Court Dissolve 10-Yr-Old Marriage Over Wife's Abortion Of Pregnancies
A 10-year-old marriage between Faniyan Abodunde and Comfort has been dissolved by a Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan on Tuesday, August 5, over infidelity and abortion of pregnancies.
Abodunde who lived apart with his wife, Comfort at Apata Area of Ibadan with their two children before she started misbehaving told the court that Comfort was a big time prostitute who aborted four different pregnancies from her escapade.
According to Abodunde: “When I caught her prostituting, I warned her and restrained from having further sexual intercourse with her so that I would not contact disease.
“During that time, she aborted four separate pregnancies and the last one almost took her life.

“Comfort’s mother even invited her to her matrimonial home to give birth there.
“One day, I took the pain to ask Comfort’s younger sister living with us if she was aware of her sister’s pregnancy.
“I asked Comfort’s sister to swear with the holy bible in her confession and she confessed of her sister’s escapades and the pregnancy.
"I always listen to her mother’s plea for her, but she almost lost her life in the last abortion.
"I don’t want to be held culpable for what I am not responsible for,” he explained.
The President of the court, Mr Ademola Odunade, in his judgment, said that not only is prostituting a big risk to the wife but also the husband.
“Comfort has refused to show up in court and this indicates that she is guilty; the court does not want the death of anybody.
“According to the report we heard, she almost died the last time she aborted, the court therefore, dissolve the union between both of you henceforth,” he ruled.
