Nigerian rapper and activist Ruggedman has shared his thoughts on domestic violence, emphasizing the importance of walking away from toxic situations rather than resorting to violence.
In a recent interview with TVC, Ruggedman revealed his approach to handling conflicts in relationships, stating that provocations leading to thoughts of violence are enough reason to end things.
“I always tell any woman I intend to date that if she pushes me to the level where I think of hitting her, then it’s over,” he said. “For me to want to date someone, it means I’ve told her everything that triggers me. So, for you to now push that, it means you’re poking me. I would rather walk away than hit the person.”
The rapper also recounted a personal experience where he ended a relationship after being publicly disrespected during an argument, despite asking his partner to wait until they were in private to resolve the issue.
Ruggedman further highlighted the dangers of staying in abusive relationships, pointing out that many victims ignore red flags due to personal benefits or fear of public opinion. “It’s better to leave because if you die in an abusive relationship, people will still talk,” he warned.
The artist’s message serves as a reminder of the importance of self-control and the need to prioritize safety and respect in relationships.
