According to reports, the proceedings in an Ikeja High Court took an
unusual dimension on Monday when an excerpt of a sex video tape between a
married father of three and his ex-lover was played in the courtroom.
The
News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the father of three, Peter
Omokaro, is an ex-banker, while his ex-lover, Titilayo Nosa-Igiebor, is a
businesswoman.
Omokaro who is in his early 60s had sued
Nosa-Igiebor, 33, over her non-payment of an alleged N15 million loan he
gave her during their relationship.
The tape was played when Mr Victor Okpara, counsel to Nosa-Igiebor led her in evidence.
The
video which played for more than an hour showed Omokaro and
Nosa-Igiebor lying in bed in a hotel room, agreeing to the terms of the
`loan’ before engaging in sexual intercourse.
Omokaro could be heard in the video, before signing the agreement, saying: “I hope I am not signing my death warrant.”
He was also heard telling Nosa-Igiebor that he had no intention of getting the loan back.
The defendant’s counsel tendered a copy of the loan agreement in evidence.
The
counsel told the court that Clause Five of the agreement exempted
Nosa-Igiebor from repaying the alleged loan because of their sexual
relationship.
NAN reports that Clause Five of the agreement,
which pertains to waiver of rights, states: “Peter forever waives all
rights to loan payback, forfeiting totally loan given if Titilayo agrees
to and has sexual intercourse with Peter.”
Earlier in her
evidence, the defendant told the court that Omokaro never gave her the
N15 million although he promised to give her without collecting it back.
The businesswoman testified that Omokaro became vindictive after their relationship turned sour.
She told the court that the ex-banker intended to punish her for the soured relationship by taking her to court.
