An Ilorin Area Court on
Wednesday, dissolved the three-
year-old marriage between Mustafa
Kudus and Saidat Mustafa over the
latter's hot temper. Kudus, 40, a resident of Gambari
Area, Ilorin, had earlier prayed the
court to dissolve his marriage to
Saidat, due to her 'uncontrollable
hot nature'. The plaintiff told the court that
his wife gets provoked easily and
reacts negatively to everything
around her. "My wife has fought with every
member of our neighbourhood and
family friends, due to her
uncontrollable aggression," he said. He cited an instance when his wife
grabbed his cloth in the presence of
her friends, accusing him of not
giving her enough money to buy
foodstuff. According to him, their marriage was
contracted in 2010 and had produced
one male child, Sheriff. "My Lord, I want an end to this
marriage because I cannot cope with
a woman that lacks calmness and
can't control her temperament,"
said the complainant. The defendant did not object to the
prayer of the plaintiff but said her
husband complained a lot. Sa'idat prayed the court to grant
the prayer of her husband without
any claim. The presiding Judge, Mr Yusuf
Abdulkareem dissolved the
marriage and issued a certificate of
divorce to the plaintiff. Also a housewife, Memunat
Rasheed of Ganmo Area , Ilorin, on
Wednesday told an Ilorin Area
Court that her husband, Rasheed
Isiaka was stingy. The 30-year-old woman prayed the
court to dissolve her four-year-old
marriage to Isiaka, due to his stingy
nature. The plaintiff told the court that
her husband was stingy to her and
their two children, and that he
hardly provided for their needs. "My husband will at times satisfy
himself at the cafeteria before
coming home and will refuse to
cater for me and my children," she
said. According to her, their marriage was
contracted in 2009 and has produced
two male children, Ibrahim and
Kazeem. "My Lord, I want an end to this
marriage because I cannot continue
to live with a man that is selfish and
stingy to his family," said the
complainant. The defendant objected to the
prayer of his wife, saying that he
was still interested in the marriage. "My wife doesn't know how to
manage and that is the reason I
always feel reluctant to give her
everything at ones," he said. Isiaka promised to change and give
to his family more than necessary in
order to make his wife and children
happy. He prayed the court for an
adjourned date for him to make a
reconciliatory move. The presiding Judge, Mr Yusuf
Abdulkareem adjourned the case to
Dec.5 for a report of settlement or
continuation of hearing. (NAN)
