Olalekan, in his petition, told the court that his wife had over a period of time subjected him to sexual starvation.
“Anytime I propose lovemaking to Modinat she shunned me as if I am not entitled to it.
“All my effort at making her reason with me failed because her parents and relatives that I reported the incident to could not pacify her to change her attitude.
“Despite my love for her, I am now heartbroken, frustrated and completely disillusioned.
“Since I married her four years ago, she hasn’t conceived. Since we got married, I have always afforded her royal treatment by providing for all her needs.
“In fact, I set up a business of N1.6 million for her,” Olalekan said.
However, Modinat opposed Olalekan’s divorce petition, saying she was still in love with him.
“I did all I could to conceive to the extent that I even underwent a surgery to correct the abnormality, but it was to no avail.
“I was staying in Abidjan, where I was prosperous before I travelled down to Nigeria to marry him.
“Before coming here, I had sent Olalekan several huge sums of money to build a house for me, but he somehow mismanaged the fund and did not build it to my taste.
“That was the reason why I started starving him sexually ,” she said.
