Businessman, Mr Seyi Ogundeji, on Friday pleaded with a Customary Court in Ake, Abeokuta, to dissolve his marriage to Biola on grounds of threat to life.
The man, aged 34, accused his wife Biola, 29, of public embarrassment and incessant fighting.
He lamented,
"My wife is very troublesome; she usually curses and embarrasses me in the public anytime we have a little misunderstanding. She also squanders the rents I collect from my tenants. Sometime ago, she stole my N200,000. She denied stealing it. Her behaviour made me marry a second wife. Please separate us before she kills me."
Meanwhile Biola did not deny the allegations, however, she pleaded with the court not to grant her husband's request.
She promised to change her behaviour. In her opinion, Seyi wants to get rid of her so the second wife could move into their apartment.
"Help me to appeal to him because there is no man that will marry me at this age," she said.
The couple is blessed with one child. The president of the court, Mr Israel Fajebe, said that there was little room for reconciliation and fixed Feb. 13 for judgment.
