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.

 South Sudan president sacks finance minister after only two months in post


South Sudan's President Salva Kiir has fired the country's finance minister just over two months after appointing him, extending a relentless churn in key cabinet posts in the world's newest country, Reuters reported.


The South Sudan Broadcasting Corporation announced late on Monday that Kiir had relieved Athian Diing Athian of his position as finance minister, appointing Barnaba Bak Chol in his place.


Analysts say Kiir regularly reshuffles the ranks of South Sudan's military and government to maintain control as he contends with armed conflict and speculation within the country about his eventual succession.


Kiir has led a transitional government in the impoverished and fractured nation since independence from Sudan in 2011.


Scheduled elections have twice been postponed and First Vice President Riek Machar, Kiir's main rival during a 2013-2018 civil war, was charged earlier this year with treason.


No reason was given for the eighth change of finance minister since 2020. Barnaba Bak Chol previously held the position for about half a year until he was fired in March 2024.
