Up and coming Nigerian artiste, Ehije Ebvodaghe aka Rush, has been accused of battering his girlfriend, Kelly Barlow, for the third time.

Kelly made the accusation, today, shortly after she was brutalized by the artiste. According to a chat between the duo, Rush accused Kelly of disrespecting him and said he had to teach her a lesson.

However, Kelly, who said her door was broken by Rush, before being battered in the presence of her sister, revealed that the usual cause of the violence was her insistence that he should stop defending his friends against her.

She added that he always begs for forgiveness anytime he beats her and, last night, he still talked about settling down and having kids with her. Kelly, who insisted that she is done with the relationship, said the recent incident took place, today, in Surulere, weeks after beating her in Ajah.
