An Ilorin Area Court on Tuesday dissolved the  five- year-old marriage between one Aminat Tunde and her husband, Jimoh, over lack of a child in the union.
.
The 43-year-old house wife had approached the court to dissolve the marriage over the  lack of  a child  in the  marriage.
.
The petitioner, a resident of  Fate area of   Ilorin, also told the court that her husband was too harsh and fond of  placing  curses on her.
.
"My husband always blame me for  our situation and at times shouts  at me in  public," she said.
.
According to her, their marriage was contracted in 2008 and was yet to produce any child.
.
She prayed the court to end the marriage, saying her husband was making life difficult for her.
.
Her husband  did not object to the prayer of his wife, saying, she was free to go.
.
"My wife's  wayward life style has forced  me not to have any pity for her situation," he said.
.
He prayed the court to grant the prayer of his wife without any claim.
.
The presiding judge, Mr Ibrahim Abdulquadri, dissolved the  marriage and issued a certificate of divorce to the plaintiff. (NAN).

This is very serious. I thought they would've needed other important grounds for the divorce. Well its done already though
