Nollywood actress Regina Chukwu, has advised men against verbally abusing women.

The movie star, via her Instagram page, stated that there is little to no difference between verbally abusing a woman and physically abusing her.

According to her, the insults echo in places that apology cannot get to, stating that it will damage the woman's heart, her confidence, and her peace.

Emphasizing the disadvantage of verbally abusing a woman, she stressed that it would affect the woman's peace, which will change her version forever.

She wrote:
"Verbally abusing your woman is just as bad as hitting her, because those words echo in places no apology can reach. You might not leave marks on her skin, but you’ll leave damage on her heart, her confidence, and her peace. And once a woman’s peace is gone, you’ll never get the same version of her again."
