Thus, a total of four hundred (400) copiesof the questionnaire were distributed while three hundred and eighty were (380) completed and retrieved. The demographic data was organized using frequency count and percentages while mean and standard deviation was used to answer the research questions.

The findings revealed that; insurgency has significant influence on spousal relationshipwith2.33 mean and 1.10 standard deviation while the test of hypotheses revealed that the chi squarecalculated is greater than the table value ( 2 Computed = 143.03, 2 Critical = 40.12 at 0.5 level of significance).
