Pastor’s Wife Caught By The Husband Sleeping With Another Man On Their Matrimonial Bed In Lagos

An Orile-Agege Customary Court in Lagos on Wednesday
dissolved a 20-year-old marriage of a pastor who had accused
his wife of adultery, stealing and threatening his life.
Pastor Olufemi Adewumi, 44, who lives at 12, Ajiboye Close, Ile-
Iwe, Agbado Oke-Odo, Agege, came to the court on Dec.12, 2013,
seeking the dissolution of his marriage to Fatimo, his wife.
Ruling in the case, the Court President, Mr Adegboyega Omilola,
said that the marriage had broken down irreparably.
“Since the inception of the hearing, the woman failed to appear
before the court; a court summon was served to her, but she
failed to come.
“The court cannot continue to wait for the woman that failed to
honour the court.
“So, the marriage is dissolved today. You have ceased to be
husband and wife, you shall go your separate ways unmolested,”
he said.
Omilola granted custody of their two children, aged 12 and 15
years, to the man.
“Take care of the children and ensure you see to their well
being,” he said.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the pastor had
told the court that his wife was adulterous and kept bad
company.
“I caught my wife and one of her lovers in her house sometime in
2013. She was not expecting me to come home at that time, else
she would not have invited her lover,” he said.
The petitioner had also told the court that his wife kept bad
company and he tried in vain to keep her away from her bad
friends.
He said that money also got missing in their room on some
occasions and described his wife as a fetish woman who
threatened his life.
“I want the dissolution of the marriage and custody of my
children,” he had said.
