when a 39-year-old female Police Inspector, Mary Igah, gave
testimony in a divorce suit she instituted against her police officer
husband
Mary asked the court to dissolve her 19-year-old marriage for
alleged threat to her life.
According to her, Emmanuel, her husband, threatened to deal with
her and before she knew what was happening, she found her
panties and brassiere in his bag and she did not know where he
was taking them.
“My husband took my underwear without my consent; I saw my
pant and brassiere in his handbag when he wanted to leave for
work. I am scared of staying with him. I no longer feel safe in his
house,” she said.Mary alleged further that her husband was fond
of embarrassing her in public.
“My husband always embarrassed me in public, including my place
of work. He would beat me and drag me out of my office while
calling me vulgar names.
“Anytime we have issues, he would call me a prostitute.”
However, 46-year-old Emmanuel denied the allegations levelled
against him by his wife. He alleged that his wife was promiscuous.
“I heard stories about my wife’s infidelity, so, I went to her
office to find out and fortunately for me, I met her with the man.
“I did not embarrass her, I only excused her from the office and
asked what she was doing with the man and she started shouting.
“I did not beat her. In short, I have never raised my hand against
her since I married her 19 years ago,” he said.Emmanuel appealed
to the court not to grant his wife’s divorce wish as he still loved
her.
After the arguments, the court president, Mr R.I. Adeyeri, adjourned
the matter till August 14, for judgment.
