A 25-year-old housewife, Ruqayya Mukhtar on Thursday told a Shari’a court sitting at Rigasa, Kaduna to dissolve her marriage because her husband had lost interest in her and had not slept with her for two years.
The lady also complained that her husband, Naziru Hamza, usually assaulted and insulted her.
In his defence, the husband denied all the allegations, saying he tried his best to satisfy his wife s3xually.
“Since I go out to seek for daily bread, I sometimes come home late and tired but my wife doesn’t understand, she always demands intimacy.
“I oblige many times and sometimes beg her to be patient till the next morning and I don’t beat her,” he said.
The judge Malam Anass Khalifa asked the complainant if she had witnesses and she said yes.
He adjourned the matter until Sept. 5 for the complainant to present her witnesses.
