In a lengthy read, the man said his wife took advantage of the Canadian criminal justice system, which is not sympathetic to domestic abuse claims.
“…Please share my story, I am a doctor married to a doctor and we recently immigrated to Canada.
…We ended up separating when we arrived in Canada about 4 months later. She even went as far as to involve me in the criminal justice system here, which is not sympathetic to claims of domestic abuse…”

While admitting that they had arguments and that he was controlling, the man said he never hit his estranged wife, who hails from Edo.
“I admit we had arguments, and I accept that because I am older than her, I may have lorded some authority over her. My controlling behaviour was wrong, and I apologize. But I never for once hit her. It felt to me like a set up…”
He further accused her of being abusive and recounted how she got entangled in a N10 million loan while she was in Nigeria.
“However, when it came to finances, my wife was abusive. She became entangled in a loan cycle of approximately 10 million naira, which she used for self-care over the course of eight months
“I was unaware of this because I was not in the country at the time. This money was intended to be her personal contribution to the proof of funds for permanent resident immigrants, which she squandered without anything to show for it. I must add that my wife is not the fashionable type nor the type that spends money on herself. I was livid when I found out about the loan and even sought to end the marriage because of her recklessness. She used Canadian immigration as a bargaining chip, claiming that if I did not provide funds for proof of funds, she would not travel with men and the children…”
Doctor on whereabouts of estranged wife
The father of two added that she placed a restraining order on him, which prevents him from reaching her.
“As I speak to you, I do not know where she lives, and I can not talk to her because she issued a restraining order against me in this country, which she refused to lift even when asked by the government
“I have spoken to her family to reach out to her from Nigeria but they are not ready to.
“We have 2 little girls and I am concerned about them.”
He said he has done his best to resolve their differences but his estranged wife wants none of it. The man said she now lives with another guy.
“I have done my best to get her back but she got the police to put a no-contact order on me from the very first day. Her family won’t get involved.”
Adeolatalks also released voice notes the man sent her narrating what happened.

Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG previously reported that a woman had dumped her husband who sponsored her to the United States.
The man chatted up his wife two months after she left the country and she kept ignoring him. It was at the point that he threatened to lay a curse on her that she responded.
The lady showed little regard for him and ignored that they already have a son together. She said she wanted someone up to her class and hence would leave her husband.
