My Third Wife is Troublesome, Lagos Imam Tells Court

An Imam with the Jamaitul Islam of Nigeria, Ikorodu, Lagos, Mr. Jamiu Bello, on Monday, prayed a customary court in Ikorodu to dissolve his marriage to his third wife because she is troublesome.

Mr. Bello has been married to his third wife Busola for six years.
The Imam said on Monday that he was fed up with his marriage to Busola due to her attitude.

According to Mr. Bello, Busola has embarrassed him in public many times with her “troublesomeness”.


“I want this court to separate us because I am not enjoying the marriage anymore; she fights everyone in the neighbourhood and I suspect her of infidelity,” he said.

Busola, who works as a trader, did not agree to the dissolution of the marriage. She addressed the court stating that she had never disrespected her husband in public.

“I have not offended him in anyway. He has never seen me with any other man.

“Even though he has not been able to provide for my upkeep, I still love him,” Busola, a mother of one told the court.

She added that Mr. Bello had stopped giving her feeding allowance.

After hearing both of the parties, the president of the court, Raheem Daudu, adjourned the case to September 9 for possible reconciliation between the spouses.
