Actress Mercy Aigbe files restraining order against husband

Nollywood actress Mercy Aigbe seems not to be taking the recent incident of battery leveled against her husband lightly as days after she tabled her case before the Lagos Ministry of Women Affairs for investigation, the mother of two has filed a one-mile restraining order against husband, Lanre Gentry.

The restraining order with suit number: FC/AL/25/2017 signed by Chief Magistrate Abegunde Davies of the Ikeja Magistrates court which has reportedly been served to Lanre Gentry Tuesday evening, stipulates that he is restrained from going anywhere within a one-mile radius of the applicant and the two children in her custody.

There are also reports that Lanre Gentry may be prosecuted by the Lagos State Government which has begun investigations into allegations of battery leveled against him by his wife.

During the weekend, a CT scan conducted at St. Solomon Health Care Limited showed that Mercy suffered a head fracture after she was battered by her husband.

The actress had to go through the check-up for swellings or fractures within the head, usually caused by blunt force trauma and the conclusion of the CT scan reveals that Mercy suffered fracture on her left orbit with hermeation of orbital fat, medial rectus and left interior oblique muscles.
