In her words:

"We got married on January 30, 2017, at the Dekalb County Courthouse, the witnesses are there, the records are also there, and I am going to base on this evidence to pursue legal action for abandoning our legal marriage to live with another woman illegally.
"It has been a pain I bore all these years, I have tried to be reasonable to understand why he abandoned our marriage without a divorce, but he has been evading me, that is why I decided to call his attention, pending when he decides to be reasonable or face the consequences of his actions in marriage court in the US."
