A woman in Lagos has pleaded with a Customary Court in the Ejigbo area
to dissolve her 15 year marriage.
Glory Ojuala has told the court that her husband, Alex, drugged her 2
days after she delivered a baby so that he could have a long bout of
sexual intercourse with her.
The 30-year-old woman said her husband put the drug in a bottle of
soft drink which he offered her.
The Tribune reports:
A mother of three, Glory claimed that two days after she was delivered
of a baby, her husband started pestering her for sex in the presence
of her mother, who was on a visit. She told the court that she denied
her husband sex because she was still recovering from the pains of
childbirth and was also breast feeding.
She reiterated that after she took the soft drink, she couldn't
explain what happened afterwards until she became conscious three days
later in the hospital. She added that she later knew that her husband
drugged her when he confessed.
Following the incident, Glory moved out of their matrimonial home and
since then, the couple have been living separately.
She asked the court to dissolve their marriage on the grounds that her
husband was threatening her life and didn't care for her and the
children.
In addition, she told the court that she believed her husband charmed
her into marrying him and her suspicion was confirmed when she started
attending church. She asked the court to compel her husband to take
care of their children by providing for their upkeep and education.
In response, Alex denied all the allegations made against him and said
he took care of his family, but things went sour when he and his wife
started having misunderstandings. He added that he used to give his
wife N200 daily and therefore wondered why she claimed he was not
taking care of his family.
He also said he was no longer interested in the relationship and asked
the court to dissolve their marriage.
He promised to provide N10,000 for the upkeep and education of his
children.
The case was adjourned till March 5.
