Published by

A housewife, Asmau Abdullahi has pleaded with a Minna Sharia Court in Niger State, to dissolve her marriage over constant beating, raining insults and abuses by her husband.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Asmau told the court that her husband, Ibrahim Abdullahi, was in the habit of assaulting her for no just cause.

“My husband insults me and calls me names like `mad woman’, `foolish woman’ and the likes.

“He is always beating me and forcing me to fetch water from the well at odd hours.

“He does not show me love at all, and that is why I want an end to this marriage,” she stated.

Ibrahim, however, denied his wife’s allegations, saying that he had always been a good husband.

He maintained that he still loved his wife and wouldn’t want them to go their separate ways.

The judge, Malam Ahmed Bima, advised the couple to give peace a chance and settle their differences, as marriage demands a lot of patience and understanding.

He adjourned the case till September 11, to give room for both parties to settle their differences.
