A police sergeant, Wuraola Babalola, has petitioned a Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan seeking the dissolution of her marriage of 14 years to Oladimeji over alleged attempt to use her for money ritual.
Babalola said her husband uses different kinds of charms whenever he wants to sleep with her.

The petitioner also told the court that Oladimeji physically assaults her.
“At any slightest opportunity, he strips me, prevents my relatives from seeing me,” she said.
“He puts charms in my private part whenever he wants to sleep with me. He also surrounds my plate of food with charms, saying he uses it to protect me.
“He has also buried different kinds of charms in the house chanting my name. My first child saw him do that.”

The police officer also claimed she had evidence of Oladimeji’s charms and videos of the assault on her mobile phone.
The respondent was, however, not in court to answer to the allegations.
The bailiff informed the court that he had on several occasions served hearing notices on Oladimeji who lives at Oluyole Estate in Ibadan.
After listening to the testimony of the petitioner, President of the court, Ademola Odunade, dissolved the marriage on grounds of threat to life.

He granted custody of the three children to the petitioner and ordered the respondent to pay N15,000 as the monthly feeding allowance.
Odunade ordered the clerk of the court to ensure that a copy of the judgement is sent to Oladimeji.
