The Customary Court sitting in Mapo, Ibadan, Oyo State, has dissolved the 13-year marriage between a teacher, Durojaye Akingbade and another teacher, Olabisi, over denial of sex by the wife for three years.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the president of the Court Mrs. S.M. Akintayo, dissolved the marriage and declared that the petitioner, Akingbade, no longer wanted to continue with the union and the Court would not force him to stay.
The Court also ordered both parties to go their separate ways for the sake of peace and ordered that the wife, Olabisi, should not harass, threaten, or interfere in Akingbade’s life from now on.
The embittered husband, Akingbade, testified that his wife stopped listening to him despite fulfilling his responsibilities, adding that their home had been full of problems since Olabisi moved in as his wife.
He also claimed that she stopped cooking for him and their three children, forcing the children to rely on food from relatives.
Most seriously, she had been denying him sex for the past three years, which caused even more problems in their marriage while Olabisi refused to leave his house and he cut off the electricity supply to her apartment.
In her defence, Olabisi, who is also a teacher, denied most of her husband’s claims and described Akingbade as a liar and a womanizer, saying he often did what his friends suggested, including having sex whenever and wherever they wanted.
She said she stopped being intimate with him after he accused her of giving him an infection and said his younger brother died of Aids, adding that Akingbade got married to three other women between 2020 and 2024 without telling her.
She also mentioned the fact that he allows his mother to tell him what to do in the marriage without having a say of his own, which made her to get fed up of the marriage and suggested they go their separate ways.
Thus, the Court dissolved the marriage and asked the parties to go their separate ways in the interest of peace.
