Justice R. A. Siyanbola of an Ile-Ife High Court, on Wednesday, dissolved a 12-year-old marriage between Yetunde Olaomo and Nathaniel Olaomo for desertion and disappointment.
Siyanbola held that the court put an end to the union between Yetunde and Nathaniel because there was no more love between them and that the husband did not surface since Dec. 12, 2017, till date.
In her petition to the court, Yetunde, a resident of No 1, Bolorunduro Street, Iyana-Ajia, Ibadan, Oyo State, told the court that they got married on July 10, 2007, at Odeda Local Government Registry, Ogun State.
The petitioner tendered her marriage certificate as proof of her case.

The petitioner, therefore, prayed the court to dissolve the marriage, saying that the said marriage had broken down irretrievably,
The respondent was, however, not in court to defend the allegations brought against him.
The defence counsel to the petitioner, Mr Akin Akanbi, admitted the allegation to be true.
