My wife’s pregnancy is not mine – Man tells court

A middle-age man, Samson Musa, on Wednesday appealed to an Ojo Customary Court sitting in Lagos to end his three-year-old marriage to his wife because she is pregnant for another man.

The complainant who has been married to his wife identified as Tunrayo for three years is accusing her of infidelity. Musa who claimed his wife’s six month pregnancy was not his said, “I can’t live with a woman that is promiscuous, sleeping around, troublesome and does not have any regard for me,” he said.

He further asked the court to grant him custody of their two-year-old son.

“Tunrayo cannot take good care of our albino son,” he said.
The aggrieved man stressed that their son has been given so many names as a result of his wife’s promiscuous lifestyle at the motor park where she trades.

“I can’t take it any longer,” he said.
While responding to the allegation by her husband, 38-year-old Tunrayo, appealed to the court not to consider Musa’s claim, stressing that he abandoned the family and was not providing well enough for her and the family.

She said, “My husband does not take care of me and that is why I find myself roaming the streets because of no accommodation.

“I was even raped twice in a container while hawking water in sachet popularly known as `pure water.’ Yes, I cannot say who owns this pregnancy, but as for my son, I will not release him. After all, Musa did not pay any bride price on me.”

The court’s President, Chief Joseph Ogunmola, however cautioned Musa to go back and live up to his tasks as a responsible father and husband.

Ogunmola consequently directed that a test be carried out as that will put to rest the issue of ownership of the pregnancy.

He however adjourned the case till June 22.

Pressure Group to Buhari: Remove Oil Subsidy and Recover Our Stolen Funds

Pressure group, Campaign for Democracy, CD, has urged the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, to put in place a high-powered government machinery to recover stolen public funds and consider total removal of fuel subsidy.

Senate Directs Its Committee on Petroleum to Investigate Fuel Scarcity

The Nigerian Senate today directed its committees on Petroleum Resources (Upstream and Downstream) to commence an investigation into the causes of the persistent fuel crisis currently ravaging the country.

The directive was handed down after a motion moved by the Deputy Senate Majority Leader, Senator Abdul Ningi, who prayed the senate to pay attention to the fuel crisis that has created hardship for Nigerians.
Responding, the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, who presided over plenary, said since Ningi raised the motion under personal explanation, the senate would not debate it but rather approve his prayers.

Ekweremadu said: “Ningi’s prayers are simple and straightforward. He is asking us, as representatives of the people, to direct our committees on upstream and downstream to find out what is currently going on in the oil sector and possibly find a way of addressing it.

“In that regard, we now ask our committees on Petroleum Resources (Upstream and Downstream), to find out what is going on and what the government is doing about it and report back on Tuesday next week. That is our wish.”

In moving the motion, Ningi said since the Senate still have the mandate of the people until June 1, its responsibility to intervene in the unfortunate development remains.

He said: “We need to know whether fuel scarcity has come to stay. We need to know whether it has become part of our lives. We need to plan.

“By planning and talking about it, we are now sensitizing Nigerians to brace up for the impending issue of fuel scarcity whether it is going to be here permanently or temporary.

“But we can’t know all these things until we hear from the experts. Therefore my prayer is to ask the committee on downstream and upstream to come up with explanations next Tuesday through which Nigerians will know and plan their future.

“Otherwise, I think it’s legally and morally wrong to keep silent about it, sweep it under the carpet and to continue to believe these things are usual.”
