Sex-Starved Woman Begs Court For Divorce
An Igando Customary Court, on Tuesday, dissolved a nine year old marriage over lack of sex.
Mrs. Ayo Amos had approached the court seeking dissolution of her union to Mr Funsho Amos on the grounds of sex starvation and irreconcilable differences.
According to 40-year-old Ayo, her 72-year-old husband denied her of sex for three years without reason.

“My husband denied me sex for good three years without any reason and he knew that I needed a child,” Ayo said.
“My husband told me to pack out of his house saying that I am a barren woman and cannot bear children. He told me to get another man, that he is no longer interested in me. Funsho refused to pay our house and shop rents when both expired, and ordered the landlord to eject me from the house; which the landlord complied with. I begged him, even when my family members called him to know if I have offended him in any way, he told them that he was no more interested in me,” Ayo said.
The petitioner said that in August 2018, she begged her husband to divorce her after sending her out of their matrimonial house, but he refused.
The respondent, however, conceded to the petitioner’s request for the dissolution of their marriage, saying that he was no longer interested in the union.
“I do not love her anymore, please court, grant her request for the dissolution of our marriage. I have six children, some are abroad. I do not even need a child from her,” Funsho said.
The court president, Mr. Adeniyi Koledoye, while delivering the judgment, said it appeared that the estranged couple was tired of the marriage and all efforts to reconcile both parties had failed.
“Since both parties consented to the dissolution of their marriage, this court has no choice than to dissolve the marriage. The court hereby pronounces the marriage between Mrs. Ayo Amos and Mr. Funsho Amos dissolved today; both of you henceforth cease to be husband and wife. Each of you should go on his or her separate ways unmolested, the court wishes both of you well in your future endeavours,” Koledoye ruled.
