A commercial driver, Laisi Ajibade,has prayed an Ado-Ekiti Customary Court to dissolve his 22-year-old marriage to his wife , Folake over threats to cut off his manhood.
The 48-year-old accused Folake of dishonesty and desertion.
“She threatens to kill me whenever we have any misunderstanding; I am scared of living under the same roof with her,” he stated.
Ajibade told the court that he did not formally contract the marriage that was already blessed with four children.
“My Lord, my wife is not a trustworthy person, she deserted me for months and went to build her own house without my knowledge and consent.”
The President of the Court, Mrs. Olayinka Akomolede, after hearing the petitioner’s testimony, adjourned the case to Feb. 8, for further hearing.
