“She’s fetish and kept fetish objects in her wardrobe. I have reported her to her family members but she refused to change.
“I sent her packing when I could no longer tolerate her troublesome ways.
“I thus urged the court to dissolve our marriage.
“I’m also no more interested in our marriage,” Tawa told the court.
“He took a second wife, rented an apartment for her and neglected me and our children.
“He’s a drunk and drinks himself to stupor everyday. When drunk, he would beat me mercilessly.
