God Told Me To Divorce My Wife – Says Pastor Accused Of Sleeping With Deacon’s Wife

I Married Him Because I Want Children, I Hates Sex – Pastor’s Wife Confesses In Court


A cleric, Pastor Joshua Ibeneme, on Wednesday appeared at an Igando Customary Court in Lagos State to seek dissolution of his 21 year old marriage to his wife, Uzoamaka.
He alleged that she had sex with two of his members and messing around with men.
“My wife had an affair with two of my members, a deacon and a bishop. Both boasted, telling other members that they slept with my wife because she enticed them.
 
“God told me to divorce her or else she will destroy my ministry,” he alleged.
The petitioner said his wife denied him sex for five years.
“My wife starved me of sex for over five years. Whenever I wanted to sleep with her, she would give one excuse or the other. In fact, she had moved out of my room to another room. But she gives it to my members freely,” he alleged.
The 53-year-old pastor said Uzomaka always accused him of having an affair with members, who came for counselling.
The respondent denied having sex with members, but accused her husband of infidelity.
“It is women who cause our frequent fighting. They are the problems in our home. My husband’s lust for them is high.
“I never slept with the two men he alleged had sex with me. They just want to tarnish my image. My husband is dating the wife of the deacon,” she alleged.
The mother of three said she starved her husband of sex because she hated sex, adding that she married him because she wanted children.
The 45-year-old teacher begged the court not to dissolve her marriage, saying she still loved him.
The court President, Akin Akinniyi, urged the couple to maintain peace and adjourned the case till May 10 for judgment. [NAN]
