A man named Salau Kehinde who was accused of beating his wife told a
Customary Court in Ikorodu, Lagos that he indeed physically abuses his
wife whenever she refuses to have sex with him.
His wife, Shakirat approached the court seeking for dissolution of their
10-year old marriage that has produced two children. This was because
of his continuous assault anytime she returned from work and refused to
have sex because she was either too tired or for other reasons.
According to Vanguard Newspaper the woman requested that the court dissolve their marriage and grant
her custody of the children.
Reacting to the wife’s accusation, Kehinde accepted the claim that he
used to beat her whenever she denied him sex and if she came home late
from her trading business.
He said, "She refuses to cook for me when she is pregnant. She also said I should look for another wife."
He however promised to stop beating or threatening her and will take her back if she wants to stay with him.
The Court adjourned the case for possible reconciliation.
