ADO-EKITI – A 40-year-old man, Mr Femi Olawale, on Wednesday asked an Ado-Ekiti Customary Court to dissolve his three-and half -year-old marriage to his wife, Funke.
Femi is seeking the dissolution of the marriage on the ground of adultery, threat to life, fraud, and lack of care for their children.
He said different men usually paid his wife visits in her office, and that the wife was after money.
“She does not cook for me and the children,’’ Olawale told the court.
He claimed that his wife usually threatened him by raining curses on him.
The father of two said there was a time the wife went to beat his sister up in her house.
He added that he once kept some money with her and she refused to give it to him when he needed it.
Funke, 34, however, denied the allegations, saying she had never been promiscous.
She said she always prepared her husband’s food likewise her children, contrary to claim by the husband.
She also denied beating her husband’s sister, saying she went to find out why she stopped her husband from taking care of the children.
The Court’s President, Mrs Olayinka Akomolede, adjourned the case till July 9 for judgment. (NAN)
