A housewife, Mrs Iyabo Odewunmi,
has told an Osogbo Customary Court in Osun State to dissolve her 10-year-old
marriage to her husband, Ojo, over his habit of using her menstrual pads for
ritual purposes.
Iyabo, while complaining that
her husband was a threat to her life and that of her children, said “I
noticed that my menstrual pads had been missing as well as my bras and pants.
When I complained to my
husband, he said nothing. He later promised to buy me new pants and bras.”
She accused her husband of
being diabolical, adding, “my husband has been behaving in a mysterious way in
the last few months and I see this as a threat to my life and that of my
children.”
In his response, Ojo informed
the court that his wife lied against him because she was looking for flimsy
excuses to abandon the marriage.
However, President of the
court, Mrs Temilade Agboola, advised the couple to find means of resolving
their dispute rather than dissolve the marriage and adjourned the case to
November 5, 2013 for judgment.
