A 30-year-old woman, Mrs. Aminat Shuaib, recently pleaded with an Agege Customary Court, in Lagos, to dissolve her marriage of seven years.
The mother of two accused her husband, Mr. Haruna Shuaibu, of not caring for her, being troublesome and constantly beating her.
“He is no more caring and catering my children and I. He also beats me up at the slightest provocation. There was a day he tore my dress in the public due to a fight that issued between us. Apart from that, he lied to me that he wasn’t married before, whereas he was.”
“When I was delivered of our first child, he didn’t pay for the hospital bills; neither did he contribute money for the naming ceremony. I am tired of the marriage, I want a divorce,” Aminat pleaded.
Haruna made no effort to refute the allegations levelled against him.
He said, “She throws my belongings out anytime we have a quarrel because she rented the house in her name. Now, she has finally thrown me out of the house under the pretence that she is tired of the marriage, whereas her former husband wants her back.
“I don’t want any trouble, all I want is for her to allow me to take the rest of my things out and that includes the curtains, television set, video player and the fridge.”
The president of the court, Emmanuel Sokunle, advised them to be patient and try to reconcile. The case was adjourned till August 29
