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.

 'I didn't expect that at Anfield' - Guardiola on 'sacked in morning' chants


"Sacked in the morning, you're getting sacked in the morning."


Liverpool were closing in on a win that would take them 11 points clear of title rivals Manchester City when the chants echoed around Anfield in the 89th minute. They were directed at Pep Guardiola, the mastermind behind six Premier League title triumphs since taking charge of City in 2016.


The City boss, standing in his technical area, responded with a smile and then took his hands out of his pockets to hold up one hand and one finger to indicate the number of titles City have won under him. "I didn't expect that at Anfield," Guardiola told Sky Sports afterwards when asked about the "sacked in the morning" chants. "I didn't expect it from the people from Liverpool but it's fine, it's part of the game, and I understand completely. "We've had incredible battles together. I have a respect for them."


City, who end the weekend fifth in the table below Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Brighton, have lost four consecutive top-flight games for the first time since August 2008. In addition, they are without a win in seven in all competitions - unheard of under Guardiola who has brought so much joy and success to City in the past eight years. "All the stadiums want to sack me, it started at Brighton [on 9 November]," added the 53-year-old, who signed a new two-year contract extension last month.


"Maybe they are right with the results we've been having." Guardiola has also delivered one Champions League, two FA Cups, four EFL Cups, the Fifa Club World Cup and Uefa Super Cup during his time at City.
