“When he was studying at the Teachers’ Institute in Bayelsa, he
did not have money to take care of the family; I was frying and
selling chips in Bayelsa and even borrowed money for his studies.
”When we had our first child, it was my elder sister who paid
for the hospital bill and took care of me and the baby for three months.
The situation remained same until 1991 when he took up an appointment
with the NNPC, as a manager. Now, he decided to marry a younger woman
and calls me a witch saying I am old.”
She further claimed that her husband constantly beats her, leaving her with injuries.

She said: “He had one day threatened me with a knife in the
presence of our tenants who rescued me as he would have stabbed me with
the knife.”
Her husband, Mr Emmanuel Amagala however, denied the allegation of
assault story on his wife but told the court he abandoned the house he
built and decided to live alone in a rented apartment because of her
incessant nagging attitude which he described as unbearable.
The Judge however asked the couple to go home and make their marriage work.
