Husband hacks into wife’s phone, catches her cheating, wants divorce

A Nigerian customary court based in Ojo, a suburb of Lagos will decide 22 May whether to grant a divorce request by a couple, over accusations of adultery.

Forty-three year-old man, Mr Peter Ekundayo asked the Grade ‘A’ Customary Court, Ojo to dissolve his marriage after confirming his wife’s adulterous act by hacking into her phone.

“When I became suspicious of Funmi, my wife, I decided to activate call monitoring on my wife’s phone through the help of a computer expert. Due to the call monitoring I activated, whenever my wife got an incoming call, mine would vibrate and then I just click to listen to her conversations on my phone. What I discovered almost made me take my life,” Ekundayo said.

The petitioner, who resides at Ajoke Bodunde Street, Ojo-Igbede, Lagos, has been married to Funmi for two years.
Ekundayo said his wife’s attitude changed since she got a job as sales representative in a fast food outfit located at Iyana-Isashi area of Lagos.

“My wife’s attitude has become intolerable for me; she is always bent on denying me my right of sexual intercourse with her. As soon as my wife got that job, I noticed that I no longer had any influence on her. Even sexual matters in our marriage gradually became a thing of the past,” he said

The petitioner said that he became suspicious of her activities especially as she usually crept out of bed at night to receive calls, which initially she never did.

Ekundayo said that he was shocked on one occasion when he heard his wife’s telephone conversation with their neighbour whom she was allegedly sleeping with.

“During the conversation on phone, Funmi and that my neighbour both agreed to meet at a hotel around Afromedia, near Iyana-Isashi, after she closed from work. I deliberately did go out of the house that evening so as to monitor when Funmi will return from work. She returned from work that day at about 10 p.m and claimed that a truck had fallen on the road which caused much traffic. 

I almost took my life when I realised the shameful acts of my wife in the short time we have been married,” Ekundayo said.

He said that he wanted a divorce because he was still young and did not want to die from any illness associated Funmi’s alleged sexual immorality.

Funmi declined to make any comment in response to the allegation levelled against her by the petitioner.

Staying a virgin harder than training for Olympics, says US track star Lolo Jones

US hurdler Lolo Jones says staying a virgin has been harder than training to become an Olympian.
Speaking on HBO's Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel, the 29-year-old glamour girl - who has posed nude for the ESPN Body Issue - said refusing to have sex before marriage had also made it difficult for her to keep a steady boyfriend.

"This journey has been hard," said Jones. "It's the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, harder than training for the Olympics. Harder than studying for college has been staying a virgin before marriage."

She said she made the lifestyle decision because sex was "a gift I want to give my husband".

"I've been tempted," Jones added. "I've had guys tell me, 'You know, if you have sex, it will help you run faster.'"

Jones led the 100m hurdles final at the Beijing Olympics, but tripped on the second-last hurdle and finished seventh. She will bid for a spot at the London Games during the US Olympic Team Trials trials in Eugene, Ore., in June.

Facebook Could Kill The Web!

“Facebook is not only on course to go bust, but will take the rest of the ad-supported Web with it.” That’s the bold statement Michael Wolff makes in the MIT Technology Review today, and he insists he’s not exaggerating.

In the end, Facebook is just another website selling ads, he explains, and online ad rates are constantly falling. “I don’t know anyone in the ad-Web business who isn’t engaged in a relentless, demoralizing, no-exit operation to realign costs with falling per-user revenues.”

Yeah, yeah, Facebook is supposed to be different. It has “in some yet-to-be-defined way, redefined something. Relationships? Media? … Something big, anyway.” But so far it hasn’t found the Google-esque big idea that will put it at the heart of global e-commerce. It’s just selling ads, and to meet expectations, it “has to sell at near hyperspeed.” Given its nearly infinite inventory, this desperate gambit will glut “an already glutted market,” driving down costs for the entire ad-driven web. “The crash will come. And Facebook … will fall with everybody else.”
