The Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan, on Friday dissolved a 21-year-old between one Idowu Iyanda and his wife Florence over the wife\u2019s infidelity and alcoholism.<\/p>\n

Mr Ademola Odunade, President of the court ruled that the marriage was dissolved due to irreconcilable differences between the couple.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen wives refuse to keep to dos and don\u2019ts binding a union, the result is usually tragic and bring about break up such as what is currently taking place.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the interest of peaceful coexistence, the union between Idowu and Florence has ceased to be henceforth.<\/p>\n

\u201cCustody of the four children produced by the union is granted to Idowu.<\/p>\n

\u201cIdowu shall pay N3, 000 to Florence to enable her move out her property from the house,\u201d the Arbitrator said.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Idowu , a carpenter \u00a0had told the court that his wife Florence, was an unrepentant prostitute and alcoholic.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy lord, when I entered into the union with Florence in 1996, I never knew that I was making a very terrible mistake for choosing her as a life partner.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is never to be trusted for a single moment in terms of fidelity as Florence has made herself a public tap where all sorts of men of easy virtue fetch water.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy lord, times without number, I have caught her with men and I have warned her against the adulterous act.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the sake of emphasis my lord, our fourth and last child is a sickle cell patient, my own Genotype is AA, Florence is AS, how did our last child become an SS.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorst still, Florence is an addicted alcohol consumer. In fact, she still consumed one last night, this is the bottle my lord.<\/p>

\u201cWhen she was complaining that she wanted to be riding a car, despite the fact that I don\u2019t drive, I bought a car.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe agreed that she will be driving the car, carrying me to and from my workshop.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne day, Florence carried me to a particular point and abandoned me in the car and went her way.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, she no longer perform any of her conjugal rites and she quarrels with me all the time.<\/p>\n

\u201cFlorence is a highly disobedient wife and she has even vowed to eliminate me from the surface of the earth.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe poisoned the drinking water at home with the intention that I will drink it, but I got to know and refused to take the water,\u201d Idowu said.<\/p>\n

Florence, a hair dresser, who could not deny most of the allegations, however, pleaded with the court to save her marriage.<\/p>\n

She said that she was not ready to part ways with Idowu because they both achieved greatness together.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy lord, it is true that I consume alcohol, but it is only during cold weather.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wonder why Idowu is rejecting the paternity of our last child. I don\u2019t know why he is an SS,\u201d Florence said.<\/p>\n

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the couple \u00a0resides at Alegun-Oleyo area of Ibadan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
