A Delta State based businessman has dragged his wife before an Asaba High Court, seeking divorce over acts of allegedly sleeping around with men and fighting her husband without shame.
While testifying at the court, the husband said that “my wife wants to kill me, she fights me every day, and she is a harlot. I can no more continue with the marriage for the above reasons and even more.”
The man told the court that because of her sleeping around with other men, he is banned by his tradition to eat her food and she should not even touch his clothes.
The angry husband revealed that he married the lady after the death of his first wife and that he re-married so that his present wife will help bring up his four children that he had with his late wife.
His words: “I married my wife in 1998 and did the church wedding at Catholic Church of Assumption, Zappa, in Asaba. Since then, we have two children; a boy and a girl, but this woman always threatens to kill me, she fights me at every chance… She vowed that she must kill me and she sent all my children packing, I cannot continue with the marriage.
“It came to a climax on January 17, 2016, when she took something and hit my head in an attempt to kill me, so that I would not be able to pursue the divorce case in court, but thank God, her mission did not come to reality as I overcame her plan.As usual with such women, when the judge asked her about the issues raised by the husband, she denied and asked, “what will make me to fight or attempt to kill my husband? We stay in the same house, sleep on the same bed, I am taking good care of him, but I don’t know what is wrong.”
“She is a harlot… I cannot eat her food again because she is a harlot. It is against my tradition and I want the marriage dissolved before she kills me.”
The judge has adjourned the case to February 17, 2016, for judgement.
