Christ Apostolic Church’s Pastor Segun Adeyinka has begged a Customary Court in Alimosho Lagos to end his marriage of 22 years to his wife, Mrs Folake Adeyinka because she is always disgracing him in front of his church members.
Yesterday, at the Alimosho Customary court, he said:
“My wife usually disgraces me in public and in my church. She has made many church members to leave the church. She doesn’t want to see people around me. She is making people to run away from me.
If my church members give me something, she believes she must have a share of it. We always fight. My wife also doesn’t want to hear that I don’t have money. Anytime I tell her that I don’t have money, she would start fighting me. I don’t earn salary.
It is what my church members give to me that we share at home. Still, she is not satisfied.”
He urged the court to give him custody of their four children. Before the case was adjourned to September 5, 2016 for further hearing, Folake responded by saying she still loved her husband and did not want the marriage to be dissolved.
According to her, she doesn’t have another husband, except Adeyinka. She added: “I’ll not disgrace him anymore in the public or in church. My husband and I have separated for two years now. He moved his things gradually out of our home until nothing remains.”..
