Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A hairdresser, Nnenna Osu, has approached the Customary Court in Nyanya, seeking a divorce from her husband, Frank Osu, over alleged domestic violence and abandonment.<\/p>\n

She accused her husband of subjecting her to physical abuse reminiscent of a child\u2019s punishment.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy husband always beats me whenever we have a little misunderstanding. He uses a cane to beat me like a child, leaving lots of bruises on my body,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Nnenna also disclosed that her husband borrowed a sum of N350,000 from her, promising to repay the loan but abandoned her and their children and left the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy husband collected my money and traveled out of the country, leaving me and our children helpless.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I called him, he said I should move on with my life. That he has found a better wife over there, and that he has moved on,\u201d Nnenna lamented in her petition.<\/p>\n

In her plea to the court, she sought custody of their children and requested the dissolution of the marriage. Additionally, she urged the court to order Frank to provide a monthly upkeep of N50,000, along with covering their school fees.<\/p>\n

The respondent was notably absent during the court proceedings.<\/p>\n

The presiding Judge, recognizing the gravity of the matter, adjourned the case until February 1 for a comprehensive hearing.<\/p>\n
