Wife Sues Husband For Refusing To Eat Her Food

A woman, Mrs Joy Chukwu, on Thursday, dragged her husband, Noel Chukwu, before a customary court in Jikwoyi, Abuja, for refusing to eat the food she cooks for the family.

Mrs Chukwu told the court that, “I cannot continue to live under the same roof with this man. He has stopped eating my food. When I confronted him on the issue, he said he was aware of my plans to kill him.

“He also told members of his family that if he dies I should be held responsible.”

She further said, “My husband keeps telling my children terrible things about me. He told them that I am a prostitute. He told them that all the clothes and shoes I wear were bought by my lovers.”

She begged the court to dissolve the marriage and grant her custody of the children.

The respondent, a tricycle driver, denied all the allegations.

The Judge, Labaran Gusau, adjourned to September 21. (NAN)
