Ajejoke had approached the court through her counsel, Iyanu Olumuagun on October 11 2022 seeking dissolution of the marriage and also seeking an order that Muyiwa be ordered to leave her house and also that he returns all her properties.
During cross-examination, it was discovered that Muyiwa cannot be trusted and whose testimonies were full of lies.
“With all the answers given by the Respondent shows he is a liar and his evidence cannot be relied on: Why could the Respondent deny knowing a woman who gave birth to his first son known as Oni Samuel Okikiola? Why will he also deny knowing Modupe his first wife?” the Court said.
Muyiwa while in court said the Petitioner did not have a car but he acquired the car while cohabiting with her.
He informed the court that it was not true that it was only the Petitioner that is responsible for education and the welfare of the child.
