I found condoms in my wife’s bag
and she could not give a satisfactory explanation
how she came about it,’’ an estranged hubby told
an Ibadan Customary Court just as the court
dissolved the seven-year-old marriage on
Tuesday.
A Mapo Customary Court dissolved the union
between Sikiru Alabi and his wife, Basira, on the
grounds of prostitution and adultery.
Alabi, an automobile mechanic in Popo Yemoja
area of the metropolis had approached the
court, seeking an end to his marriage to Basira, a
hairdresser at Idi Arere area of the city.
The President of the court, Mr Ademola
Odunade, said cheating on the part of a husband
or wife was
deadly’’.He ruled:
It is in view of the circumstances
surrounding the issue at hand that the court
decided to put an end to the relationship
between Alabi and Basira.
Alabi shall take custody of the five and a halfyear-old child produced by the union, while
Basira should be free to see the child in court
anytime she wants.’’
The husband told the court:
Nemesis caught up
with her recently when I met a man on her
deeply engaged in sexual intercourse right in my
house.
I was mad, but Basira quickly pleaded withme, promising not to do it again.
Though, I forgave her, but she is still neck
deep in adultery.’’
Alabi said Basira was also engaged in prostitution
and had continued to rain curses on him and his
relatives for her adultery.
Basira, however, did not deny the allegations,
saying:
It is true that there is no more lovebetween I and Alabi.’’
Basira pleaded with the court to grant her the
custody of the child after dissolving the
marriage. (NAN)
