‘I caught my apprentice with my wife in bed’ A 45 year old driver yesterday in Idanre , Ondo State told a customary court how his wife of 20 years was caugh in bed with his apprentice on their matrimonial home. The Customary Court II sitting at Odode-Idanre in Idanre Local Government Area of Ondo State was stunned when a 48-year old driver, Eric Akinnola, declared that he beat his apprentice, Moruf, to stupor because he caught him making love to his wife on their matrimonial bed. The wife Mrs Omoyokun Akinola, had earlier filed a case against her husband, accused him of drunkenness, lack of care and threat to life among others. She therefore prayed the court to dissolve her 20-year old relationship with her husband. In his response, Eric did not only defend himself, but debunked all the allegations leveled against him by his wife describing them as being spurious. To start with, he averred that he was tired of the relationship, which produced four girls, on the ground of infidelity. He reeled out the names of his wife’s lovers to include Mosuf , who was beaten to stupor, Mr Friday and Mr Omolade with whom he (Eric) fought in their farm settlement at Omifon. According to him, they had to expel him and Mr Omolade as the only panacea to their incessant imbroglios over Madam Omoyokun. When the president of the court, Hon. Ademujimi, asked if their families ever intervened in their spousal problems, Eric answered that both families had tried their best to ensure that they started living together again until his wife met an old tailor with whom she started doing what she liked doing best. Eric added that his wife confessed to him that nobody could separate her and the tailor. He therefore prayed the court to grant Madam Omoyokun’s prayer for the dissolution of the association. Finally, the president and other members of the court dissolved the marriage in order to allow peace to reign supreme in the community.
