My husband’s manhood not working - Mother of 5 tells court
A Lagos based mother of five, Blessing Mormah, has asked a customary court to dissolve her 25-year-old marriage over alleged inability of her husband to perform his sexual duties.
The 54-year-old beautician told an Igando Customary Court on Tuesday that she was fed up and could not continue with the marriage.
“My father forced me to love him.
“We have five children, two boys and three girls.
“Also, we always quarrel, we fight too often and anytime we fight he will tell me to leave his house.
“He forgets that quarrels abound in marriage and no one is perfect.
“I am fed up with this lifestyle so I moved out eventually.
“Also, his manhood is not working.
“When I found out, I took him to hospital and drugs were prescribed for him but he never used them.
“He always said nothing was wrong with him.

“Ok, if nothing is wrong, then perform your duty, but he cannot.
“He also has no regards for my family.
“When issues come up and they invite him, he will tell them that he would not go to their place.
“Instead, he would expect them to come over to his place, such a disrespect,” Mormah said.
She further told the court to grant her a divorce since they have been leaving apart.
According to her, even while they were living together, he never had her time.
He was always out to drink with his friends.
She also told the court that they have been living apart for a year and that the court should grant her the sole custody of their last child, who is six years old.
The respondent, Mr David Mormah, was not available to give his own account.
The President of the court, Mr Koledoye Adeniyi, later adjourned the matter to May 12 for judgement.
