An Edo State woman and mother of four, Mrs. Tina Osadiaye, has narrated how she was made to swear juju three times to prove her innocence that she was faithful to her husband during his nine-year sojourn abroad.

Mrs. Osadiaye was full of celebration after a DNA test conducted by the Edo State Ministry of Justice showed that her four children belonged to her husband.

But her husband, David, insisted that she must move out of the house even as he offered to pay N20,000 monthly for the upkeep of the four children.

Speaking in a live radio programme, Mrs. Osadiaye vowed not to leave the house, insisting that she contributed financially to the erection of the building.

She said their marriage was blissful until her husband met a lady on Facebook after spending five years abroad.

Mrs. Osadiaye said her husband travelled abroad in 2015 and all was rosy until 2020, when he stopped sending money for the children's upkeep.

She said her husband made her swear to juju three times to prove that she had not slept with other men during the nine years he was away.

According to her, "He travelled in 2015 and returned in 2024. He took me to his family and used me to swear juju. The Pa Aigbe, whom he spoke about as my man friend, is actually my uncle. I cannot befriend my uncle.

"Since he left the house in 2024, I have not seen him. When he visited in 2024, the family settled us, and we stayed together, but he started showing a different attitude. He took all his property and left the country. He came this year and went for a DNA test. I still love my husband. Join me in praying for us to come back as husband and wife.

"The first time I went to swear, my family was not aware. When I went to Aiyelala, my family was not aware. It was the third time that my family was aware.

"We have been married for 16 years. Things changed after he met a lady online."
