My husband denied me sex for 10 years - Woman

A 46-year-old business woman, Mrs Funmilayo Adedeji, told an Igando Customary Court in Lagos on Thurs­day that her husband had denied her sex for 10 years.
Funmilayo, who said this while responding to a divorce suit filed by her husband, Omotayo, added that he gave no reason for starving her of sex.
``My husband refused to make love to me since 2006, I don’t know his rea­son.
`` I have called members of my family and those of his family to intervene but he refused to change.
``My body yearns for sex but I don’t just want to commit adultery because I want all the children to be fathered by one man”, she said.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the mother of two said that she accused her husband of using their son for ritual because he started making money immediately the boy was born.
``My husband’s wealth came and money started booming after the birth of our baby. Our son is now 12-year-old, but he can neither walk nor talk.
``He wanted to divorce me so that I will no lon­ger persuade him to take the boy to the hospital for treatment.
`` He had always reject­ed medical treatment and had refused me approach­ing a church for deliver­ance.
``I always curse him be­cause he used to beat me; he once beat me to pulp and I landed in the hospi­tal”, she said.
She, however, begged the court not to grant her hus­band’s wish, saying she still loves him.
The petitioner, a 51-year-old clearing agent, had ap­proached the court seek­ing to end his 16-year-old marriage over defamation of his character by his wife.
``My wife won’t stop accusing me of using my physically-challenged son for money ritual.
``It is God that has blessed me with wealth; I never used my son”, he said.
Adedeji said that his wife was also good at fighting, claiming she has the habit of beating him in public.
