Pastor Taiwo had filed for divorce which Mrs. Taiwo was responding to.
Nigertian Tribune reports:
“My husband is a womaniser; he slept with two of my friends,’’ Iyabo told the court, adding that Olusoji had many concubines.
“Whenever I confronted him on his escapades with my friends, he would tell me to do my worst,” she said.
The mother of one said she was fed up with the marriage.

his life and blackmailing him.He alleged that she discouraged his church members from attending his church.
“My wife is fond of damaging my reputation in the presence of my church members,” he said.
The cleric also alleged that his wife sent thugs to beat him.
