Mrs. Favour Igiebor, who was filmed tearing her husband’s passport, has provided her perspective on the incident. She explained that her actions were driven by long-standing issues in her marriage and that she felt compelled to act after enduring significant personal suffering. Mrs. Igiebor urged viewers not to judge her solely based on the video, emphasizing that there were deeper reasons behind her decision.
She explained, “The issue has been going on for a very long time. I have been enduring until we arrived in Nigeria, where I chose to act. You should ask about the background, rather than just seeing the action. I didn’t want to cause him stress in Europe, so I waited until we got to Nigeria.”
Mrs. Igiebor expressed frustration at her suffering being overlooked and defended her actions as a form of speaking out after years of hardship. The Nigeria Immigration Service has initiated an investigation into the incident, noting that her actions could violate Section 10(b) of the Immigration Act 2015, which prohibits the willful destruction of Nigerian travel documents and stipulates penalties for such offenses.
