I Went On Sex Strike To Punish My Wife’s Bad Attitude – Husband Tells Court
December 2nd, 2016 – I Went On Sex Strike To Punish My Wife’s Bad Attitude – Husband Tells Court
Sherifat Asimiyu, a sex-starved wife today approached an Ibadan Customary Court sitting in Agodi to dissolve her 10-year-old marriage with Mr Saheed Asimiyu.
Sherifat told the court that apart from starving her of sex, Saheed was also in the habit of beating and biting her whenever they have domestic quarrels.
The complainant said she could no longer cope without sex, as her husband had not slept with her in the last six months.
“There is no doubt about his ability to provide food, money and other material things for me and the two children of the union but I am not satisfied with all these without sex.
“He abandoned me deliberately, I cannot take it anymore because I am still young and I see no reason for his action.
“To make the issue worst, he was in the habit of beating and biting me whenever we have misunderstanding over minor issues,” she alleged.
The husband, who is a motor spare parts dealer, admitted that he had starved his wife of sex, as he was on “sex strike” in the last one month, to punish the woman for her bad character.
According to him, his action is to punish the complainant and make her to turn a new leaf.
The husband told the court that he had warned her several times to stop associating with bad friends, but had ignored him.
Saheed also told the court that he would not prevent his wife from getting the divorce she asked for, “if that is what will make her satisfied”.
Chief Mukaila Balogun, the president of the court upheld the prayer of the woman and approved the dissolution of the marriage.
The judge ordered the defendant to be paying N6,000 to Sherifat as monthly allowance for the upkeep of their two children.

Bad judgement from the court! This is not a justice but pure injustice. Very unsound verdict. How is the court expecting the now divorced wife to take care of those two kids with N6,000 in this financial crisis that has hit the country? A single 5 litre of granut oil was sold for N3,500 more than $7 US dollars just yesterday in the market. School fees of those children is their. Clothing them is another tough challenge. What about when they fall sick who will take care of them? So how is this woman going to cope with this kind of weighty responsibility on her neck with that peanut?
Starving a woman of sex is not the best solution to resolving marital friction in the household. In fact the very opposite usually settle the case fast. Meaningful discussions using a low tone of voice with each other at night on the bed after which the act of hot sex is carried out will most likely end their bitterness against each at that point in time paving the way for peaceful reconciliation. So how can a man starve his wife of sex? For what?
If he’s willing to go for other babies out their,then he should be willing and ready to shoulder more responsibility and take care of his two children and not just the payment of N6000 monthly that the court ordered him to pay. He is the one that starved the wife of sex for six month so let him pay for more for accepting divorce. Sometimes the judges are really adding to the break up of many homes in the country by their flawed,inaccurate and unsound verdict they do pass when it comes to marital issues in the court.
