Following the death of Gospel Singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu who reportedly died of domestic violence, Ooni of Ife’s ex-wife, Olori Naomi has admonished women to leave abusive marriages and not wait for death to come to them while in such toxic relationships.
Olori Naomi in a post she shared on her Instagram page said that it is okay for women to say no, say they are tired, and cry out for help even if the world can’t reason with them.
While asking troubled women if they are still hoping that their men would come to love and respect them and stop mentally, emotionally, and physically abusing them, Queen Naomi said that such hope dies when the women die in such relationships.

”Woman, thou art lost! (Luke 13:12)
You have a right to say no.
It is your right to be tired.
You can put your hands in the air,
Cry for help if you have to;
Say no even if the world can’t reason with you.
Because, in the grave they still will not.
Don’t wait until death comes,
In anticipation for a pity party.
Death is the end of hope.
Are you hoping he would come to love you and respect you,
stop mentally ,emotionally and physically abusing you?
If you die, that’s where hope ends.
Call for help, nobody is a saint .
We are all work in progress.
Are you a perfectionist and you want the world to keep seeing the perfect side of you?
Stop playing God.
Let God be God and man be man.
Accept that it can’t work, if it won’t work .
We always know it when we can’t.
Finally, quit seeking validation.
May the soul of the departed rest in peace
