Husband Files for Divorce: My Wife Lies A Lot, She's Deceitful

It's only a fool who doesn't understand what marriage is all about that goes in with the plan of deceiving his wife or her husband; you would just be using your hands to set yourself up for crisis.


Mr Ezekiel Onyemalu, an Accountant, has asked a Lagos State High Court sitting in Badagry to dissolve his 14 year marriage with his estranged wife, Joy, saying she is a liar and deceitful.

Onyemalu told the court presided by Justice Abolanle Okikiolu-Ighile that his wife used one of their child’s health challenge as an opportunity to be extorting money from him.

According to him, his wife had been living outside their matrimonial home for more than two years now, doing all sorts, and as such their marriage had broken down irretrievably.

He said, “I want the court to dissolve the marriage and grant me custody of my three children to enable me take proper care of them.”

Responding, the estranged wife Joy told the court that she left her matrimonial home due to family issues.

After listening to them, the trial judge adjourned the matter to May 25 for adoption of written addresses.
