“I will not grant my wife divorce until she swears before my village deity that she was not involved in an extramarital affair” – Man tells Abuja court

A man identified as Sunday Enejo, pleaded a Customary Court in Jikwoyi, Abuja not to award his wife divorce unless she swears before ‘Aniku’ (a holistic deity) that she was not engaging in an extramarital affair.

I will not grant my wife divorce until she swears before my village deity that she was not involved in an extramarital affair - Man tells Abuja court

In her divorce suit, his entrepreneur wife Rose claimed that Enejo was a violent man who frequently beat her.

Enejo would not, however, allow Rose a divorce until she took an oath in front of “Aniku.”

He told the court, “Unless my wife follows me to the village to swear before “Aniku” that she is not having an extramarital affair, I will not grant my wife divorce.

Labaran Gusau, the presiding judge, postponed the case for a hearing until April 4, 2023.
