Kaduna businessman drags ex fiancee’s father to court, demands dowry refund A businessman, Nasiru Dayyabu, on Wednesday, dragged the father of his ex-fiance, Mallam Sani Direba, to Shari’a Court II sitting at Magajin Gari, Kaduna over N260,000 dowry. The complainant had joined Direba in the suit against two brothers demanding a refund of N250, 000 dowry and N10,000 introduction money he paid to marry his daughter. Represented by his counsel, Mr Sani Sunusi, the complainant told the court that he sent his people from Karaye, Kano State to Kaduna in 2025, to seek for the defendant’s daughter’s hand in marriage. “We paid the dowry and the introduction money (kudin gausuwa) and were waiting for them to set a date for the wedding,” he said. “Unfortunately, the lady’s father called to inform us that they have cancelled the marriage.” The counsel said the complainant had asked for the refund of his money since Sept. 2025 but all the efforts he made proved abortive.

Nigerian Man K!lls 2-Year-Old Daughter, Blames Action On Local Alcoholic Beverage, 'Burukutu'

The Nigerian police have arrested one Ayuba Danbaki, 35, for allegedly killing his two-year-old daughter after an altercation with her mother in Adamawa State.

Danbaki, who reportedly strangled the child identified as Tamar Ayuba Danbaki with a rope, has confessed to the crime. 

He said he buried his deceased daughter in a shallow grave.

The incident happened at Rigi village, Ga'anda District in the Gombi Local Government Area of the state after the murderous father consumed a local alcoholic beverage known as 'burukutu'. 

The estranged wife of Danbaki and mother of the deceased, Shiyona Ali was said to have left the girl with her father who was at a local pub in the community around 8:00 pm, after she was reportedly fed up with the child's upkeep.

Danbaki reportedly became upset with the action of his former wife and he took the baby into the bush, strangled her with a rope and subsequently buried her in a shallow grave.

Ayuba said that he did not know the consequences of his action, adding that most of the people in their community were ignorant of the consequences of such a crime.

The 30-year-old mother of the deceased reported the matter to the state police command on August 8, 2023, which led to the arrest of the suspect. He thereafter led the police to where he buried his daughter.

While being interrogated by the spokesperson for the state police command, SP Suleiman Nguroje, on Wednesday, the suspect confessed, saying: "I killed my daughter because I became angry as to the reason why her mother will dump her with me at a local joint. 

"I tied a rope around her neck, dug a grave and buried her. I'm married and blessed with six children, including the deceased. I became angry with her mother's action. It was a mistake." 

"I drink local beer known as 'burukutu'. I want to use this opportunity to advise people not to drink beer because it is not good. It makes someone useless," he added.

Nguroje said the police commissioner, Babatola Afolabi, had ordered that the matter should be transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the command for discreet investigation.
