Most times when men get married to women older than them,
the tendency is that the women often grow out of the men's
control overtime, Proudlyboys.com observed. In some cases,
these woman start taking actions as the ones in-charge of
their homes, thus disregarding their younger husbands.
On Friday, a 48-yrear-old man, Gbenga Awoyode revealed
details of how his 52-year-old wife, Raliat was caught in the
act with a Pastor inside a hotel in Lagos.
Mr. Awoyode, speaking before an Alagbado Grade A
Customary Court, disclosed that his wife no longer have
respect for him again, saying the night duties he does at Yaba
College of Technology, Lagos provided his wife ample
opportunity to engage in illicit sex with men in their
neighborhood.
The divorce-seeking husband said he is fed up with the 15year
old marriage because of the pains, shame and insult he has
suffered in the union.
He lamented that his neighbour’s wife once accused his wife in
the full glare of other neighbours to leave her husband alone .
He said the marriage produced three children, adding that
Raliat has turned life into a nightmare for him and his two
children from his first marriage, forcing the maltreated children
to run away from home.
Apart from utter disregard for his family members, Awoyode
claimed that his wife beats other relatives who dare to
challenge her actions.
He also said his wife has the habit of seizing his documents,
identification card and driver’s licence, adding that she
destroys his belongings whenever they quarrel.
Awoyode prayed the court to grant him outright divorce,
saying he did not pay any dowry on his wife.
Dispelling the claims of her husband, Raliat said he cooked up
the allegations to give her a bad name in order to secure a
divorce. She claimed that she is not a hostile person as
claimed by her husband, pointing out that her husband’s
callous attitude was the major problem in their marriage.
According to Raliat, her husband only gives her N200 as
feeding allowance for nine people. She also alleged that he
beats her up when she makes any comment on the meagre
sum of money.
Raliat, who also accused her husband of dating another
woman, appealed to the court not to dissolve the marriage as
she still loves her husband.
Following the woman's claim that she still love her husband,
the court president, P.A. Williams, adjourned the case till
Monday, September 9, 2013 for further hearing.
