Nigeria : Woman wants divorce because her husband "wets the bed"
Businesswoman Juliana Okoli, told the court she
"is tired of living in the same house as him".
“When he wakes up in the middle of the night and
is feeling cold because of the urine on the bed, he places my clothes on the
urine to protect himself from the cold," she told the court in Abuja,
Nigeria.
She continued: “My husband is also a drunk;
whenever he drinks, he bed wets even many more times before morning and when I
talk to him about it, he starts beating me.
“He sometimes chases me and our children out of
the house in the middle of the night.
“My husband has left all the financial
responsibility of the family to me; he does not even know how much the children
are paying as school fees", Punch.com reports.
Okoli said she built the house the couple are
living in with "her own money".
She has asked the court to grant divorce and give
her custody of her children.
Her husband denied the majority of the
allegations, but admitted he does urinate in bed sometimes.
The court has adjourned the case until May 16.
