A lawyer has recounted how one of his pregnant clients died after withdrawing a divorce case in court. The lawyer identified as Bolanle Cole took to Twitter claiming that a man called on behalf of his daughter in the UK, regarding the dissolution of her marriage.
His daughter who later became a client reached out and a petition case was filled at High Court Ikorodu.
A week after the divorce case was filed, his client, husband, pastors and other family members had a meeting and concluded that the couple would sort their issues, out of court.
Bolanle Cole added that his client’s father called him yesterday that her husband hit his 5months pregnant wife, leading to her death. Read below:
“WE LOST HER
Sometimes last year, her father called me that her daughter in UK will call me to institute a case for dissolution of her marriage.
She eventually called me and I did the needful and the petition was filed at High Court Ikorodu.
A week after I filled the Petition, her husband, herself and other family members requested to have meeting with me so, we scheduled a zoom meeting.
Some pastors from UK joined the meeting and it was resolved that peace will be brokered.
Thereafter, she sent me a mail to discontinue the case… though I never appeared in court until the matter was struck out….
Just yesterday, I was told that her husband hit her at her tommy with five months pregnancy which led to her death.
Her father called me yesternight to send those documents I filed in court as he wants to send it to some investigating authorities in UK…
Do I believe that the husband hit her… weh, the pictures I have on my phone during my conversations with them give credence to their history of domestic violence.
RIP HOPE.”
