According to Saka, his joy has reduced following his marriage to his wife, Saida, adding that she is irresponsible, a drunker and also physically abused him.

Speaking during the hearing, Saka added that Saida is a chronic drinker, and even when he gave her N50, 000 to start a business, she spent it on alcohol.

Saka stated that Sadia, after dinking and getting drunk, would mess up their apartment and betwet. And also, she would usually lock him up in their room and beat him up.

Speaking in her defence, Saida said her husband, who is an herbalist is selfish, and only gives her #200 daily for feeding, without fulfilling his promise of taking good care of her.

Saka, in his evidence, said,

“My lord, my wife is a thorn in the flesh.

“She has ridiculed me enough. I want her out of my house and life.

“I have never met her parents.

“I only know her sister, which was why I did not pay her bride price.

“She moved in with me in 2020 and turned my life upside down.

“I gave her N50, 000 to empower her.

“I sat her down and enlightened her on the different businesses she could go into.

“I felt I was relating with a reasonable and sensible person, but this was not the case.

“My wife to my chagrin took to drinking.

“She could drink a barrel of beer in a day.
