TheNation reports that Onigbinde told the court that his wife is violent and stubborn, adding that she was unwilling to live peacefully with him.
When both appeared in court, the president of the court, Chief Odunade Adewuyi told the wife about the allegations leveled against her. When asked if she wanted the marriage to be dissolved, Mrs. Onigbinde replied in the negative, saying she did not know why a divorce suit was filed against her.
The court said: “If his (Onigbinde) prayers are heard by the court, do you think the marriage should not be dissolved? Which steps did you take after your husband complained about these allegations? Does he like your attitude? Let us say you are the husband and your wife says he doesn’t want something, won’t you know?”
The woman replied: “He said he doesn’t like it. He said I’m violent, but it is not so. I called the first child and told him about it. Also, I told my child and my husband’s elder brother. Our children went to beg him but he refused.”
The president and other members of the court, Elder E.A. Ogundipe and Chief Raifu Raji, advised her to maintain peace with her husband. Before the court adjourned hearing in the case, Onigbinde asked if his life would be protected because he was nearly attacked when one of the children and her husband came to his house.
