‘My wife is sleeping with our landlord' - Man tells court

A divorce seeking husband has told a court that his wife is sleeping with his landlord.

Adewale Akinshola, a 51-year-old civil servant, has prayed a Customary Court sitting at Iyana-Ipaja, Lagos State, to dissolve his marriage to his wife, Cynthia Akinshola, over allegations of infidelity.

Akinshola told the court that his wife has been having affairs with his landlord since 2011 and all efforts to make her stop has been in vain.

He said:

“I have evidence she was seeing the landlord. I noticed her ways weren’t straightforward.

There was a day my wife left the house around 5.30a.m. She said she wanted to get to work early. I was so curious that I trailed her.

I saw my wife sneak into my landlord's car and I entered a bus and followed them. My wife sat in the front, while the man drove. I wondered what their plan was. When they got to their destination, I came down from the bus and I received the shock of my life. My wife and her lover went into a restaurant."
