A 56-year-old man identified as Inisanmi Ayeniberu, has accused his wife of giving birth like a goat.
The man told an Igando Customary Court in Lagos to dissolve his six-year-old marriage with his wife, Chinwe, noting that she gives birth almost every year.
He said; “I thought we would be happy in the presence of each other, not to have the house filled with babies.”

He again alleged that Chinwe was quarrelsome, disrespectful, and intolerant.
Chinwe, a trader and a one-time widow denied the allegation, claiming that her husband lured her into marrying her.
She said;
“He never told me I won’t give birth for him. He got married to me knowing I had four children for my late husband. He promised to take care of me and my children, but they were all lies. I took in sometime in 2018 and gave birth to a healthy boy. Immediately my husband came to see that boy, he passed away.
“My husband gave me pills when I became pregnant and unknown to me it was to terminate my pregnancy. I bled for almost two weeks and lost that baby. He later told me that it was embarrassing for him to have a baby at old age.
He said he only got married to me to be having s*x with him, washing his clothes, cooking and caring for him, and I asked him what would be my gain in the marriage and that it wasn’t possible.”
The court’s president, Mr Koledoye Adeniyi, hence adjourned the case to July 28.
