In a shocking domestic showdown, a woman has reportedly dragged her husband to court, seeking a divorce over what she calls an “outrageous” N150,000 monthly allowance he gives to his mother. The marital dispute, which has set tongues wagging, highlights the fiery tensions that can erupt when family obligations collide with spousal expectations.
According to sources close to the family, the wife claims the monthly sum is excessive and is straining their household finances, calling into question the husband’s priorities. The husband, meanwhile, maintains that supporting one’s parents is a sacred duty and insists that the allowance is non-negotiable.
Legal experts note that such cases often spark nationwide debates over marital roles, financial responsibilities, and cultural expectations. Social media has erupted, with netizens divided: some side with the wife, citing modern marriage dynamics, while others defend the husband’s filial devotion.
As the courtroom battle looms, insiders fear this could become a landmark case, setting precedent for how far spousal patience stretches when family loyalties clash.
