Wife, Kafilat Abdul Lateef, on Tuesday, asked the Area Court, Centre-Igboro, Ilorin, to divorce her one-year-old marriage to Bukoye Abdullateef.

The wife, of 101, Abisam Area, Offa Local Government Area of Kwara, told the court that she was no longer interested in the marriage, due to lack of love and care. She, therefore, wants a divorce, custody of the only child in the marriage and monthly support fees of ₦50,000.

The husband, however, said that he was still interested in the marriage and didn’t want a divorce.

The presiding Judge, Toyin Aluko, noted that: “It is always disturbing whenever young couples that are new in marriage applies for divorce”.

Aluko urged the two parties to tolerate each other and try to live together in peace. The court adjourned the case until January 14, for report of settlement.
