A herbalist, Kasali Yinusa has pleaded with a Mapo Grade ‘A’ Customary Court in Ibadan to dissolve his nine-year-old union to his estranged wife, Abosede on the grounds that her adulterous lifestyle was having negative effects on their daughter.
Yunusa, accused Abosede of being short tempered, fighting every now and then with people in the neighbourhood.
“I’m most unhappy with the high level of immorality Abosede has impacted on our only child. Since, Abosede and the child no longer stay with me, I notice that the child is exhibits some bad manners whenever she visits me.
”Abosede is too wasteful. I stock up her shop with goods but at the end of the sales, she squanders the proceeds,” he alleged.
The petitioner, consequently, begged to be given custody of the child.
However, Abosede did not comment on most of the contending issues raised by the petitioner.
Abosede, who is a trader, pointed out that her husband never played the role of a good father.
”He refuses to pay our child’s school fees. In fact, that was the reason why I started going to the church, seeking divine intervention.
