“My husband raped me and I had to lose a two-
month old pregnancy in the process. I want the
dissolution of my two-year-old marriage,” a-38-year-
old wife of a pastor had told a Lagos Island
Customary Court .
The petitioner, Mary Iyayi, a make-up artist, who
lives at 49, Oke-Olu St., Iponri, a suburb of Lagos,
confessed this development to the court.
She alleged thus, “My pastor-husband held my
hands to the wall, so I could not move. I told him
that I was pregnant but he did not listen, until he
forcefully made love to me.
“After it, I started bleeding and I lost the
pregnancy. He told me later that he had just
helped me to flush out the pregnancy.’’
Mary said that she had three abortions for pastor
during their courtship in order to save his ministry
from crumbling.
“It was after we had been married that I knew
that he married me because of my money and not
that he truly loves for me.
“He once told me that he preferred a woman with
big breasts which I do not have,” she said.
Mary told the court that her husband was fond of
beating her at any slight provocation and that act
had led her to have two miscarriages.
“While he was beating me, he also pushed me and
I hit my stomach against the wall, and I lost a
pregnancy in the process.’’
She also told the court that before she packed
out of her matrimonial home in June, last year ,
her husband had stopped sleeping in the same
room with her.
“Due to the three abortions and two miscarriages
I suffered, I was told at the hospital that my
womb had been tampered with and that it would
take divine intervention for me to be pregnant
again.
“Also, my husband threatened to kill me if I
should leave him, saying it is against the law of
his church. He said that their church law forbids
its members from marrying another wife if the
former wife was still alive.
“I packed all my belongings from his house
except my wedding gown which he seized. I want
the court to help me collect it from him and
dissolve the union.
“I am making this appeal because I am the only
child of my parents and I do not want to die
prematurely and mysteriously,” she said.
Mary also told the court that she bought almost
all the items including the two cell phones her
husband was currently using.
While responding, the husband, Pastor Samuel
Iyayi, 35, who lives at the Assembly of God
Church, Alpha Beach, Lekki, Lagos State, told the
court that he did not rape his wife.
“It is true we had sex and she lost some blood in
the process, but I did not rape her.
“She also left home in April 2014 for one and a-
half months only to return after some of our
church members had intervened on her behalf.
Iyayi, however, speaking on the wedding gown
said, “I had sold the wedding gown when my
father was sick and I could not raise money to
offset his hospital bills.
He said that he was still in love with his wife and
was ready to have her back if she was still in
love with him.
The President, Chief Awos Awosola, ordered the
man to produce the wedding gown in court on
June 1, the next adjourned date and told the
couple to maintain peace.
He adjourned the case to June 1 for further
hearing.
