A 40-year-old man, Mr. Maxwell Madu,
has told the Agege Grade 'A' Customary
Court that if his wife, Grace Oguche, 24,
divorces him, she may die.
Madu said on Monday that his wife had
taken an oath of kolanut and water with
him in her village. He explained that the
oath demanded total loyalty to him.
He added that if the woman defaulted,
she might lose her life.
He told the court that Oguche took the
oath in the presence of her family
members in the village.
He said, "I did not know that my wife was
having an extra-marital affair, and she
was already pregnant for her boyfriend
although, she had a miscarriage.
"She cheated even though she had
taken an oath that she would never
leave me. She took the oath in the
presence of her people because she had
run away from me in the past.
"She had gone to the village to find a
way to break the oath, but they told her
it could not be broken except I was
present.
"She is playing with her life."
Oguche had earlier pleaded with the
court to dissolve her union with her
husband, because he could no longer
perform in bed.
She added that Madu had failed in his
responsibilities as a man in terms of
providing for the home and their six-
year-old son since he lost his job two
years back.
Oguche, on Monday, insisted on ending
the marriage since she was no longer
interested in her husband who could no
longer meet her sexual needs.
She claimed that Madu could not
impregnate a woman because they had
tried a couple of times, but to no avail.
Oguche also requested custody of her
male child.
She said, "Ever since my husband lost
his job, I take care of the responsibilities
in the home alone, and he does not
appreciate my efforts.
"He also does not perform well in bed. I
cannot continue in this marriage and I do
not want to leave my son with him."
Madu, however, said his wife was never
satisfied whenever they had sex, adding
that he had begun taking medication to
make him more effective.
He also stressed that he did not want
their son, Bright, to be in his mother's
custody for fear of being neglected.
He said, "My son is the reason I did not
send her packing when her boyfriend
impregnated her. I do not want her to
take the child because she would not
take care of him.
"Even she warned me never to leave my
child with her."

Love by force she cheated and got pregnant for someone else. Yet she didn't die. The oath is fake

Instead of him to confess he doesn't want her to leave,he's selling nonsense.
Oath kor,sacrifice ni..

that oath is defective... too many water have passed under the bridge! how is the man even sure the son is his, let them perform a DNA test first. then anullment!

Love, loyalty and resposibility are important in keeping a marriage. If you don't love each other, why not end the relationship.

Valto: that oath is defective... too many water have passed under the bridge! how is the man even sure the son is his, let them perform a DNA test first. then anullment!

DNA? What for? The man already knows the child is not his.

Anyone that forces you to swear an oath, has something to hide. Emotional instability, mental illness, or just a very diabolical individual who most likely is possesive and should the need arise where you leave such a marriage/relationship, you may not leave unscathed. Not necessarily by juju, but by the other party harming you. Everyone will die one day, so taking her chances, the odds may not be so against her.
