Woman seeks marriage dissolution over 7-year denial of sex.
A housewife, Jelila
Nurudeen, on Friday asked an Ojaoba Sharia Court, Ibadan, to put an end
to the union with her husband, Nurudeen Olanrewaju, on grounds of sexual
starvation for over seven years.
The mother of three in her petition alleged that her husband was
subjecting her to emotional torture by starving her of sex for seven
years.
“My lord, all the interventions made so far by this court has yielded no
results as Olanrewaju has turned no new leaf.
“I may soon run mad if the court fails to separate us, because I can no
longer withstand seven years of sexual drought.
“Should I start visiting the homes of some of the committee members set
up to reconcile us to meet my sexual desire?
“Please I am ready to walk away from this union because Olanrewaju has
already remarried to another wife, who is now satisfying his emotional
desire,” Jelila explained.
However, Olanrewaju, who denied the allegation, rejected the divorce
suit.
Olanrewaju who works at Nigeria Tubacco Company Ibadan, said that he has
been living happily with Jelila and promised to still make his wife
happy.
President of the court, Sheikh Ahamad Tiamiyu, advised Jelila to give
peace a chance by allowing the committee raised on the matter to do
their work.
Tiamiyu adjourned the case till Nov. 17, for progress report.
