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.

 Ballerina Michaela DePrince, who danced for Beyoncé, dies at age 29



Sierra Leonean ballerina Michaela Mabinty DePrince, who starred in TV show "Dancing with the Stars" and Beyonce's "Lemonade" music video album, died on Friday at the age of 29, her family said.


DePrince's family confirmed the news of her passing on social media, writing in a Friday post they were making the announcement with "profound sadness." DePrince's death was "sudden," but other details surrounding the circumstances of her death were not immediately available, according to the post.


"The family thanks you for their privacy as they navigate this very difficult time. Services will be private," according to the post.

Decades before DePrince became a world-renowned ballerina, she was living at an orphanage in Sierra Leone, hoping to be adopted, and she was.


Born in Kenema, Sierra Leone, in 1995, DePrince was sent to an orphanage at the age of three after both of her parents died during the civil war.

She has spoken in the past about how she was seen as a "devil's child" in the orphanage because she suffered from vitiligo, a condition in which patches of skin lose pigmentation.

But she was adopted aged four by an American couple and moved to New Jersey. Her adoptive mother quickly noticed her obsession with ballet and enrolled her in classes.

She rose to fame after graduating from high school and made history as the youngest principal dancer at the Dance Theatre of Harlem.


She was raised by the DePrince family in New Jersey, where she began to take dance classes. DePrince competed and by age 14, won a prestigious scholarship to attend the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School in New York City, a pre-professional ballet training program at the American Ballet Theatre, Glamour reported.

DePrince starred in "First Position," a 2011 documentary following six young dancers. She also released two books about her life "Taking Flight: From War Orphan to Star Ballerina" and "Ballerina Dreams."


Several members of the ballet community mourned DePrince, including American ballerina Misty Copeland who posted on social media a video of DePrince dancing along with an excerpt about DePrince from Copeland’s book called “Black Ballerinas.”

“Despite being told the 'world wasn’t ready for Black ballerinas' or that 'Black ballerinas weren’t worth investing in,' she remained determined, focused, and began making big strides,” Copeland wrote.
