My wife pushed me to marry another wife – Pastor tells court

Pastor Olusola Opoola had approached Grade ‘C’ Customary Court at Inalende Ibadan to divorce his wife of 16 years and marry another wife.
Pastor Opoola said he would not have contemplated marrying another wife if his wife had not starved him of s*x
He said, “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.
Earlier, Adeola, 36, who had approached the court for divorce, accused her husband of 16 years of snatching the wife of his evangelist.
