My husband doesn’t go to church – Woman seeks end to marriage in Oyo court

A woman, Adenike Oladejo, has asked an Idi-Ogungun Customary Court,

Agodi Ibadan, to dissolve her marriage, citing the husband’s refusal to go to church.

Adenike and Samuel Oladejo are married for 9 years.

Adenike, while testifying in court on Friday, said she cried on a daily basis because of the kind of life her husband was living.

She said her husband was a drunk and always came home late, adding that the plaintiff did not care about her welfare and the only child of the marriage.

She further described the husband as “a stubborn and irresponsible family head who preferred spending his money on alcohol.

“I regret marrying him because my parents warned me not to marry him but I did not obey them due to the blind love I had for him.

“I pleaded with him on many occasions to be going to Church, with the aim of repenting from his bad ways of life but he refused.
