A Sharia Court in Kaduna State on Monday, granted the request of one Maryam Dahiru, who asked that her marriage to one Salihu Yakubu be terminated.

Maryam on October 12, through her counsel Murtala Gyallesu, filed a suit against Yakubu, asking the court to end her one-month-old marriage through Khul’i.

She told the court that she was no longer interested in the marriage and was ready to pay all the prices to get them separated.

On his part, Yakubu, through his counsel, M. M. Dahiru, told the court that he was still in love with his wife and had no intention of divorcing her.

He, however, prayed the court to order Maryam to return the marriage suitcases filled with clothes he gave her as a gift.

Delivering judgement the judge, Malam Rilwanu Kyaudai, ordered Maryam to return N100,000 dowry and the suitcases of clothes she received from her ex-husband.

He confirmed the divorce between the couple through Khul’i (divorce by mutual Agreement).

The judge ruled that “She will only return the clothes she hasn’t used.

“The complainant has the permission of the court to move her belongings from her former husband’s house”.

In another development, a Chief Imam identified as Goni Abbah in Borno State was poisoned to death by his second wife of one year.

The victim was said to have returned home from a prayer session at the mosque at Anguwan Doki, where he usually led other Muslim faithful in prayer, when the suspect, Fatima Abubakar, reportedly carried out the heinous act.
