My Wife Stopped Loving Me After I Lost My Job – Husband

Grade A Customary Court, Mapo, Ibadan, Oyo State, has ended the relationship between a couple, Salewa and Quadri on the accounts of lack of love and care, and irreconcilable differences.

Salewa stated that Quadri was promiscuous and always brought his lovers to their home.

She further said that he was violent and in the habit of beating and harming her any time she complained of his immoral lifestyle.

The plaintiff stated that she derived no joy in her marriage and thus prayed that their wedlock be dissolved.

She begged the court for custody of their children and also requested an order restraining her husband from threatening her and interfering with her private life.

Quadri pleaded not guilty to the allegations brought against him.

He agreed to divorce but refused that his wife had custody of their children.

Salewa in her evidence said: “My husband and I did not have a customary marriage. We held introduction ceremony, but he did not pay my bride price.
