A middle-aged man, Luqman Agoro, has pleaded with the Agege Customary Court, Lagos, to dissolve his marriage to Saidat. He claimed that his wife was stubborn and denied him access to his child. He said she had been negatively influenced by her mother.
“She does not listen to me; she does anything her mother wants her to do. She does not mind if it’s bad or good and she keeps to herself,” he said.
He told the court that there was a time his mother-in-law asked his wife to bring his finger nails and his wife didn’t tell him until he was eventually confronted by his mother-in-law.
