Adebayo on Friday begged a Customary
Court sitting in Mapo area of Ibadan to
pardon him for impregnating Omolara
Ojeyemi, a legal wife of Abiodun
Ojeyemi.
Adebayo, who is a resident of Alakuko
area of Alagbado in Lagos State
confessed that Omolara was his
concubine and that he had been
sleeping with her for the past 12 years.
“My lord, anytime Omolara left her
husband in Ibadan, she used to come
to meet me in Lagos where we
usually have fun. Sometimes, she
came after her closing hour in her
office and returned to Ibadan the
following morning.
“Omolara only told me that she and
her husband were no more in good
terms even though she had already
had two children. I swear on the holy
bible, I didn’t intend to destroy her
relationship with her husband, she is
just my girlfriend.
“The pregnancy in her tommy belongs
to me, I was the one that deflowered
her during my NYSC days. I followed
her into the court to ensure that her
union with Abiodun is dissolved today
not that I am daring the court’s
power,” Adebayo explained.
Adebayo however, apologized to the
court for causing so much disharmony
in Abiodun’s family and for having
unlawful sexual intercourse with a
housewife.
The president of the court, Ademola
Odunade dissolved the seven year-old
marriage between Omolara and
Abiodun Ojeyemi and ordered Abiodun
to take custody of their two children.
Odunade held that the society was fast
undergoing an unprecedented decay in
morality especially how adultery was
ruining marriages.
“It is so tragic that a man can
deliberately impregnate a housewife
with children. It has never happened
in the history of this court that a
concubine will accompany his
mistress to the court with the
intention of daring us, saying nothing
will happen.
“In the interest of peaceful living, the
union between Omolara and Abiodun
has ceased to be henceforth. Abiodun
shall take custody of the two children
produced by the union,” the
magistrate stated.
Narrating his ordeal, Abiodun who was
a staff of Nigerian Breweries said that
Omolara, his wife, was an unrepentant
fornicator despite his genuine love for
her.
“My lord, ever since I got married to
Omolara seven years ago, little did I
know that she had been occupied
with all sorts of escapades in the
name of going to church vigil.
“What I know is that she usually tell
me that she was going for church
vigil and I never had any reason to
suspect her because I trusted her.
“However, since around June this
year, Omolara started starving me of
usual sexual intercourse between
husband and wife. Before I eventually
knew the truth, Omolara had told me
that her concubine was her uncle and
I was relating with him well as an in-
law.
“One day, I got home and discovered
that she had packed all the property
away including mine. In fact, I have
never failed to perform my
responsibility as a husband to her and
as a father to our children.
