My wife brings her lover into our bedroom for sex, a 35-year-old
unemployed man, Tayo Owoloye, on Monday told an Igando Customary
Court in Lagos.

Owoloye is in court seeking to end his 11-year-old marriage to
his wife Modinat.

Tayo said that their 11-year-old daughter used to tell him that
her mother brings a man home and that she used to see them making
love .

“I once saw her love chat on whatsApp with a man called Timothy,
when I queried her, she quickly deleted those messages. I reported
her to her two eldest sisters.

“She is also having affairs with another man, called
Stanley.

“Modinat came to my mother’s burial in Ondo State and left that
same day, I later discovered that she came with Stanley and both of
them lodged in a hotel that day.

“I was still in my village when Modinat called that she was sick
and admitted, I rushed to Lagos the following day and I was told by
the nurses that a man came to pass the night with her whom I later
discovered to be Stanley.

“When I confronted Stanley, he confessed that he is in a
relationship with my wife but begged for forgiveness.

“I decided to know more about Stanley so I searched for him on
facebook, I saw pictures of him and my wife which was taken inside
our bedroom and on our bed.”

Owoloye presented to the court, printed pictures from Stanley’s
facebook page, as evidence.

The petitioner said that he moved out of their matrimonial home
when his wife said she needed space.

“There was a day we had misunderstanding and she got me
arrested; at the police station I was asked to give an undertaking
that I will not return to my house, till today I have not gone
home.

“Two weeks after I left the house, my wife changed her marital
status on Facebook from married to divorce and also changed her
surname to her maiden name.

“Our neighbours called to tell me that Stanley always comes to
pass the night in our house, confirming our 11-year-old daughter’s
earlier affirmation.”

According to him, Modinat has been denying him sex since
December, 2018.

The husband said that Modinat was always threatening his life
with knife and that he was afraid as she may carry out her threat
one day.

However, the respondent, Modinat, who welcomed the divorce suit,
also accused her husband of infidelity.

“My husband had been cheating on me without my knowledge; I got
to know last week when I went to his family house, where I met his
new wife and a baby of about six month old.”

The 30-year-old trader denied having affairs with Timothy and
Stanley.

“I sell watermelon; Timothy is my customer while Stanley comes
to assist me in my shop.

“The picture of Stanley and I that my husband saw on social
media was taken in the sitting room not bedroom as he claimed.

“Stanley came to stay with me when I was admitted at the
hospital because my husband travelled for his mother’s burial and
there was nobody to stay with me.”

The mother of three said that her husband had turned her into a
punching bag.

“My husband is a wife beater, he once beat me that I lost a
pregnancy, and I have several scars on my body due to his frequent
beatings.

“On one fateful day, he beat me, tore my clothes and pushed me
out of the house naked.

“Our neighbours clothed me, I went to the police station to
report the matter and he was invited.

“When the police asked me what I wanted, I said I needed space,
that he should leave the house for me for some time upon which he
was asked to give an undertaking that he would give me space as I
requested.”

Modinat said she denied her husband sex because, “I don’t have
feelings for him anymore.”

The Court’s President, Mr Adeniyi Koledoye, after listening to
the estranged couple, urged them to maintain peace and adjourned
the case until September 26, for judgment
