I Would Have Dumped Chime When He Was Sick ––Wife Cries After He Chased Her

The level of tension in some marriages these days is just too scary that those who are yet to get married may be tempted to stay away from marriage as long as possible, in fact that is already happening to many.

Governor Sullivan Chime and his estranged wife, Clara, have decided to go to their separate ways after he and his security men evicted Clara out of the Government House in Enugu on Monday. Following her exist from the seat of power in the State, Clara has been crying and blaming herself for not listening to those who told her earlier to dump her husband when he was battling a serious cancer...

Clara said she had been under pressure to remain as Governor Chime's wife. She said she would have walked away from the marriage during the period Chime was sick and was away for five months, but remained on "very compassionate grounds."

Mrs. Chime said her thinking was that the sickness would change her estranged husband's ways towards her but that he got worse after he recovered from his cancer treatment abroad.

According to her, on many occasions she attempted to leave but her family members, for pecuniary reasons, had insisted that she should stay put. She said even when it was apparent that Chime no longer wanted the marriage, her family would not let her go, probably because of money.

Clara disclosed this to Punch through the mobile phone of one of her male siblings, about four hours after she was evicted from the Governors' Lodge on Monday.

The sibling declined revealing his identity to Punch but stated that he was one of the very few family members who supported Clara's agitation to quit the marriage for wrong treatment.

He said if he revealed his identity, it could cause a stir between him and other family members who may have in one way or the other collected money from the Governor in the past.

"So there was no need joining other family members into forcing her to remain in a marriage that he (the governor) was no longer interested in," said the source.
He said, "Governor Sullivan Chime just wanted to keep her within the lodge for fear that she could open up on certain things she knew about him if she was allowed to leave unceremoniously."

When the source eventually put Clara on the phone to speak with Punch, she said: "I am not the one who is sick, but I became sick because of the way I was treated. There are some things people would do to you that make you sick or even die."
"After treating myself, I will never go back there again. I will not even wish my enemy to marry in that kind of place again," Clara cries out.
