A farmer, Mr Williams Famuyibo, on Wednesday prayed a Mapo Grade ‘A’ Customary Court in Ibadan to dissolve his 32-year-old marriage to estranged wife, Sola because she always beats him.
Famuyibo, who resides in Ibadan, said he can no longer tolerate the beatings.
In his words, “I ran away from our home in January.
“My lord, due to Sola’s unhealthy attitude and meanness towards me, I am now living with my brother.
