A 72-two-year-old technician on Thursday in Lagos divorced his wife for depriving him of s*x for six years. An Igando Customary Court dissolved the 12-year-old marriage of Salmon Kassim, who also accused his wife, Mariam, of infidelity. The Court President, Mr R.I. Adeyeri, held that the estranged couple was tired of the union, thereby making all efforts of the court to save the marriage fruitless.
“Since both parties consented to the dissolution of the marriage, the court has no choice than to dissolve it. Both parties are free to go their separate ways. They are to keep peace at all times; any violation of the order should be reported to the police,” Adeyeri ordered. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Kassim filed the divorce suit on 22 November, 2012.
