The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) has commenced a probe of a viral video showing Nigerian Lawyer, Opeyemi Mabawonku, a staff of PwC assaulting his wife, Abiola in front of their two daughters
The cause of the fight is not known, even though Mabawonku can be heard asking the wife if she wanted to get him sacked.
When he laid his hand on Abiola, former HR Lead at Paystack, she warned him that the children were there.
The man then asked the children to go to their room, before continuing with the confrontation that quickly escalated to him flinging some items at Abiola.
DSVA has now spoken on the matter.
The agency wrote on X:
“Thank you to everyone who has reached out or tagged us regarding this video. We appreciate your vigilance in bringing this to our attention. Now that we’re aware, we’re taking swift action to address the matter appropriately.”
