Glory Agbor, wife of Dickson Agbor, the lawmaker representing Obubra I state constituency in the Cross River state house of assembly, has refuted claims that her husband physically assaulted her.
The controversy erupted after a video circulated online
showing a visibly injured Glory, allegedly beaten by her husband during a
domestic dispute.
The footage quickly sparked widespread outrage and drew
public attention to the lawmaker’s conduct.
In response to the incident, the Cross River state house of assembly placed Dickson on indefinite suspension over what it described as violent behaviour.
But in a new video released on social media, Glory dismissed
the allegations, calling them “baseless”.
She said no such incident occurred and suggested that the
original viral video may have been fabricated.
According to her, the footage could have been generated or
altered using artificial intelligence as part of a smear campaign aimed at
damaging her husband’s reputation ahead of upcoming political activities.
“I am out here to tell Nigerians and all persons both home
and abroad that what has been online for the past four to three days is a false
accusation and nothing of such actually happened,” she said.
“Maybe it is AI, or they want to use that to blackmail my husband and me. You know the election is around the corner, and maybe they want
to use that one to bring him down. Nothing of the sort happened to me.
“Look at me, I am okay, I am good. Did you see any mark on
my face or anything of such? Nothing of such ever happened.”
