My Wife Arranged Armed Robbers To Rob And Kill Me – Husband Tells Court

A 57-year-old man, Solomon Fasade, has pleaded with an
Iyana-Ipaja Customary Court in Lagos to dissolve his 17-year-
old marriage to Abosede.
Mr Fasade, who lives in Ayobo, a Lagos suburb, is accusing
his wife of waywardness and threatening his life.
He claimed that she brought another man to their house.
"Two years after I was robbed, I later got to know my wife
arranged armed robbers to my house and went as far as
asking them to kill me," he said.
When the court's President, Mrs Shalewa Banjoko, asked him
how he got to know this, he said: "It was a neighbour who
told me the insect that eats up a leaf lives on the leaf. I was
confused and shocked."
The defendant, Mrs Fasade (43), said the only reason her
husband thinks she is a flirt is because she sells alcoholic
drinks.
"I sell alcoholic drinks in front of my husband's house but I
am not an harlot," she said.
She said she never planned to kill her husband.
"I will never kill him because he has been responsible for the
upkeep of the children I had from my previous marriage.
If it was my intention, I would have succeeded in doing so
because I cook for him and we sleep together on the same
bed. I will never do such.
I still need my husband because he is a good man," Mrs
Fasade said.
Banjoko ordered the couple to be peaceful and adjourned the
matter till Thursday.
