ABUJA – A housewife, Aisha Dauda, 29, on Thursday pleaded with a Karu Grade 1 Area Court in Abuja to dissolve her marriage, citing her husband’s reckless lifestyle as reason for seeking divorce.
Aisha said that their marriage was contracted on Dec. 21, 2014, at Angwan Sherite Kabusa, Abuja, according to Islamic rites.
She told the court that her husband’s lifestyle was unendurable which makes him misbehave.
“My husband does not live a good life; he goes out and comes back anytime he pleases.
“I have no interest in the marriage any longer and I plead with this honourable court to dissolve the marriage.
“I am willing to return his pride price and I will stay out of his life since I don’t have any child with him.
However, the respondent, Dauda Mukaila, 40, denied the allegations, describing the claims as “baseless and false.”
“I have two wives living with me in Kabusa before I married her, but she left my house on Jan. 25, 2015 to an unknown destination.

“Since she want to divorce me, I pray the court to order her to pay me N120,000 as expenses incurred during our marriage procedure, ” he added.
The Presiding Judge, Hassan Ishaq adjourned the case till April 9 for judgment.(NAN)
