Since my husband joined Ekiti State politics in 2007, he has become fetish; he visits herbalists and does strange things, like buying white dishes and clay pots.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI lost my last pregnancy because my husband massaged my belly in pretence that he wanted to know how the unborn child was doing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFive minutes after that I had a miscarriage which almost cost me my life. I have been having terrible dreams and revelations that my husband is up to something\u201c, she said.<\/p>\n<p>Owoyomi urged the court to grant her the custody of the two children of the union, adding that she could not continue to remain married to\u00a0her husband.<\/p>\n<p>Isreal, 43, denied the allegations and pleaded that the marriage should not be dissolved. He admitted that when he had a spiritual attack, he only visited a church and not an herbalist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince my wife joined Mountain of Fire Church, her ways of thinking, attitude and perception about me changed negatively. She regarded me a sinner, and will never see anything good in whatever I say or do, \u201c he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Court\u2019s President, Alhaja A. I. Olorunimbe asked the embattled couple to maintain peace, advising Israel to seek for forgiveness from his wife before her judgement.<\/p>\n<p>Olorunimbe adjourned the case till Jan. 23,\u00a0next year,\u00a0for further hearing.
