A stay-at-home husband, Gyang Gyang, on Friday, dragged his wife, Jemima, before a customary court in Nyanya, Abuja, on the grounds that she refused to disclose how much she earns as salary.

The man also alleged that his wife was not submissive to him and that she travelled often without informing him.

He told the court that, “As the man of the house, my wife is supposed to tell me when she’s travelling, but she travels whenever she wants without telling me,

“I only find out she has travelled when I don’t see her in the house. She doesn’t take orders from me and she disrespects me.”

He further told the court that, “My wife has never been a supportive wife. She left the upbringing of our children to me.

”I suffer from diabetes and hypertension. She has refused to disclose how much she earns as salary to me.”

He, therefore, prayed the court to dissolve his marriage before he died of high blood pressure.

The respondent, Jemima, a civil servant, denied the allegations.

The judge, Doocivir Yawe, advised the couple to reconcile, saying, “You have been married for over 27 years. At this point where you are supposed to be enjoying your retirement and your children, you are in court seeking a divorce, please try reconciliation before judgment is passed.”

He adjourned the case to November 8. (NAN)
