In Ogun, a man and his brothers allegedly br*talize his wife for confronting his mistress.
Olusola Adepitan, the owner of a school, has been accused of conspiring with his brothers to b*at up his wife, Rasheedat Adepitan, after confronting his claimed mistress in Ogun State’s Ibafo area.

The pair has four children and has been married for 25 years. “My parents own a school in the Aseese mowe/Ibafo area of Ogun State,” one of their children said. This woman was recommended to my mother by a student’s parent as someone who can assist with cooking and laundry. To assist her, my mother offered her a space on one of our properties immediately across from the school, where she may sell food and make a living.

Last year, during the COVID lockdown, my mother informed me that my father no longer eats in the house and that this woman prepares for him in the morning, midday, and evening, and that she also cooks for his brothers (they all live in that same area). It persisted into this year, and neighbors began to draw my mother’s attention to it. So my mother requested her to leave the room, but she refused, claiming that she now reports to my father rather than my mother. My father stated that he had collected rent from her and that she was unable to go.

This woman’s son attends my parents’ school, and in her rage, I told her to remove her child from the school. My father, on the other hand, stated that because she sent the youngster away from school, he will take the amount of that boy’s school fees from her salary. That’s when she snapped and went to confront the woman on October 6. It got he*ted, and the woman’s belongings were spilt as a result. She phoned the police to arrest my mother, but when my mother called her association of school owners (NAPS), the situation was quickly settled.

My father approached my aunty at the police station, accusing her of encouraging my mother, and he began b*ating her inside the station. My uncles, Debo and Femi, t*cked my mum and aunty when they got home. They b*at my mother with sticks because she is sitting on their brother’s property. My father simply stood there with this mistress, watching and saying, “She got what she deserved.”
