Man Settles Wife With N5m, Car, N100,000 Monthly Allowance To Quit Marriage

[FlyJ]

A businessman, Augustine Anyia, on Wednesday, pleaded with a Lagos Customary Court, sitting at Agege, to dissolve his seven-year-old marriage to his wife, Nneka, due to lack of care, lesbianism and threat to his life.

 

“My wife is quarrelsome and quick to violence, especially when she demands for money or anything and l don’t respond to on time,” he said.

 

The petitioner told the court that he married the respondent after six months of courtship on his return from the United States.

 

“There has been no peace of mind in this marriage: She is a party freak and does not have any iota of respect for me,’’ he said.

 

Augustine also alleged that the respondent engages in lesbianism with her friends.

 

“I see all sorts of pictures of Unclad women with my wife sent to my phone by her friends and informing me about their acts of lesbianism and asking me to stay away from her,’’ he said.

 

The petitioner told the court that on two different occasions, he moved out of his house due to threats to his life.

 

“Whenever we have any misunderstanding, she always threatens to kill me.

 

“The stress is unbearable; there is no longer peace of mind in this loveless marriage,” he said.

 

The petitioner also alleged that his wife reported him at a police station and when he was summoned, the respondent demanded to be paid off by her husband as she was fed up with the marriage.

 

“My wife demanded for a sum of N5 million, a car, N100,000 monthly allowance for the children and to be responsible for the children’s school fees.

 

“ l agreed to these and I gave her all that she requested for,’’ he said.

 

She moved out of the house sometimes in October 2016 and had refused me access to the children till date.

 

The petitioner, who described his wife as “a troublesome and mischievous person” pleaded with the court to dissolve the marriage because he was no longer interested in the union.

 

He also prayed the court to grant him access to his two children.

 

The respondent was, however, not present during the proceedings in court.

 

The court’s President, Mr Philip Williams, adjourned the case till June 22 for further hearing.

Na wa o...

This is the real superstory. Hmmm... best not to judge till both sides have been heard but nne... if the claims are true then I do hope she has herself ready a good defence attorney.

 

It's absolutely not cool to be married and then do the sort of things she was accused of engaging in with other girls.

 

Truth is, I am a firm believer in making up one's mind and sticking it through to the end. It is absolutely unfair to subject another to the consequences of one's inability to live one's truth. In my opinion, it is a fraud. A bit harsh I know but the truth hurts sometimes...

Lol. Are you minding all these stories? Divorce proceedings are usually comedy. It is a competition of who can paint the other Black the most. Either it is to get alimony or child custody. I don't know why people can't peacefully divorce without dragging themselves through mud.
