A man identified as Timisiyu Adegoke has approached a customary court in Ibadan seeking a divorce from his wife of 11 years, Modupe.
According to Adegoke, his wife sends nudes to her lovers on social media. He also brought evidence to court.
The court’s President, Chief Henry Agbaje, annulled the union citing irreconcilable differences.
“The court is not happy that marriages are collapsing, but wherever there is a problem, the court will not hesitate to take appropriate action.
“Therefore, the union between the duo has henceforth ceased to be.
“The custody of the children is granted to Modupe and Tirimisiyu shall pay a monthly allowance of N4000 each for the feeding of the two children in addition to being responsible for their education and other welfare,” he said.
Modupe on her part had petitioned the court saying her husband is irresponsible and hits her.
“Ever since I married him, I have not seen or enjoyed any care or love as he deliberately refused to take up his responsibility. Worst still, Tirimisiyu does not hesitate to punch me at any given opportunity. He is such a difficult spouse to live with as my life means nothing to him.”
The respondent, however, denied the allegations saying;
“My Lord, the major cause of conflict between Modupe and I is her infidelity and the fact that she cannot be trusted. I have caught her on many occasions in adulterous acts and I have reported same to relatives, friends and neighbours.
However, Modupe is smarter than me because I had no evidence to show the people I reported her to.
These are the two sophisticated phones (tendered in court) with which she communicates with her lovers.

“My Lord, you will see various love messages, terrible pictures, description of how they enjoyed their
romantic times, sexual intercourse and all sorts in the phones. She is free to go, I do not want her again as a wife,” he said.
