An Ogun State Customary Court sitting Ake, Abeokuta, has dissolved the 13-year-old marriage between one Ibrahim Idris and his wife, Shakirat.
Track News reports that the marriage was dissolved over an alleged threat to life.
The husband, a resident of Adigbe, Abeokuta, had approached the court, alleging that his wife and her family members were threatening anytime he had minor issues with his wife.
Idris prayed the court to put an end to the relationship between him and his estranged wife, Shakirat over frequent fighting and the woman’s lack of proper care for their children.
The father of four also accused his wife of publicly assaulting and embarrassing him on several occasions.
According to the applicant, Shakirat, without any tangible reason, took the children and packed out of the house to her parent’s house, while denying him access to the kids.
“We got married in 2009. It all started in 2019 when I got home a particular day and I did not meet my wife. I called her and she told me she was in her parent’s house in Ibadan.
“She’s fond of instigating her family members against me to the point that they have threatened my life,” Idris said
