A fight between a couple, Alade Muniru and his wife Sadiat,
over the removal of a telephone battery has resulted in the collapse of their
18-year-old marriage.
Sadiat had approached the Ogungun Customary Court at Agodi
in Ibadan, seeking the dissolution of the marriage, explaining that her husband
had turned her into a punching bag.
In her testimony before the court on Friday, the plaintiff
narrated how her sweetheart of 18 years had beaten her mercilessly on New Year
Day for tampering with his telephone battery.
“Although he used to beat me at least twice a week but that
of the first day in the New Year was beyond what I can bear.
“I have four children for him and he rarely caters for me
and the kids, despite my total submission to him as the head of the family.
