“I moved out of his home when he almost frustrated me and was about taking my life, “Eunice stated.

“My lord, I’m also in support of divorce. I’m no more interested staying married to a harlot. But I pray this honourable court not to handover our children to her so as not to take after her. She’s not a decent human being and she has nothing to offer them.

“My lord, I caught her with a man in our room. I’ve heard of her escapades through our neighbours but she always denied them. On that faithful day, she didn’t know I would be returning home early. I opened the door to our room and alas, there she was with this strange man. I didn’t hesitate to send her packing.

“I’m declaring before the court that the first child in our marriage is not mine. She was carrying another man’s one month pregnancy when we got married. We decided to keep it a secret between us. But it’s better I let the cat out of the bag now that she has come to court, “he said.

Having listened to both parties, the court president, Chief Ademola Odunade stated that more evidence would be needed.

Ruling, he adjourned the case and ordered both parties to return to court with their children.
