[size=16pt]Cleric Disowns Wife Of 15 Years In Court[/size] By Omobola Tolu-Kusimo IT was drama at Ketu Grade 'B' Customary Court when a clergyman with Celestial Church of Christ, Rufus Awoleye, told his wife of 15 years that he never married her but only assisted her as a girlfriend during the period. The plaintiff, Mrs. Wura Awoleye, Iya Ijo (mother of the flock) of the church had sued Awoleye, an evangelist-cum-shepherd for the dissolution of their marriage. Before the suit, the couple had lived together for 15 years. The union was blessed with a male child, who later died. Wura accused Awoleye of planning to kill her physically and spiritually, adding that "he beats me frequently and that there is no more love between us." Awoleye in his defence denied all allegations and claimed that they were meant to blackmail him. " The petitioner is my friend who on her own volition, decided to bear my surname for her convenience. There is no form of marriage either legal or customary between us and I challenge the petitioner to produce any such marriage documents in the court.' He disclosed that as a result of the suspicion of the petitioner that he was no longer serious with the relationship, she tried to burn his church. Awoleye therefore prayed the President of the court, Chief. Alfred Gbose to dismiss Wura's request because "there is no marriage of any kind between us," adding that "it was mere friendship." for SOURCE: [url=http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/news/article02//indexn3_html?pdate=040709&ptitle=Cleric%20Disowns%20Wife%20Of%2015%20Years%20In%20Court&cpdate=040709]Click here[/url] |

I'm tired of all these divorce cases. I just read one in the newspaper where a pregnant woman in Nigeria wants to divorce her husband and the man was even begging her to stay. Her reason for divorce? She doesnt love him anymore. God help us all. I dont know the whole story sha but the thing is alarming. http://www.thisdayonline.com/nview.php?id=152230 |

tpia.: @Tpia - Tpia Oh well, if man of God is unable hold his house together & keep his marriage what chance has congregation, huh? Did you notice the bit . . . no longer interested in the marriage and I don’t like him anymore,’’ she said in her petition."  Marriage is all about liking now . . . feelingsSomeone surely is doing a good job at dismantling the institution to its fabric & core If one is unable to keep a relationship with another that can be seen what chance has one keeping a relationship with a GOD, that's literally unseen . . . Seeing or reading about people in authority messing up always gets my goat - the FAR-TO-SEE Pharisee |
