John Ayoade has pleaded
with a customary court in Lagos to dissolve his marriage
– Ayoade said his wife beats him at will, including several public
bashing
– The troubled husband also said his wife attacked his manhood
– A DNA test is proposed to settle the couples’ dispute over the
paternity of their child
Ayoade has begged an Alimosho customary court to dissolve his
five-year-old marriage to his wife Deborah Oriade.
The 42-year-old man told the court sitting in Lagos he craved
dissolution of his marriage for fear of his life.
Ayoade cited his wife’s alleged brutality and maltreatment as core
reason for his petition.
He narrated to the court how his wife had taken on the habit of beating
him at will, saying she had beaten more than 10 times, even in public.
According to Ayoade, on one occasion, Oriade attacked his manhood until
it started bleeding and not yet done, she dashed into the kitchen,
brought ground pepper and poured it on his bleeding penis.
“I didn’t marry her legally. In fact, I’m married. I have my first wife.
Deborah and I were only dating. We met at the Sawmill where we both
sell building materials. She always comes to my shop to complain to me
about her former husband. It was in that process I developed interest in
her.”

Ayoade further informed that two years into their relationship, Oriade
came to tell him that she was pregnant but that he rejected the
pregnancy because before they started having sex, he had already told
her that he didn’t want any kid, especially not out of wedlock and she
had agreed to the proposal.
“Moreover, I still love my legal wife. When Deborah delivered the baby,
she named him Emmanuel. I was not aware. After the naming ceremony, she
started behaving strangely.
Some of my friends advised me to report the matter at the palace of
Elegbeda, where I was asked to cater for the upkeep of the baby. I have
been doing that since last year.”
Pulse reports that after the traditional ruler ordered Ayoade to take up
the responsibility of the child, he allegedly did.
Ayoade however notes that all he did was not satisfactory to his wife.
“One fateful day, she came to my house and pounced on my house wife. She
beat her mercilessly. The matter was reported to the police and later
transferred to the State Criminal Investigative Department (SCID),
Panti, Yaba, for threatening the life of my family member.
Since I met her, I have not known peace. If I had known that is the kind
of woman she is, I wouldn’t have approached her. I have developed
hypertension since we started this clash.
Even in my matrimonial home, I don’t have peace. I can’t concentrate
anymore on my business. It was after I met her I knew she is from
Ilesha. I have been advised by my father not to marry any woman from
that part of the country.”

Sharing her side of the story, Oriade, a mother of three, denied the
allegations leveled against her by Ayoade, saying she loves him and
would not want to leave him because of the child they have together.
“I love him. I don’t want to leave him because he is the father of my
son. He is the one who came to file for divorce in the court. If not
because of the problem I had with my former husband, I wouldn’t have
come across him. I had two children in my former marriage.
When the problem between me and my former husband was still raging, I
always confided in Ayoade, it was in the process that we fell in love
and got married.
The marriage produced a baby boy. Before my son came, I had two
abortions for Ayoade.
My problem with him is that he doesn’t want to recognize my son as one
of his children. This is why I went to his house and introduced myself
to his wife.” Adding: “I didn’t fight her.”
The President of the court, Alhaja S O Mumini , told the couple that a
DNA test will be conducted to know the real father. She noted that the
test was necessary because the rightful father of the baby was in doubt.
Alhaja Mumini adjourned the case to Teusday, March 15, 2016.

divorce because his wife was cheating on him. The man named Dara Falana
said he caught his wife with her boyfriend in their living room, eating
‘Tantalizers’ take-away.
