How My Wife Always Tears My Boxers To Rape Me” – Retired Soldier Tells Lagos Court

A retired soldier, Gafaru Rodoye has raised the alarm about his wife’s penchant for raping him violently every time she wants sexual intercourse.  Rodoye made the revelation of his wife’s fetish for rough s*x to an Igando Customary court in Lagos.


He told the court on Tuesday that his wife, Idiat, with whom he had five children in their 20-year old marriage, always raped him.  The petitioner said that his wife was in the habit of threatening his life through beating and that he was afraid she might kill him one day.  Gafaru said that his wife poured hot water on the new wife that was brought for him from the village by his family.

He begged the court to end their 20-year old marriage, saying he was no longer in love as his life was in danger.  However, 44-year-old Mrs Idiat Rodoye, business woman, denied all the allegations. She said her husband was a womaniser.

The mother of five said she never raped her husband, that it was normal for husband and wife to make love.

The respondent said that she did not beat her husband, but it was her husband that was always beating her.

Idiat said that her husband removed the plasma television, air conditioner and disconnected the electricity supply from her flat, leaving her and the children in darkness.

She urged the court to grant her husband’s wish that she too was tired of the marriage and no longer in love.

The Court President, Mr Adegboyega Omilola, adjourned the case to April 5 for further hearing.
