Husband accuses wife of sending ‘Badoo boys’ to kill him
A woman, Titilayo Akaba, on Thursday pleaded with a Badagry Customary Court in Topo Garage, to dissolve her marriage to her husband, Maselin Akada.
Titilayo, a food vendor, who resides at Baale Street, Torikoh, Badagry accused Akada of being irresponsible. She also said he is an habitual gossip and liar.
She told the court that one of husband’s lies had made her spend a night in police custody.
“I met Maselin in 1997 and we both married without my parents’ consent because he was 30 years older than me,No dowry was paid and I have three children for him.
“He did not give me rest of mind and he talks too much at his age. Maselin will be rolling on the ground, crying that i have stolen and hidden his documents whereas he is lying.
“My husband went to Area K Police Command in Morogbo to report me that i sent hired killers and badoo boys to kill him. They transferred the case to Badagry Police Station, where i was detained for 24 hours for what i did not do.
“My lord, i don’t have rest of mind staying under the same roof with this man, he is a liar,” she said.
Titilayo pleaded with the court to dissolve her marriage as she is tired and beginning to have restless nights.
She also asked the court to grant her custody of their three children. She claimed that Maselin had become old and was beginning to have vision problems.
Maselin, according to NAN, was absent during the hearing due to unknown reasons
Mr Sakirudeen Adekola, the presiding judge adjourned the case until October 9 for further hearing.
