AISHA MOHAMMED

A 35-year old housewife, Mrs. Talatu Suleiman, has dragged her husband, Nasiru, before the Court seeking for dissolution of their marriage because her husband denied her sex for five years and provided only N300 daily for the feeding of their six children.

P.M.EXPRESS reports that the embittered Taratu filed the suit on Monday seeking for divorce before Sharia Court ll, sitting in Magajin Gari, Kaduna State, lamenting she had been sexually starved for five years.
Mrs. Talatu, who resides in Makera, Kaduna, told the Court that her husband Nasiru Sulaiman, apart from denying her sex for those years, did not give her the money and refused to train the children in school.

“We have six children but he has refused to enroll them in school. I enrolled them but he pulled them out, saying that I want to change their belief from his school of thoughts. For nine months now, they have not been to school.”
“The house we live in is dilapidated; it is infested by rats. He gives me only N300 to feed the children. Sometimes, I go out to do menial jobs to assist the family but he accuses me of prostitution. I can’t continue living with him. I want a divorce” she said.

The defendant, Suleiman, denied the allegations made by his wife.
”When I left, my wife was pregnant but when I came back, she told me that he had an abortion because she does not want to bear any child” he said.
Suleiman admitted that he gives his wife N300 daily and it was because he had all the foodstuffs in the house.
Ruling, the Judge, Murtala Nasir, ordered both parties to settle their problems amicable. He adjourned the case till 23rd September, 2019, for report on settlement or continuation of hearing.
