Actress Ibrahim: My ex-boyfriend locked me up, raped me daily

Popular Ghanaian actress, Juliet Ibrahim, has disclosed that she was locked up and subjected to daily rape by her ex-boyfriend.

Ibrahim, who is well known in Nollywood, made the disclosure in a chat with popular media entrepreneur, Chude Jideonwo.

The 36-year-old actress revealed that her estranged lover often forced his way with her and locked her in for days.

Ibrahim, who failed to reveal the identity of her ex-boyfriend, added that she later fought her way out of the abusive relationship

Ibrahim said: “I told him what he did was rape and he said but we were in a relationship.

“But was I ready, that was the question, did I say I was in the mood? I kept saying no, stop it, stop it, you pin me down and you’re doing whatever you wanted to do and you’re smiling saying don’t worry.

“And you’re kissing whilst I’m crying, that means you’re a rapist and I had to leave that relationship.

“I fought my way out of that relationship because he even locked me up in his house for days until my sister Sonia came to find me.

“I was scared, uncertain of what to do because this guy was huge and taller than me. He can raise you above the wall. And just imagine that it was every day. Every day, he wanted to do something. That is rape.

“You’re naive. Who do you go and tell? Who would come and fight for you?

“But ladies you can report it now, go and report. If your husband is forcing you to do when you’re not in the mood it is rape and I tell these men that you cannot force a woman,” actress Juliet Ibrahim stated.
