…She has contracted HIV —Husband

A woman, Mrs Tabitha Iliya, has dragged her husband, Iliya Yaran, to an Upper Customary Court sitting at Daura Road, Kaduna, Kaduna State, praying for divorce over lack of love.

Tabitha, a mother of six, told the court that her husband had failed in providing for the family, a situation that made her cheat on him in order to get fund to purchase their daughter’s drugs.

She told the court that she had stopped sleeping with her husband who usually returned home every three months due to the nature of his work since her intimacy with the other man.

She explained that she had also suffered verbal and physical abuse from her husband, which resulted to her packing out of her matrimonial home for over a year now.

Tabitha stated, “One day, my friend, Esther, asked me to accompany her to a bar, where she was going to meet someone, and I followed her.

“While sitting and gisting, my husband and his friend came to the bar and he started calling me a prostitute and even called one of our sons on phone to come and see what I was doing.”

She said that she left her husband’s house three days after the incident due to constant insults and his demand that she pack out of his house.

The plaintiff stated that she rented a room in another area, but that her husband kept threatening her and even tried to poison her through diabolical means.

She, therefore, prayed the court to dissolve their marriage so that she can have peace of mind.

The judge, Patience Musa, asked Yaran to cross-examine his wife, who then asked her if she had contracted HIV and she answered in the affirmative.

When asked where she got it from, she said it was from God, adding that she no longer loved her husband.

The judge then adjourned the case.

However, shortly after the adjournment, the husband threatened his wife in court, saying she is still his wife and if he catches her with another man again, she will have herself to blame.

The judge quickly intervened and said the court had recorded his threat, adding that if anything happens to the wife, he would be held responsible.

Grade A Customary Court, sitting at Mapo, Ibadan, Oyo State, has adjourned until November 24, for further hearing on the divorce suit brought before it by a man, Anjorin, against his wife, Omolabake, whom he accused of irresponsibility, barreness, constant fight and disobedience.

Anjorin stated that their 8-year-old marriage had produced no child because his wife was barren. He also said that Omolabake was in the habit of flouting his orders.

The plaintiff added that the defendant was fond of going out without his consent while she always abandoned her duties in the home.

The plaintiff further said that he regarded the defendant as a heathen since she refused to pray.

Anjorin, therefore, prayed for the dissolution of their wedlock.

Omolabake denied all the allegations brought against her.

She conceded to divorce.

Anjorin, in his evidence, said, “I got married to my wife in 2017, but I did not pay her bride price. “Unfortunately, our 8-year-old union has not produced any child.

“My wife has made our relationship non-interesting to me because of her atrocities.

“Omolabake has refused to be submissive to me. She plans to usurp my position as head of the home.

“My wife flouts my instructions at will and would dare that I did my worst.

“She abandoned her duty of keeping the home.

“My wife refused to do the house chores and always left our home unkempt.

“I took up the responsibility of doing the house chores, but my wife remained ungrateful.

“Omolabake took to leaving home without my consent and would return whenever it pleased her.

“The more I showed my displeasure at this, the worse she became.

“She fights me any time I complain of her misbehaviour.

“My wife is a heathen.

She does not observe the prayer hours as it is expected of her as a Muslim.

“My lord, I am not happy in our marriage because Omolabake has refused that I have rest of mind.

“I pray that the court rule that we go our different ways.”

The president of the court, Mrs S.M. Akintayo, adjourned the case.

…He chose to take care of me despite knowing I have another man —Woman

For nine months, a 27-year-old man of Lusaka’s Kanyama compound, Zambia, lived with excitement as he prepared to become a father.

Timothy Banda was convinced that his girlfriend, 22-year-old Tina Kabonde, was carrying his child and out of love, he supported her throughout the nine months of pregnancy.

Banda worked tirelessly to ensure his suppose baby had clothes, baby items and even gave Kabonde money to make sure she was comfortable throughout.

However, Banda did not know that the story he was told was far from the truth.

According to Real Times, just a month after the baby was born, Banda’s world came crashing down when he saw another man at Kabonde’s house, carrying groceries and baby supplies.

When Banda asked Kabonde who the man was, Kabonde and her family confessed that the baby Banda had been preparing for was not his.

Heartbroken and angry, Banda decided to take the matter to the Kanyama local court where he demanded that Kabonde and her family repay him all he spent on her.

“I do not want to argue with this family. They are heartless. All I want is for them to give me back the money I spent on the child,” he said.

Meanwhile, Kabonde told the court that she never told Banda the pregnancy was his but claimed he chose to help her out of his own will because he wanted to marry her.

“He knew I had another man. He is just upset because I refused to marry him,” she defended herself.

When the case was heard before the magistrate, Esther Mulomba, the court found that Kabonde had acted unfairly by accepting Banda’s help while knowing the child belonged to another man.

The court ordered Kabonde to compensate Banda for all the money he spent during her pregnancy.
