– She claims that her husband has not been living

Thirty-three-year-old Mrs Ifeanyi Samuel has told
an Igando customary court in Lagos state why she
wished to dissolve her nine-year-old marriage.

incapabilities in bed.
The businesswoman said her marriage should be
annulled because her husband does not perform in bed. While testifying in court, the petitioner said her husband, in their nine years of marriage, had not been able to satisfy her sexually.
“My husband cannot perform well, he was not
doing his `job’ at all and it makes me sad.
“My husband does not satisfy me, he does not
last a minute in bed,” She averred.
Mrs Samuel also disclosed to the court that she
had to force her husband to go for medical
check-up from where it was confirmed that he is
suffering from low sperm count.
“My husband has low sperm count. I bought the
drugs prescribed by the doctor for him, but he
refused to use them.
“His refusal to take the drugs had resulted in
fighting because I need a child. We have been
married for nine years without any issue,” she
said.
She pleaded with the court to end the marriage
as her love for him was dead.
In his reaction, 40-year-old Samuel admitted he
had low sperm count and he is looking up to God
for divine intervention.
“I am trying my best to satisfy my wife and I am
also trusting God for a miracle,” he said.
He, however, claimed his wife was into
extramarital affairs, stating that men always called her at odd hours.
“My wife has been committing adultery, there was
a day I saw a text message she sent to her lover.
“I showed her the text, but instead of her to
apologise, she warned me not to touch her phone
again.
“My wife goes out without telling me and comes
back at 11.00pm. and whenever I query her, she
would tell me she owns her life,” he affirmed.
While delivering judgement, the president of the
court, Mr Hakeem Oyekan, affirmed that the union was dissolved because the wife had insisted on divorce despite several attempts to salvage the
marriage.
President of the court said: “The court has no
choice but to dissolve the union in spite of the
fact that the husband still claims he loves his
wife.
“The couple can no longer stay together because
the marriage has broken down totally.
“The parties are no longer husband and wife; they
are free to go their separate ways.”
