A 51-year-old man, Mr. Lukman Agoro, was alleged to have thrown his wife, Sadiat, out of their matrimonial home for giving birth to a baby girl.
Sadiat, who was dragged before an Agege customary court
by her husband for not allowing him to see his child, however said that
Lukman had warned her earlier that she should not venture to give birth
to a baby girl if she wanted to live under the same roof with him.
She added that her
husband once vowed that he would not be involved in the upbringing of
the child and that she (Sadiat) would raise the child at her parent
house.
The wife also informed
the court that barely three months after she gave birth to her
daughter, Lukman threw her belongings out, and claimed that he didn’t
have interest in the relationship any longer. “To my surprise, Lukman
came tomy parents house when my daughter was
exactly one year old claiming that he wanted to mark the little girl’s
birthday.” She added that her daughter ran away from him, because she
didn’t know him as a father. Meanwhile, the case was adjourned till
October 24, 2012 for further hearing.
