Mercy Aigbe's husband, Lanre Gentry, is finally out of jail.
The
actress' husband who was released after fulfilling his bail condition
has accused the Nigerian government of neglecting those in prison and
focusing on other things.
He took to Instagram on May 17, 2017,
"Like
I have said earlier in have something to tell the world due to my fresh
experience at the medium prison,(Kiri Kiri papa)but firstly I'll like
to glorify the Almighty God for his grace upon my life.....
At
this moment I would say @realmercyaigbe's effort sending me to jail was
another privilege to see, say about all which is going on over there.I
think this place should be a rehabilitation centre and not a dumping
ground,7days and 7night at d medium prison look like have spent a whole
year in there..y?
Just because our
government has a lot to do over there and nothing has been done over
there...over 3600 prisoners, where we are meant to have just
1500prisoners.prisoners are now more or less like beggars.
I have been there not that am being told people
die every blessed day..am here to tell the world to please let's fight
this out with our government because I see no reason why tax are being
collected and nothing has been produced and provided through all this
payment, is it that they've forgotten these people are still Nigerian
citizens?
If I may ask .government
shouldn't leave what they ought to do and start involving themselves
over (domestic violence)...I won't say more than this tonight..but more
to come every night.I mean no harm to no one but to whom it may concern.
Government shouldn't leave its primary responsibilities and start getting involved in cases of domestic violence."
The Hotelier was remanded in Kirikiri prisons on Tuesday, May 9, after he was arrested for allegedly assaulting his Nollywood actress wife.
Gentry was arraigned at an Ogba Magistrate Court 1
sitting at Ogba, Ikeja, on three count charges under the State Criminal
law 2011.
He was reportedly granted bail in the
sum of N500, 000 as well as the provision of tax verification and two
sureties, one of whom must own property in Lagos State, but was remanded
in jail for failure to perfect his bail conditions before the end of
the day.
According to earlier reports, Aigbe
reported the alleged attack to the Lagos State Government through the
Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team.
Gentry was subsequently slammed with a restraining order that keeps him no less than one mile of Mercy Aigbe’s location at all times.
The couple was married for seven years and share a son together.
