A commercial driver, Taiwo Oladepo, yesterday prayed an Agege
Customary Court in Lagos to dissolve his 11-year-old marriage over
alleged lack of care and submission by the woman.
The 35-year-old Mr. Oladepo, father of four, resides at Number 29, Anthony Nwosu, Ileke Estate, Meiran, Lagos.
“My wife is too troublesome; she is stubborn, arrogant and not submissive. She is also lazy and wayward.
“There has been no peace in this marriage; we live like cat and rat,” he told the court.
The petitioner submitted that his wife went out and returned any time she liked, adding that each time he asked her where she had been, she told him: “Go and ask Google’’.
“I am no longer interested in the union,” he submitted.
Responding, Biola, a petty trader, denied the allegations.
She said that the petitioner lacked respect for her and beat her regularly.
“There was a time his friends tried to caution him about his attitude toward me.
“The beating is unbearable but l kept bearing it because of my children,” she said.
She added that her husband had illicit affairs with different women.
She consented to the dissolution of the marriage, but appealed to the court to give her the custody of the children, urging that her husband should be responsible for the children’s education and healthcare.
The Court President, Philip Williams, adjourned the case till January 31, 2017 for judgment.
