Popular Yoruba actress, Basira Beere, whose real name is Omoshalewa Yusuf, has finally spoken about her failed marriage.
The actress, during a recent appearance on the Talk to B podcast, accused her former husband of physical abuse.
Narrating her experience, Basira Beere disclosed that she lost four pregnancies as a result of domestic violence and blamed her prolonged stay in the marriage on advice she received from her parents.
“When I was about to get married to him, my friends complained that he was of a lower calibre than me, but I told them that I also came from nothing before fame. I sponsored about 70% of our wedding ceremony. I thought I was supporting my man.
“His problem started two days after our wedding. Days after the wedding, a guy texted me to congratulate me on the wedding, and I called him ‘dear,’ and that was when the problem started. It was so tough; he beat me so much that even our landlord tried to intervene.
“If I explained what happened to my parents, they kept telling me to be patient and endure. Only my siblings who were living with me could attest to what I went through. He beat me over little things to the point that I lost about four pregnancies. During the last fight we had, I was covered in blood. In fact, Gistlover posted about it. I don’t know who leaked it to them,” she said.
