Ugomma the Notorious Mistress
A True Short Story
Ugomma's Story
This is the true story of Ugomma an African notorious beauty queen. She was married twice both her husbands being polygamous. Her first marriage to Chief Ibeneme lasted barely a year. After committing an abomination with her brother-in-law Oga Mike, she was dragged to the outskirts of Ndiowu town, where they got stripped of their clothes before being subjected to prolonged beating and mandatory twenty-four lashes of a cane on their bare butts.
She was barred from returning to her husband's home in Ndiowu indefinitely, and was eventually handed over to her parents with nothing and without sympathy. In addition, she was ordered to reimburse her husband Chief Ibeneme for the expenditure she had incurred. Her accomplice, Oga Mike, was banned from returning for forty-eight hours.
A few years later after her divorce, she met Chief Obi, whom she married, but after a few months she found herself in a vulnerable position, tragically caught up in a ritual murder orchestrated by her so-called husband, to whom she devoted her life with love and trust.
