A man, who approached an Igando Customary Court for the dissolution of his 10-years old marriage over wife’s penchant for stealing and infidelity, this Thursday had his plea granted by the President of the court.
Mr Mutiu Bamgbose, A 45-year-old businessman accused his wife, Aliyah of stealing and Infidelity.
Delivering judgement the President of the Court, Mr Adeniyi Koledoye held that it was obvious from available testimony and the respondent’s refusal to appear in court that the marriage had hit the rocks
The respondent refused to honour court processes despite being served several times throughout the duration of the case.
The court in his pronouncement stated that the marriage between Mr Mutiu and Mrs Aliyah Bamgbose, stands dissolved.
Koledoye gave custody of the twin (girls) to the respondent and ordered Bamgbose to be pay N10,000 monthly for their feeding, while giving the man custody of the male child.
Bamgbose had told the court:
my wife is a thief, she is not always satisfied with what I give her, she keeps stealing my money at will.
The most painful one was when she stole my N3 million and squandered it.
Because of her habit, I started keeping my money in the ceiling but she will still enter the ceiling and steal it.
When I could no longer condole it, I opened a bank account and she becomes angry and makes life miserable for me.
It was obvious that my wife does not love me, she is just after my money.
