A 51-year-old man, Sunday Imoleayo, who is seeking the dissolution of his 28-year-old marriage to his wife, Funmise, has told an Ado-Ekiti Customary Court sitting in Ekiti State that his wife was impregnated by one of her numerous lovers and allegedly aborted it.
Imoleayo, who resides at Omolayo, behind Queen’s Court, Ado Ekiti, the state capital, said his wife sleeps around with several men, adding that she confessed to him that she had aborted a pregnancy belonging to one of her lovers.
He said, “She fell sick and after I had taken her to many hospitals for treatment without solution, the family elders consulted the deity and it was found out that she had committed adultery.
They told her that for her to get well, she must confess and that was when she confessed that she had aborted a baby for one of her boyfriends.”
Funmise, 45, on her part debunked the allegations, saying that it was her husband who had abandoned her for a long period of time without considering her and the children.
She however agreed to the dissolution of the union while asking the court to award the custody of their daughter to her.
While delivering his verdict, the President of the court, Joseph Ogunsemi, dissolved the union and awarded custody of the 15-year-old daughter to Funmise, adding that the first son who is 27, should decide who to stay with.
