*SHOCKING DETAILS FROM THE PETITION BELOW

*ACTRESS BISI IBIDAPO OBE CITED AS ONE OF THE REASONS IN PETITION...Lol

Things have fallen apart in the home of controversial Kogi state ex law maker Dino Melaye ,his 10year old marriage has crashed like a pack of cards and Tokunbo his wife and mother of his three kids has taken to her heels filing for divorce in the process.

According to STELLADIMOKOKORKUS.COM sources ''the drama between Dino and his wife will take a full week to narrate.they had a lot of problems and each time they had an argument be sure that his wife would end up in hospital being treated for injuries of all kinds.she was a punching bag.

Aside from allegedly sleeping with his house girl,which was one of the major problems,there are also confirmed whispers that sometimes when Tokunbo went to work he removed her pix from the house walls and brought in different women in their matrimonial bed telling them his wife had died,and even getting the domestic staff to say their madam was resting with the Lord''

 The insiders continue ''for the past 9yrs Dino has been beating his wife to the point that there are police records stating some reported instances,she was five months pregnant with her second son widen the beatings began,and it got worse.

she was rushed to Zanlin hospital in 2005 at exactly 10pm, and was treated for injuries on head he hit her with an iron rod.

In October 2010,she was rushed to Wuse general hospital by the police themselves after she ran in her bloodied nightgown with deep cuts on her arms,the report says Dino used a plank to flog her aiming for the head but she used her arms to protect herself and ended up with deep deep cuts that needed emergency room attention.

On September 25,2013 Tokunbo and Dino had an argument and he pulled a silver pistol to her head and was seconds away from pulling the rigger when his ringing phone distracted him,she took off leaving behind her shoes.she has filed for divorce and wants custody of the kids but she has not been allowed to see them or have any contact with them.

Insiders say on that september 25th morning the altercation which led to Dino pulling out his gun had to do with a dressing gown in the wardrobe belonging to Dino,his wife attempted to put it on and the law maker refused telling her that all the dressing gowns and perfumes he had were gifts from his girlfriends and he did not buy them with money.the wife allegedly retorted by saying she could as well accept gift from male friends and Dino exploded accusing his wife of referring to her ex boyfriend and asking her to leave his house,he pointed a gun to her head and the drama ended with the wife running to the police station to report to the commissioner of police and escorted back to the house with five policemen who came to search for the gun with a warrant of arrest.Dino was invited to the police headquarters and the same warrant of arrest later surface online claiming he had been arrested because of the Stella Oduah corruption case he was previously arrested for.

''Stella,can you believe that Dino sacked three of his domestic staff because they were updating Madam on the whereabouts and well being of her three children but were later quoted as being nine domestic staff sacked for being security risks?Dino has over 10 cars but if he has small issues with his wife,he seizes all the car keys and forces her to either trek or take public transport.if she returns home anyway after 7pm,she must sleep outside the gate till he returns home by 1am his usual time and when he gets back,just know that there is fire on the mountain''.

Different versions on why the marriage crashed has also emerged from the camp of Dino.

The first version is that ''he caught her twice with her ex,he warned her the first time but divorced her when he caught her again''

The second whispers is that ''he caught her whispering on the phone with her ex and he asked her why she was talking to him and she shouted at him that she would not only speak with him but would f#*k him as well''

The third version is that ''Tokunbo allegedly collected money from Stella oduah and planted cocaine in the house and then went to report to police to search the house.Some say it was cocaine she planted,others say it was guns''

Concerned friends of both couple are running helper skelter to ensure that they settle well and the kids returned to their mother who is presently living alone.

FIDA,an international body for female lawyers has also been brought into the matter to fight for the rights of the estranged Mrs Melaye who in her divorce petition is asking for full custody of the three children who have been seized from her.

On the other hand,the Lawyer representing Mr Melaye is asking for custody rights of the children as well.
