Woman Seeks to Dissolve Marriage After Husband Fails to Get Her Pregnant
A 53-year-old woman identified as Christy Adejo, has asked an FCT High Court to dissolve her seven-year marriage to her husband, Emmanuel Oluseye.
Her reason for the request was because Emmanuel had failed to impregnate her. At the time of their union, she was 46 years old and she made it known clearly to him that she wanted to have children right away. Christy has also accused her husband of not performing his role as a man to her sexually.
“He has had four children from two previous marriages, but I wanted a child of my own and he promised to support me. I was still menstruating when we got married, but sometimes he chooses not to sleep with me when I am ovulating. He traveled a lot and always gives the excuse of pressure of work. He claimed that he doesn’t know when I ovulate, yet I lived in the same room with him in the few years of our marriage. How do I begin to tell the court that sometimes we make love only four times in a year,” She complained
Christy told the court that they had gone to seek help medically and decided to try assisted conception. However, the cost of the treatment and the low success rate deterred them. She said she left her husbands house in 2015, well over 50 and still with no children. Christy pleaded with the court to dissolve the marriage officially as Emmanuel refused to show her the test results from his sperm count.
News-sources report that Emmanuel did not object to the marriage dissolution, claiming that if it was granted to his wife he was fine with it. He also said that his work as a veterinary doctor made being with his wife difficult as he shuttled between Minna, Abuja and Kwara, while she remained in Abuja.
If the court grants her prayers, so be it; it is God that gives children, I am not God. I have no problem, but she had issues; I even suggested that if it has to do with her eggs, we should meet her sister in South Africa to donate eggs to her, but she declined after sometime.” He told the court
Presiding judge, Justice Bello Kawu, adjourned the case til May 3 to continue the hearing.
