Man Seeks To Dump Childless Wife Over Clubbing & Drunkenness
Posted on July 7, 2025
A man, Olutade, has filed a suit against his childless wife, Michelle, before a Grade A Customary Court, Mapo, Ibadan, Oyo State, seeking for the dissolution of their marriage on the grounds of irresponsibility, constant clubbing and drunkenness.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the embittered Olutade told the Court that his greatest mistake in life was getting married to Michelle, who is also childless.
The embattled Olutade also told the Court that Michelle’s lifestyle was far from that of a virtuous woman; she lacked the ability to run a smooth home and cared less about his well-being having failed to give him the needed attention.
He added that she showed no concern that she is yet to bear a child and that she is ageing by the day, as the only thing his wife found appealing was clubbing.
“Michelle would abandon me at home, go clubbing, and would return home in the deep of the night drunk. My marriage to her had brought me nothing but shame. Therefore, I prayed for the dissolution of the union.”
Olutade, in his evidence, said: “I met and got married to my wife in Lagos. Her family members demanded for N25,000 as her bride price, which I gladly paid”.
“I realised that I made a big mistake venturing into marriage with my wife a few weeks after we tied the nuptial knot. Michelle is irresponsible and lacks the ability to run a home successfully.”
“Our home always looks untidy and unwelcoming because my wife turns the place upside down.
She also fails to attend to my well-being. I do not feed and live well due to her absence from home almost all the time.”
“My wife prefers to be in the company of her friends, who are morally bankrupt than stay at home with me.
We have been married for some years, but we are without children. Michelle cares less that she is barren and ageing. All that she is interested in is clubbing. She always returns home in the middle of the night, dead drunk.”
“The more I complained, the worse she became. She has made me a laughing stock in our neighbourhood. My lord, I can no longer tolerate my wife’s misbehaviour. All I pray for is divorce.”
However, Michelle refused to make an appearance in Court despite being served court summons.
The President of the Court, Mrs. S.M Akintayo, adjourned the case for judgment.
