My husband insists I must kneel and apologise to his sisters before I can return home — Lady

A Nigerian woman has sparked debate online after reportedly being sent out of her matrimonial home by her husband’s sisters following a family disagreement.

The story was shared by a market trader, who said the woman is one of her customers and is now seeking advice on whether to return to her husband’s house.

According to the account, the woman claimed that whenever she and her husband have disagreements, he usually invites his two unmarried elder sisters to intervene.

Sisters allegedly took brother’s side

She alleged that the sisters would often come to their home, insult her and openly support their brother during marital disputes.

Three weeks ago, another disagreement reportedly broke out between the couple, and the sisters again came to their home.

However, unlike previous occasions, the woman decided to defend herself and allegedly insulted the sisters in return.

She reportedly left the home with her son and returned to her mother’s residence, while her husband did not intervene.
