A 55-year-old Nigerian man, Chike Eze, has asked the Customary Court of Appeal in Lagos State to dissolve his marriage before he kills his wife.
In a petition he filed before the court, Eze said there is no more love between him and his wife Racheal, and he wants their marriage annulled as soon as possible.
Appearing before the court on Monday, February 10th, Eze prayed the court to dissolve his marriage to Rachael as the dissolution will “save him from committing murder’’.
According to him, she has not given him peace in the last two years.

Speaking, Eze said: “She is pushing me to the wall. If I should retaliate, I will kill her. I don’t want to kill her so that I will not be charged to court for murder. The best option is for the court to end our marriage so that we can go our separate ways.
He presented pictures of injuries and scars to the court as pieces of evidence. He said that his wife went out on various occasions without his consent and whenever he queried her, she would say that she owned her body and could do anything with it.
In her defense, Rachael denied all the allegations and accused her husband of infidelity. The case was later adjourned to a later date for further hearing.
