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.

A 1-YEAR-OLD CHILD HAS PASSED AWAY AFTER BEING LEFT UNATTENDED IN A VEHICLE IN THE NEW MEXICO SUN.(PHOTO).


 A 1-year-old child has passed away after being left unattended in a vehicle in the New Mexico sun.


The Albuquerque police department received a call in reference to an unresponsive child. As First responders arrived on scene, they discovered the lifeless baby. EMS worked diligently to try to revive the child but unfortunately it was too late. The baby was pronounced deceased on the scene.


As detectives began to investigate what led to this absolute tragedy, they learned the child was being watched by a relative. That relative said he did not realize the child was not with him until he received a phone call to check on how things were going. That's when he realized he had made a fatal mistake.


According to the family member the child had been left unattended in the hot vehicle mid-morning to 5 p.m. in the evening.


This death marks the 3rd child to pass away due to being left in hot cars so far in 2025.


This should serve as a stark reminder to be mindful of children during these hot months and under no circumstances should they be left unattended in a vehicle. 


There are no reports on whether charges are forthcoming in connection to this tragedy.


Our thoughts are with the family of this baby who passed away under such terrible conditions.
