Also, an Ilorin Area Court, yesterday, dissolved a four-year-old marriage between Bose Abiona and her husband, Akin, over the husband's waywardness.

The presiding judge, Mr Yusuf Abdulkareem, in his judgment, dissolved the marriage and issued a certificate of divorce to the petitioner.

Bose, 30, a resident of Sango Area, Ilorin, had asked the court to dissolve her marriage to her husband for his waywardness.

She told the court that Abiona was fond of parading different sets of ladies and kept lying to her that the ladies were just friends.

"My husband prefers his girlfriends to me because he always buys recharge cards for them," Bose claimed.

The petitioner also alleged that her husband preferred spending much of his time with his concubines outside and would abandon her at home. She said the marriage was contracted in 2010 and had yet to produce any child.

Bose, who urged the court to dissolve the marriage, said: "My husband respects her external ladies more than me, his housewife, and I cannot continue to suffer in an 'unproductive marriage'."

The respondent did not oppose the petition, but urged the court to grant Bose's application.

"I wish her well as she prefers to go and try another man since I am not trustworthy," he said, and urged the court to grant the prayer without any claims.
