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.

 Calm Returns to Okon-Aku Community in Abia State After Violent Clash Claims One Life


Normalcy has been restored to Okon-Aku community in Ohafia Local Government Area of Abia State following a violent incident on January 2 that resulted in one death and injuries to four others. Swift intervention by security agencies and clarifications from state authorities have helped ease tensions and counter misinformation surrounding the event.


The Abia State Police Command confirmed a rapid response to reports of unrest in the community. Under the directive of Commissioner of Police Danladi Isa, officers from the Ohafia Divisional Headquarters, supported by two tactical teams, were deployed to contain the situation, restore order, and prevent further escalation.


Police sources reported that the injured victims were promptly rushed to hospital and are responding to treatment. Security forces have maintained a strong presence in the area, with ongoing patrols to ensure lasting peace.


In a statement by Police Public Relations Officer DSP Maureen Chioma Chinaka, the command revealed that several suspects connected to the incident have been arrested and are under investigation. They will be prosecuted upon completion of inquiries. Residents were urged to stay calm, avoid vigilante actions, and report suspicious activities via official emergency lines.


As stability returned, the Office of the Deputy Governor addressed social media speculation linking Deputy Governor Engr. Ikechukwu Emetu to the crisis. In a statement signed by Chief Press Secretary Sir Cyril Chukwudi Eke Mba, the office clarified that the Deputy Governor has no involvement in the matter and is not from Okon village.


The statement emphasized that village leadership selection in Ohafia follows customary processes managed by local communities and traditional institutions, beyond the Deputy Governor's jurisdiction. It noted that the underlying leadership dispute in Okon-Aku predates the current administration and is being handled by the Ohafia Council of Monarchs.


The Deputy Governor strongly condemned the violence, including property destruction and threats to lives, while confirming that immediate measures were taken to evacuate the injured to the Federal Medical Centre in Umuahia for advanced care.


Both the police and state government reiterated appeals for restraint, dialogue, and adherence to due process, calling on all parties to support ongoing investigations and traditional mediation.


The incident underscores the importance of prompt security action, transparent communication, and coordinated institutional efforts in resolving local disputes before they escalate into broader threats to public safety.


Residents of Abia State have been encouraged to resume normal activities while cooperating with authorities to sustain peace.
