Popular radio presenter, Benny Ark has revealed for the
first time, why he married his wife, Ese Walter who was involved in an alleged
affair with a popular Abuja Pastor and later came out to reveal it to the
world. Benny says she did it so that she could have her peace back and not
because she was the boldest person in the country. Interestingly, Ese had tried
to reach out to the other party before coming all out, but some people told
her, some men where untouchable, hence her action. Below is what Benny Ark told
The Sun about the alleged affair and why he married her even when some people felt otherwise.

“Amazingly, the people around us were supportive and
understanding. It was some outsiders who were not privy to a whole lot of stuff
that were making some kind of remarks. But the truth is, we were just friends
when she told me about what happened. I was pained and hurt because here was a
man who I held in high esteem. I only told her to do what she had to do because
she felt like she was enslaved by something she didn’t have control over. And
when she tried to reach out for disclosure that would have led to her healing,
she was treated badly by some people who sent the message that some person is
untouchable.

“I can tell you that she reached out not once or twice. In
the end, she did what she did for her peace of mind and to encourage others who
are in a similar situation. She opened up not because she is the boldest
person; she knew that she was taking a big risk. But she opened up because she
is someone who has a conscience and will not stand for something wrong. Her
making that bold move endeared her to me. When she came out with the truth, I
believed her, having heard the same story two or three times from other women.
When she spoke out, she was attacked. But I believe that with her simple act of
speaking the truth, she not only liberated herself but also other women in a
similar situation.”
