The news of the domestic violence that almost led to Gloria's death was brought to the fore by Woman Rights Activist, Dr Joe Okhei-Odumakin who made sure Nigerians and the world were of the case. She took it up and made sure the case was taken to a court of law with the aim of making the man pay for his crimes.
