Court dissolves marriage over infidelity, as sex-starved housewife seeks divorce

Sex discretion has proved to be at the heart of the marriages of two housewives in different parts of the country.

In Nasarawa State, for instance, a housewife, Sa’adatu Musa, on Monday begged a Mararaba Upper Area Court to dissolve her marriage to her husband, Dembe for allegedly denying her sex.

Sa’adatu told the court that Dembe denies her sex, by only having sex with her once in four months.

She said that as a result of his inconsistent sex with her, she does not get sexual satisfaction.

Sa’adatu said she married Dembe sometime in 2015 and that the union has not produced any child.

She pleaded with the court to dissolve the marriage, saying that there was no longer love in the union as nothing could bring them together again since he could not satisfy her sexual needs.

The respondent, Dembe, however, denied the allegations.

The judge, Mr Ibrahim Shekarau, adjourned the case to October 29 to allow the parties to settle out of court.

Meanwhile, a Grade “C’’ Customary Court sitting in Iseyin on Monday, dissolved a four-year-old union between Adewale and Shade Ajala, over alleged infidelity.

Shade had approached the court in July seeking dissolution, alleging infidelity and dereliction of marital duties by Adewale.

Adewale, who did not refute his wife’s claims, appealed to the court to help beg his wife for forgiveness and reconciliation during the trial.

Delivering judgment on the matter, the President of the Court, Chief Adelodun Raheem, said all efforts to settle the matter did not yield results.

He explained that the matter had gone beyond redemption, more so as the union had not produced any child.

Raheem, thereafter, dissolved the union accordingly and urged both parties to maintain peace.
