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.

COMEDIAN RICKY GERVAIS RECEIVED HIS WALK OF FAME ON FRIDAY. (PHOTO).

 


Ricky Gervais proved he hasn't mellowed with age during his Hollywood Walk of Fame acceptance speech on Friday, delivering the kind of controversial moment that has defined his career.

"We've had a few weird years of cancel culture, people telling you what you can and can't laugh at or talk about," Gervais declared, "but we pushed back, and we won. Until the next time."

But it was his follow-up comment that really raised eyebrows. 


Gervais thanked fellow Walk of Fame honorees including "Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby, Fatty Arbuckle" - three men who have all faced serious sexual assault allegations, though outcomes varied significantly in each case.

This isn't new territory for Gervais, who famously skewered Hollywood's elite during his Golden Globes hosting stints, particularly his 2020 performance that targeted everyone from Jeffrey Epstein connections to "woke" celebrity culture.


The comedian's philosophy remains unchanged: "You need to know that if you're doing anything of any worth, as many people hate you as love you." His supporters see him as a fearless truth-teller, while critics view his approach as unnecessarily provocative.
