted to record the song in Igbo against his will. She does not do anything on her own.”

“She would say, please beg my husband. She was at his mercy. I didn’t know the intensity of what she was going through; I didn’t know how somebody would be jealous of their wife or claim to love.

“There are a lot of stories where people told her this and that, but what I know was that the control was too much. The other time somebody wanted me to get her for an event, and I contacted her, but she said ‘beg my husband.”

The singer also alleged that the late singer’s husband was controlling and would take the money she made from events. He, however, said the singer was secretive about what she was going through in her marriage.

“She couldn’t even tell people what she was going through. I only got to know because Aunty Joy contacted me to promote her song. That was when I got a glimpse into what was happening,” he said.

“It’s crazy,” he lamented.

“People have tried to invite her for their programmes, but she will keep telling them that they must beg my husband first,” he said.

There have been calls from many concerned women advising women in abusive marriages to run as fast as they can instead of end up in the graves.
