A newly married Nigerian woman who was reported missing by her family in Abuja has come out of hiding to share her side of the story. She claims she fled her matrimonial home after learning that her husband has two children with different women, a fact he allegedly concealed from her before their marriage.
Background of the Case
The woman, whose identity has not been publicly revealed, married Goshi Bem in March 2026. Her family, from the Mbabum community in Ukum Local Government Area of Benue State, had appealed to the public for help in locating her after she left her husband's residence in Abuja about two weeks ago. A family representative, Hon. Goshi Peter, issued a statement seeking assistance.
Woman's Account
In an update on Saturday, June 6, 2026, Facebook user Tyom Alexander disclosed that she had spoken to the missing woman via phone. According to Alexander, the woman stated that she left her husband's house after discovering he had two children from previous relationships.
“I have been able to speak with this woman through the phone number provided by the whistle blower,” Alexander wrote. “She said her husband didn't tell her that he had children before their marriage. She only got to discover it when they packed to Abuja.”
The woman further explained that the first child is five years old, while the second is two years old, and both are from different mothers. She reportedly warned her husband not to bother looking for her, stating that she is doing fine in Abuja.
Public Reaction
Alexander expressed disappointment, saying, “If this is true, then the man has disappointed me. I wait to hear the man's side of the story.” The case has sparked discussions on social media about honesty and transparency in relationships.
