On Monday, an Agbarho Customary Court in Ughelli-North Local Government Area, Delta, dissolved the 29-year-old marriage between a former Minister of Science and Technology, Grace Ekpiwhre and Chief Peter Ekpiwhre.
The marriage was blessed with a daughter.
The former minister had approached the court for dissolution of the marriage saying she had lost interest in it. She also told the court that Ekpiwhre, in 1985, paid N120 as her bride price according to the customs of the area.
Granting the dissolution, president of the court, Mrs Stella Okah, said the dissolution of the marriage came on the heels of the conviction that there had been strained love between the couple for a long time and the former minister being no longer interested in the marriage.
The court ordered a refund of the bride price which was done immediately as the eldest man in the Minister's family, Chief Samuel Salubi, immediately dipped his hands into his wallet and refunded the money.
