The estranged husband said; “Since she is bent on leaving and having
spent so much on her and her family, she should pay the stated amount to
secure her release.”
“I have tried my best in this circumstance to see that the couple remain one, but the woman stood her grounds,” the judge said.
One housewife identified as Seliat Abeeb, on Thursday in Omu-Aran, Kwara State, offered to pay the bride price of N120, 000 demanded by her husband as a condition for dissolving their five-year-old barren marriage.
Seliat, 33, who lives at Ago Olushola area in Otun, had approached an Omu-Aran Court on June 14, seeking the dissolution of her marriage to Abeeb.
She said: “I was forced to marry him against my will. I know quite well that my husband had spent some money on me.
“I am ready to pay the N120, 000 he demanded as condition for my release. He cannot use the huge amount to deter me from leaving.
“I am no longer interested in the union.”
The estranged husband, Abeeb, who demanded N120,000 as a precondition for her release, had earlier pleaded with the court to assist in reconciling him with his wife but the move was vehemently refused by Seliat.
Abeeb said: “Since she is bent on leaving and having spent so much on her and her family, she should pay the stated amount to secure her release,” Abeeb said.
The judge, Mr Abolade Banigbe, in his ruling, said the court did its best to pacify Seliat but to no avail.
“We have no option than to dissolve the union.
“The case was earlier adjourned for settlement among the parties, but with the turn of event, the court has no option than to dissolve the marriage.
“I have tried my best in this circumstance to see that the couple remain one, but the woman stood her grounds.
“The union between them cease to exist from now,” Banigbe declared.
But the judge awarded the sum of N50, 000 to be paid to Abeeb as against the N120, 000 he demanded.
