A married woman living with her husband in Lagos, has divorced the man after he did something she hated to their daughter.<\/p>\n

An Agege Customary Court, Lagos, on Wednesday dissolved the 10-year marriage between Adebisi and her husband, Olatunji Abiodun, over constant battering by the husband and his audacity to give their daughter tribal marks.<\/p>\n

NAN reprts that Adebisi had on March 31, 2016, approached the court seeking the dissolution of the marriage, also said the husband was unfaithful and irresponsible.<\/p>\n

The President of the court, Mr Phillips Williams, who gave the verdict, said the marriage had broken down irretrievably.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce the two parties have consented to the dissolution of their marriage, then there is evidence that the relationship has broken down irretrievably.<\/p>\n

\u201cTherefore, the marriage between you is hereby dissolved and any party who may feel dissatisfied with this judgment can appeal within the next 30 days,\u201d he ruled.<\/p>\n

Adebisi had earlier told the court that her husband for 10 years had been harassing him everywhere.<\/p>\n

\u201cl seek dissolution of this marriage so that my husband can stop harassing me anywhere he sees me.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want him to be responsible for the children\u2019s upkeep and education.\u201d<\/p>\n

She described her husband as a drunkard and as a secret cult member.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe lured my daughter to his village on the pretext of visiting his parents and gave her tribal marks on her face without my consent.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can no longer bear the pains of constant beating and the hardships the marriage is going through.<\/p>\n

\u201c l am fed up with his unfaithful and adulterous ways,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Olatunji, a middle-aged man and a father of two, also consented to the dissolution of the marriage.<\/p>\n

He alleged that the petitioner was not submissive and lacked manners, saying she does not dress like a married woman.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy wife likes wearing skimpy and indecent clothes which l do not like and have complained several times, but she refused to change.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
