Dry spell: For four years, my preacher husband denied me conjugal rights

A Kakamega court has dissolved a marriage over lack of sex in the relationship. Anne Nekoya Nalianya had gone to court seeking termination of her marriage to Nicodemus Vilemba Namusei who he accused of denying her conjugal rights. She told the court nothing could salvage the marriage and blamed her preacher husband for not being interested in sex for the last four years.

Anne further accused Nicodemus of being cruel to her, quarrelsome, abusive, and constantly threatening to commit suicide. The woman accused the husband of engaging in extramarital affairs while denying her conjugal rights. In nullifying the marriage, principal magistrate Angeline Odao noted that there was no possibility of reconciliation between the couple as none of them showed interest in pursuing the same.
