My Husband Uses Aboniki, Dusting Powder As Lubricants During Love-Making” Wife Tells Court

The Igando Customary Court in Lagos State
was left in shock on Friday after hearing from
a 43-year-old woman, Omolara Acchoyame,
how her husband used different types of
substances as lubrication during intercourse.
Omolara, who had filed for divorce
proceedings against her husband, Solomon
Acchoyame, alleged that her husband
exhibited strange behaviours while making
love to her.
According to her, he waits till she is asleep
and without waking her up, has intercourse
with her; something she never enjoyed.
Omolara, still speaking on their s*xual history
claimed that whenever they are making love,
her husband had three things which he used
for lubrication – aboniki balm, mentholatum
and dusting powder – adding that these things
made intercourse with her husband a
torturing experience.
She testified that she met her husband 14
years ago and bore him three children, adding
that their major quarrel was based on the fact
that she doesn't know what he's doing for a
living.
"We fought most times before I left home
because I don't know what he does for a
living. He goes to his village three times a
week and I don't know the reason for this
since his parents are dead and when he
comes back, he would say he does not have
any money.
"I would go to my sister to borrow money for
him for his next trip. Yet, he will come back
and curse me and my family and he doesn't
come home until midnight.
"My husband does nothing for a living. Please
dissolve the marriage so that I can start my
life all over again," she said.
In his defence, the 44 year-old husband stated
that when he first met his wife at the
University College Hospital (UCH) in Ibadan,
Oyo State, he was doing well and it was his
money that saw his wife through university.
However, after a while, Solomon noted that he
began to experience financial difficulties and
he couldn't complete his education.
"I want to perform my obligations as a father
and husband, but I am handicapped," he said.
The case was adjourned till September 25.
