“As the man of the house my wife is supposed to tell me know when she’s travellng but she travels whenever she wants, without telling me,
“I only find out she has travelled when I don’t see her in the house. She doesn’t take orders from me, and she disrespects me.” He said.
He also told the court that his wife does not contribute to the welfare of the family.
“My wife has never been a supportive wife. She left the upbringing of our children for me.
”I suffer from diabetes and hypertension. She has refused to disclose how much she earns as salary to me.
”She is not contributing to the welfare of the family,” he said.

The respondent, Jemima a civil servant, who was in court however denied the allegations.
The Presiding judge, Doocivir Yawe, advised the couple to reconcile, saying,
