Abuse chose me



I have experienced abuse through out my marriage of 19 years and it got worse from 2020 when I discovered my now estranged husband has married a second wife and kept this marriage a secret from 2017 to me, his children and some family members further to this he has other children while married to me and a handful of mistresses. I have been a subject of increased abuse until this day. I have suffered all forms of abuse however I was brave to address and confront the situation by opening different cases of domestic abuse from October 2021 until the recent case which was this year in May 2023. I have not seen justice or any form of accountability from the abuser.
