Housewife Shaves Hair To Mourn Husband Alive After Being Caught Sleeping With Lover
MICHAEL AKINOLA
A housewife, Mrs Oluwagbemisola Akodu, did the unthinkable after her husband, Ebenezer Akodu, caught her with her lover in their matrimonial home, as she shaved her hair claiming that she was a widow while the husband is still alive
P.M.EXPRESS report that the embattled husband, Ebenezer has approached Oja Oba/Mapo Customary Court, Mapo, Ibadan, Oyo State, seeking for the dissolution of his six-year old marriage with his wife, Oluwagbemisola.
He alleged in the divorce suit that his wife was committing adultery and explained before the Court that his wife went back into a relationship with her ex-lover a few months after she got married to him.
The embittered husband said initially, he refused to believe all information people gave him about his wife’s adulterous acts until he caught her red-handed and even infected him with STDs.
He told the Court he wanted his wife out of his house and life before she would kill him.
His wife, Oluwagbemisola, refused to come to Court after being served a Court summon and hearing.
Ebenezer in his testimony stated thus: “My lord, my wife has never been committed to our marriage. He has been unfaithful to me since we got married”.
“I did all that I could to make Oluwagbemisola comfortable and happy, but she rewarded me by making my life hellish and exposing me to death.”
“My wife made me an object of ridicule among my friends and those in our neigbhourhood.”
“My lord, my wife went back into relationship with her ex-lover a few months into our marriage.News about her adulterous act had come to me from different quarters but I chose not to believe these because I trusted her.”
“I asked her but she denied and I believed her.My friends and neighbours did all they could to convince me of my wife’s atrocities but I refused to listen to them.”
“My lord, I almost collapsed the day I caught Oluwagbemisola in a compromising position with her ex-lover in our apartment.”
“I discovered she had infected me with STD after this.I spent through the nose treating this infection at the hospital apart from the humiliation I faced treating it.I became an object of ridicule before my friends and neighbours, who had earlier informed me of Oluwagbemisola’s immoral behaviour.”
“My lord, rather than show a sign of remorse, Oluwagbemisola became defiant.She had her hair shaved and told whoever cared to listen that she was mourning me. According to her, as far as she’s concerned, I do not exist. She told me I was not better than a dead man.”
“I reported to her parents and they called us to a meeting but she refused to attend.My lord, it is obvious if I continue with in this marriage with my wife I will soon die. Oluwagbemisola does not wish me well, she wants me dead.”
“I, therefore, plead with this Court to stop our marriage and grant me custody of our two children, “the plaintiff begged.
The Court President, Chief Ademola Odunade, stated that it was obvious Oluwagbemisola was no longer interested in their marriage considering the fact that she made no appearance in Court after being served two summons.
In his judgement, the Court President dissolved their marriage and granted custody of their two children to the plaintiff.
