To some couples in major cities across Nigeria, marriage is nothing but a burden, hence the increasing rate of divorce in recent times.
A 39-year-old estate agent Ibukun Oluwadamilare, has been dragged to court by the mother of his three children in order to force him to legalise their union. But Ibukun told the court that the woman, 33-year-old Adesuwa, is his "wayward" wife.
Earlier, Adesuwa had informed the court that she mistakenly got pregnant for lbukun in 2000, and he has refused to pay her bride price even after three children. Adesuwa said what really informed her decision to approach the court was to make her husband come to her village in Edo State and marry her according to the custom and tradition of their land.
She also claimed that lbukun always accused her of dating young men and capitalised on the situation to abuse her. Therefore, she said her husband always monitors her movement and does not give her peace of mind. According to her, “There was a day he beat me at a bus top and tore my clothes to shreds. I left there stark naked.”
In his own argument, lbukun informed the court that he got married to Adesuwa in the year 2000 and the union is blessed with three children, adding that Adesuwa had two children from her previous marriage.
He however gave a graphic description of a wayward lifestyle led by the woman he calls his wife. According to him, “Whenever she comes back at night from an outing, I always perceive sperm odour and she always returns home with pink lips, which indicated that a man have rough handle her and also kissed her lips.”
He also complained that his wife packed out of his house four years ago after she gave birth to their last born, adding that Adesuwa suddenly became uncontrollable, alleging that she went to lodge in a hotel located somewhere in lju-lshaga area of Lagos.
Ibukun however pleaded that the court should not dissolve the marriage, claiming that he still loves his wife.
Due to their conflicting claims, Emmanuel Shokunle, President of the Grade A Customary Court, sitting in Agege Lagos, adjourned the case till October 22.

Any man who doesn't discipline his wife and make her know that he's the man will have trouble. Many young wives dont deserve soft hand at all.... TUNDE

ReplyDeleteThe husband is a lazy bone who cant pay a bride price, so d woman is free to help her self wit anotherman.... Ms K
ReplyDeleteMust you force yourself on a man?
DeleteFor pleading with the court not to dissolve the marriage, the man is parasitic to the wife who goes about in the night making illegal money via prostitution and yet the husband could not do anything about it.
ReplyDeleteThis is no marriage at all where the man depends on the wife for survival and the wife at night prostitutes about.

ReplyDeleteI AM JESUS I HAVE HEARD ALL YOU SAID AND WRIITEN ABOUT ME, Some people do not belife i came to save the WORLD. Everything you see happen now is what I talked about in Matt.24:4-8. For the muslim religion any other religion besides CHRISTIANITY and living a HOLY LIFE FOR JESUS, i want to let you know that there is nobody who has died matured has entered into HEAVEN exccept children and infants because they are innocent. Well watched this to confirm http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=UeomAe8l0_A. For those of you who know me and do not want to identity with me but following after many false teachings and making religous church instead of a preparatory church to prepare people for heaven. Watch this
