Newsfaze: man says his wife is a witch while trying to dissolve their marriage

A man  has appeared before a court seeking a dissolution to their matrimonial union due to that he can no longer tolerate the troublesome nature of his wife.
According to sources, the man did this because there was no love in their home
. An Agege customary court in Lagos, Lagos State has reconciled a couple, Mr Akinyemi Ilesanmi and his wife, Comfort, whose 10-year-old marriage was on the brink of collapse.
Sources say that Akinyemi, who claimed to be a prophet, had instituted a divorce suit on June 20th, on the grounds that there was no love between them and an alleged threat to his life.
He also alleged that his wife was a ‘witch’.
However, the intervention of the court’s president, Mr Philip Williams, and the couple’s families helped to resolve the couple’s differences and reconcile them.
Williams subsequently, urged the couple to give peace a chance in the marriage and be law abiding.
Earlier in his testimony during hearing, the petitioner, who resides at Akute Area of Ogun State, told the court that there was no love in the marriage.
“I have not been at peace since l got married to my wife, she is so quarrelsome.
“I am a prophet of God, but since l married her, she has been disturbing my ministry. Whenever l am fasting, she forces me to break it due to her bad attitude. ‘My wife is a devil,’ even those in my neighborhood call her a witch,” he alleged.
According to him, the marriage which was contracted in 2006 has not produced any child.
“We got married under two weeks of meeting each other following a fake prophet my wife introduced to me while we were courting. He prophesied then to me that she was my wife.
“Due to her troublesome ways, l have now developed high blood pressure.
“My lord, I want an end to this marriage because I cannot cope with my wife’s trouble anymore. Please, separate us, so that l can have a rest of mind,” the petitioner said.
In her response, Comfort who is the respondent, pleaded for reconciliation.
She, however, denied all the allegations levelled against her by her husband.
“I am still interested in the marriage. I want this court to save my marriage because I do not want to marry another husband. I still love him,” she told the court.

There are many reasons why couples fight, bt the main reason is " not being sure of eachother before getting into marriage".
Rushing into marriage has been a very big source of couple misunderstandings  and can lead to couples breaking the law out of irritation for eachother at a point in their marital life.
