{NEWS ZONE} ~ My Husband Deceived me into Marrying Him, Woman tells Court
Apanpan held that the marriage was laid on a deceitful foundation and it was bound to crash with time .
He , however , advised lovers to make sincerity the watchword of their relationships.
The court granted the custody of the two children produced by the union to Aminat and directed Kassim to pay a monthly allowance of N 8, 000 to Aminat for the children’ s upkeep .
“ Kassim will also be responsible for the children’ s education and other welfare, ” Apanpan said .
Aminat had in her petition said that her husband deceived her into marrying by lying to her about what he was not .
“ Before I eventually married Kassim, he never informed me that he had any children and when I found out that he did , he only admitted to having just one child.
“ However , I later discovered that he had three children as against one , ’’ she said .
Aminat also said that Kassim was not taking good care of the family.
She said that whenever he was returning home from work , he would buy beans cake ( akara ) and pap for the family which would serve as their meal for the day.
“ On few occasions that he gave us money, it was just N 200 for the children and me .
“ He was fond of giving untenable excuses for his irresponsibility, but he could afford to have three children out of wedlock , ” Aminat told the court .
However, the respondent who opposed the petition by his wife failed to advance convincing evidence for his argument.
Kassim, who resides at Ogbere-Ti -Oya area of Ibadan said that he was taking good care of his family to the best of his ability.
“ Aminat received the best medical treatments when she was delivered of our babies . ’’
Kassim said his wife ’ s problem was that she was always going to places in search of jobs.
“ I warned Aminat to stay with me, but she deserted me when I was ill, ’’ he said .
He said that he had the children Aminat referred to as children- out -of - wedlock during the three years that she abandoned him .
