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.

 Former Presidential Adviser Warns of Crisis Over 2027 Nigerian Elections


Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, a former political adviser to Nigeria’s Vice President, has issued a stark warning about the potential consequences of a flawed 2027 general election, stating that anything less than a transparent electoral process could plunge the nation into unprecedented turmoil.


In a post on his verified X account on Monday, Dr. Baba-Ahmed urged Nigeria’s political leaders and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to address growing public concerns about the credibility of the upcoming elections. “Voices are being raised regarding integrity of the 2027 elections. Our leaders and INEC should listen. Anything short of the most transparent elections will produce neither winners nor losers. Rigging will risk plunging this country into its worst crises. No one wants that,” he wrote.


The warning comes as the House of Representatives considers a proposal to conduct all five elections—presidential, senatorial, House of Representatives, governorship, and House of Assembly—on a single day in 2027. If approved, the revised Electoral Act would grant INEC the authority to hold these polls simultaneously, a move aimed at streamlining the electoral process but raising concerns about logistical challenges and transparency.


As Nigeria approaches this critical electoral milestone, Dr. Baba-Ahmed’s remarks underscore the urgent need for reforms to ensure a free, fair, and credible election, with the nation’s stability hanging in the balance.
