Court dissolves pastor’s marriage in Ekiti

The 13-year-old marriage between an Ado Ekiti-based pastor, Tope Fajuyagbe and his wife, Abosede, has been dissolved by a Customary Court over the woman’s alleged refusal to join him in his ministry.

Court President, Mr. Joseph Ogunsemi, while delivering his judgment held that the marriage has broken down completely.

Fajuyagbe, who dragged his wife to court, accused her of frequent fighting, refusal to join his ministration, not giving him rest of mind and lack of respect for his family.

The pastor, who is 54, and resides in Olorunda Zone, Ado-Ekiti, told the court they always fight because she did not allow his children from his first wife to live with him.

He said the woman refused to join him in his ministerial work and did not allow him to formalise the marriage, hence he deserted her in December 2015.

The plaintiff described the defendant as a serial troublemaker who never give him and her step children breathing space.

He therefore prayed the court to dissolve the marriage since they have no issue.

But the respondent, Bosede, 48, a resident of Olorunda Central Zone, Ado-Ekiti, said they built a three bedroom flat and moved into the house together.

According to the woman, when they moved to the house, they bought a car for N300,000, he paid N100,000 and she paid N200,000.

Bosede said she left the house after she built another house.
