Court dissolves 22-year-old marriage over wife’s nagging
A Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan, on Wednesday, dissolved a 22-year-old marriage between a man, David Adetula and Remi on grounds of frequent nagging.
Delivering judgment, the President of the court, Chief Henry Agbaje held that “it was possible to take the horse to the river, but impossible to force it to drink water.’’
Agbaje held that the court’s effort to prevail on the petitioner to change his decision for separation did not materialise.
He consequently dissolved the union in the interest of peace and granted custody of the three most senior children to their father and the last to their mother.
