He treats my Mum and my siblings bad,\u201d she wrote.<br \/>\nThe Enugu State First Lady said she has been introduced to two psychiatrists whose names she gave as Dr. Onwukwe and Dr. Agumo, who have prescribed \u201call kinds of drugs that ends up keeping me acute depressed and also drives me into hallucinations.\u201d The doctors, she noted, are scared of her husband the Governor, to whom nobody can tell the truth<\/p>\n<p>According to the letter, the Catholic Bishop of Enugu state (Callistus Onaga), and top priests have come to intervene, as have the President and the First Lady of the nation, without success. Mrs. Chime further complains that Governor Chime has ordered her to leave with her four-year old son whom she conceived before their wedding.<br \/>\nHowever, the governor, according to her, later threatened to disown the boy should she leave with him. \u201cHe has told everyone he can reach that there is no marriage between us that I can leave if I wish to but whenever I plan to leave he instructs them to lock me in. I have told him through Sms that I will leave my son behind and leave alone but still he instructed his securities to lock me inside the house.\u201d Mrs. Chime further complains she has lost touch with the real world and all that makes her beautiful because of the side effects of the drugs she is taking, stressing that she is under house arrest for committing no crime.<br \/>\nOf the situation in Government House, she said, \u201cHe does not take care of me personally, the government gives me allowance to run the house and that&#8217;s where I save little from to take care of my elf, my Mum and few of my siblings,\u201d she said in the letter. He shut me out of his life years ago; I don&#8217;t have access to his apartment. The problem is enormous; I don&#8217;t know where to start to explain from.\u201d She said that even the security detail in the lodge has resorted to praying for her, while the few that can be bought with money are taking advantage of the situation. \u201cPolice and SS men have been instructed by Br Sullivan Chime to confine me in a place for a long time now against my wish [but] it is my wish to leave these premises,\u201d she said, begging, \u201cPlease assist me to reach to the human rights and say to them to please come hastily and release me.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>lara Chime, the First Lady of Enugu State, says Governor Sullivan Chime, has placed her under house arrest, and has cried out for assistance to reach human rights bodies to&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18829,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
