My husband beats me in public and on many occasions, he tore my clothes and left me naked - Lady cries

Mrs Modinat Sule has dragged her husband to a customary court seeking a divorce, on grounds that he physically assaults her occasionally and the fact that he doesn’t carry out his responsibilities as a husband.

According to Modinat, she currently derives no joy from her marriage to her husband, Ali Sule, whom she met in 2003. Describing him as a violent person, she alleged that he physically assaults her both at home and in public.
She also revealed that she nearly had a miscarriage because he beats her even when she was pregnant.

She said: “I derived no joy being married to my husband. He treated me with contempt and daily humiliated me. I met Ali in 2003 and later moved in with him. My husband is violent and was in the habit of fighting me at every given opportunity. No day passed without him beating me. Ali did not restrain himself from this brutish behaviour even when in the public. He beat me in the public and on many occasions tore my clothes and left me naked. He also beat me when I was carrying our last child’s pregnancy and I almost had a miscarriage."
