Pleading to a Grade 1 Area Court in Aso Pada, Maraba, Nasarawa State, a 38-year-old housewife, Lami Shaibu asked for the dissolution of her 15-month-old marriage to her blind husband, Ibrahim, over his alleged excessive sexual urge.

Shaibu told the court : “I urge the court to dissolve this marriage because I can’t stand his excessive sexual urge. He likes sex too much, I can’t bear it.

“Since I got married to him, there is no peace in the house, he always beats me, he doesn’t forgive and does not provide food for the house” she said.

Vanguard reports:

Lami said: “It is because of his too much sexual demands that made me to move away from him. I now stay at my marriage guardian’s house at Aso Pada, Mararaba.”

Ibrahim, 56, who resides at the same address with Lami, denied the allegation, saying: “I still love her with the whole of my heart.

“I, therefore, urge the court to give me time to reconcile with my wife. I believe she and I can settle the matter amicably.”

The judge, Malam Danladi Musa, adjourned the case to November 18, for settlement or continuation of hearing.
