Court orders wife to return carpet, mattress to husband



Earlier today, a Sharia Court in Kaduna ordered a housewife identified as Hauwa’u Zailani, to return the carpet and mattress she received as part of her dowry from her former, husband Akilu Yakubu.


The judge presiding the case, Malam Muhammad Shehu-Adamu, reportedly gave the order after Zailani told the court that she was no longer interested in the union because her estrange husband was no longer taking care of her. 

Muhammad said, “The union between Hauwa’u Zailani and Akilu Yakubu is hereby dissolved based on Khul’i. She will return his dowry to him, “he ruled. Zailani, who resides in Gandarko village, Kaduna State, earlier told the court that her estrange husband, Yakubu abandoned her when she was ill and pregnant. 

She reportedly told the court that she spent eight months in her parent’s house with no news from her husband until she had a miscarriage. on this note, she asked the court to dissolve the marriage.

According to the Vanguard, Yakubu, who resides in Kabobo village, Kaduna, denied the claims, saying that his wife told him she was going home to get spiritual help.


He, however, pleaded with the  court to give him time to reconcile with the wife, saying he still loved her.

On a different light, the witnesses presented by Zailani confirmed that she was abandoned by her husband when she was ill.
