Chief Ademola Odunade, the President of a Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan, on Thursday dissolved an 11 year-old marriage between one Nurudeen Akinpelu and Folake over sexual starvation and promiscuity.
Odunade granted custody of the two children produced by the union to the husband, Nurudeen and urged Folake to avoid further problems with the plaintiff.
“If Folake is interested in seeing any of the children, she should approach the court at anytime,” Odunade said.
The plaintiff, an Arabic teacher said that his spouse had cultivated the habit of starving him of sex.
“My lord, I am completely frustrated with this horrible experiences Folake had made me undergo over the past 11 years of our union.

“Whenever I ask her for this conjugal rite, Folake pushes me away, telling me to look elsewhere to satisfy my sexual urge.
