Adeyemo told the court that his wife does not take care of the children and the house.

“My wife is a lazy woman; she does not sweep the house, prepare food for the children or bath the children. I cook for the children,’’ he said.

He said he performed all marriage rites and the marriage had produced two children aged nine and five years.

Adeyemo, therefore, prayed the court to dissolve his marriage and grant the custody of the two children to him.
