Mrs. Fatimah Adebayo, a 35-year-old woman, on Monday urged an Ikorodu Customary Court, Lagos, to dissolve her 14-year marriage to Mr. Segun Adebayo, over alleged placement of sexual protective charm called “thunderbolt’’ on her.
The petitioner, a fashion designer who resides at Baiyeku Road, Igbogbo in Ikorodu, prayed the court to end the union to save her life.
Fatimah further said Adebayo had assaulted her several times, adding that he was a threat to her life.
“My husband laced me with thunderbolt, known in our local parlance as ‘magun.’
“I got to know through an old man in my area and through my father when I was sick.
“But I smartly lured him to sleep with me. On that fateful day, after making love to me, he tumbled twice, and I called for neighbours’ help.
“Besides, my husband beats me, he does not trust me and he does not take care of our children.
“Please, save me from this marriage, as living with him is now dangerous for me. This is because he can kill me,’’ she said.
When asked to comment on the allegations, Adebayo, 43, prayed the court to allow his counsel speak on his behalf.
However, the President of the court, Mrs. Omolara Abiola, said it was important to either debunk or accept the allegations before a third party could come in.
Abiola adjourned the case till March 7 for further hearing.
