There was a mild drama at the Customary Court, Agege, Lagos on Tuesday
after a wife refused to release the house keys to her husband on the
order of the court.
The husband, Otunba Fatunwase Aderemi, who is the petitioner, is begging
the court to dissolve his marriage to Esther Aderemi and grant his
request to take custody of his 6-year-old daughter.
The husband, at the last hearing also begged the court to order his wife
to allow him access to the house since he paid the rent.
The court denied the petitioner’s request to take the child into his
custody as the child was still very young and ordered the respondent to
release the house keys to the husband pending the outcome of the matter.
At today’s hearing, the husband told the court that his wife flouted all
orders given to them and had continued to make more trouble with him.
