“He is the one that says I am old and should give another woman a chance, He makes life more difficult for me since he married the lady. I pray the court to separate us so that I can live comfortably,’’ she said.

The  45-year old respondent told the court that he agreed to the divorce, emphasisng that, his wife ‘forced’ him to marry another wife, and described the development as unfortunate, but cannot resist, because of the situation

”My lord, it is unfortunate that I married another wife because it is morally and spiritually wrong to marry more than one wife. My wife pushed me to it, I have endured too long and I do not want to commit adultery. I agree to a divorce because she never appreciated all what I have done for her, ’’ he said.
