The Lagos state govt reacts to viral video of a man claiming a customary court member impregnated his wife after he approached the court to resolve his marital crisis. In the viral video, the man who gave his name as Oluyemi Ayeni claimed that he had an issue with his wife Doyin Rukayat Okunubi and that she moved out of his house. He said they only had marriage introduction done, however he was advised by his wife's father to invest in her business of establishing a school located in Egbeda, which he did with the sum of N5 million.  He said with the success of the business, he couldn't control his wife again and this began to cause a rift in their marriage. He said his wife moved out of their matrimonial home and rented an apartment of her own. He alleged that within two months of moving out, his wife began to have affairs with men. ''After ten months I took her to court thinking that I would be able to resolve this matter through alternative dispute resolution. The judge, Doctor Rasaq Ishola Adeyemi, hurriedly dissolved my marriage and got that woman impregnated three months after the dissolution of my marriage. The woman is now carrying nine-months pregnancy for that man. What really pains me is that in the rulings, this man denied me access to my children, tha tI can only see the children in the school premises once in a week. The same children are in his custody. He took over the thriving business of that woman, denied me access to my children, impegnated the woman and still wants to send me to jail.'' Ayeni accused Okunubi of asking the police might to get him arrested, detained, arraigned in court seven in Ogba on the charges of assault and that he spent two days in Kirikiri. Reacting to the viral video, the  Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) in a statement released said it was aware of the case and that the incident happened between 2014/2015.
