An Igando Customary Court in Lagos on Thursday dissolved a 10-year-old marriage after a 45-year-old businessman, Mr Mutiu Bamgbose, accused his wife, Aliyah, of stealing.

Mutiu, in his statement to the court, said, “My wife is a thief; she is not always satisfied with whatever I give to her; she keeps stealing my money at will.

“The most painful incident was when she stole my N3m and squandered it. Because of her habit, I started keeping my money in the ceiling, but that didn’t stop her.

“When I could no longer condone it, I opened a bank account and she became angry, making life miserable for me.

“It is obvious that my wife doesn’t love me; she is just after my money.”

The embattled man also accused his wife of adultery.

“She started having affairs with a married man in our community. I approached the man and warned him seriously to stay away from my wife,” he added.

The petitioner further said his wife abandoned their matrimonial home and took away all his belongings.

He said, “Aliyah is fetish; there was a day I opened her bag and saw charms. I took it to my family head and she was summoned; but she could not explain how she got the charms.”

The President of the court, Mr Adeniyi Koledoye, held that it was obvious from available testimony and the respondent’s refusal to appear in court that the marriage had hit the rocks.

“Throughout the duration of this case, the respondent refused to honour court processes despite being served several times.

“Therefore, the court has no other choice than to dissolve the marriage. The court hereby pronounces the marriage between Mr Mutiu and Mrs Aliyah Bamgbose dissolved today.

“Henceforth, both of you cease to be husband and wife.

“Each of you should go your separate ways unmolested; the court wishes both of you well in your future endeavours,” Koledoye said.

The court gave custody of their twin girls to the respondent and ordered Mutiu to pay N10,000 monthly for their feeding, while their male child was given to the petitioner.

Stories like this has made me choose the path I chose..

If she was financial ok or at least making up to 5,000 ngn daily, she wouldn't be thinking of stealing...

Imagine discovering a system as unique as this

I don't see any reason to depend on anyone anymore,
I don't depend on my parents anymore not to talk of depending on a man out there...

Ladies please, get up and learn to make money for urself, money gives us the power we lack...

I read on the other thread where police arrested a lady for allegedly dating a suspected ipob member, and I imagine myself being arrested by police with such nonsense allegation, that policeman would have been behind bars before 48 hours...

Nonsense.

Been stealing the glory of that husband

Sometimes people do things without thinking about the consequences of what might be people's opinion in the future

How do you cope with the shame as a child knowing that your dad divorced your mum because your mum na third who never gets satisfied with she is given and also a pr!xk freak

Mtcheww,,, I even thought she's a kleptomaniac who steals anything stealable. Aside other claims, the stealing part is nonsense. The husband must have granted her too much access to his money before things fell apart between them.

Husband/wife would always have reason(s) for wanting a divorce.

This life...

You know kleptomania is a disorder yet you say she needs prayers instead of treatment/therapy. Why??

Mheen too bad. But why would a wife steal from the husband? If you know u need money to get some things or pay some bills why not go straight and ask him instead of stealing?

Why always Igando

Marriage loosing relevance daily

He's lying.

So hr could not file for divorce since? It is after she left that all these super stories are coming out?

Another example of Nigeria's f*cked up judiciary, a mother that steals, commits adultery, abandons her home and has no regard for the law is given custody of her female child, what sort of training will she give such a child?

Over wife's stealing habit? I don't think taking her husband's money is considered stealing. Except maybe na Yoruba man..

If a woman takes her husband's money, can it under any guise be called stealing?
