But sincerely,this is indeed the “truest” confession I’ve ever heard from a man. .This was how P.M News reported it: The Agege Grade ‘A’ Customary Court was thrown into laughter
recently when a petitioner, Alhaji Azeez, openly told the court that
his wife, Mrs. Idayat Azeez, beats him each time there was any
disagreement between them in the house.
The
petitioner also added that his wife gave birth to four children and all
of them are wayward due to the fact that she loves her work more than
her family. He said: “I will never forgive my wife because she beats me
so much to the extent that we have not been sleeping together on the
same bed again for some time.”
He
pleaded with the court to caution his wife because she was the one
controlling him in the house and does not allow him to discipline the
children over of their bad behaviour. Reacting to the petitioner’s
claims, his wife, Idayat Azeez, confirmed that she used to beat her husband whenever they fight, but for a reason.
She
said any time there is disagreement between them, her husband’s elder
sister usually throws out her belongings from her matrimonial home. The woman added that her husband abuses her anytime she reports the children’s behaviour to him.
She also added that he does not give the children money for food. Mrs. Azeez said she had to treat her husband that way because all the responsibilities are shouldered by her, including the maintenance
of the house. On his part, the president of the court, Mr Emmanuel
Sokunle, advised that any disagreement between the couple should not be
made known to their extended families.
He urged them to train their children well because “they are the future
leaders”. He thereafter instructed the couple to end their disagreement
before returning to the court… The matter was adjourned till 1 Dec,
2012.
