Abuja - For Abuja top banker, Onome, who is in her late thirties or early
forties, these are not the best of times. Reason? She eventually decided
a few days back to send her husband of 4 years packing after it became
obvious that the guy would not change. It all started when shortly after
their marriage in the city’s registry in AREA 10 Garki, Abuja Nigeria.
Less
than two weeks in the marriage, Dickson, her husband was always seen
cruising her car about town with young ladies while she was busy at
work. Reports of his activities came to her hearing but she turned a
deaf ear thinking it was out of jealousy as the guy is quite handsome
and a suave speaker.
When it became too much, she allegedly
confronted Dickson who claimed the girls were models he was trying to
groom. After much pressure, Dickson allegedly quit his job a scout for
models and events manager to face contracts which he got through hsi
wife. However, he went back to his ways and from then on, the couple had
been in and out of crisis.
It came to a head about two weeks back
when she decided that he had done enough damage. Once, when she went
abroad to deliver the couple’s only child, before she came back Dickson
had impregnated the house help who happens to be a distant cousin of
hers. She had to find a way to take care of the girl so that the story
would not become a major scandal. In the process, people from her church
were involved as much as Dickson’s own parents. The guy was said to
have promised to turn a new leaf and indeed showed elements of remorse
which made the wife to believe that he had indeed changed.
Based
on this, she was said to have secured a loan for him to start a small
business while she restored his use of her cars which he had been
forbidden from touching. About two months back, she had to travel out of
Abuja for some meetings and a course in Lagos. Given the nature of her
husband’s business she allegedly asked her mother to come and help
assist in taking care of her only child as the child was just recovering
from a major operation.
The old lady was said to have been taken
aback by her son-in law’s closeness to the house help and she mentioned
it to her daughter who with benefit of hindsight sent the girl packing
immediately. Two weeks after the girl was sent packing the househelp’s
relations came to the house to meet Dickson’s mother in law and inform
her that their daughter was pregnant for Dickson. Onome, according to
sources, flew back to Abuja from Lagos and went home to throw her
husband’s things out of the house swearing to get him arrested and rot
in jail if he ever come near the house again.
