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.

 Israel confirms recovery of last hostage’s remains in Gaza 


 Israel has confirmed that the remains of the final hostage in Gaza, 24-year-old Border Police officer Ran Gvili, have been recovered, clearing the way for the next phase of the ceasefire that ended the Israel-Hamas war. Gvili, who was killed during Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel, had been the last missing person whose return was required before moving forward with the U.S.-brokered truce. His family had urged the government to complete his recovery before advancing to the second phase.

The military conducted a large-scale operation in a northern Gaza cemetery, drawing on intelligence to locate Gvili’s remains. Rabbis and dental experts assisted with identification. The operation follows months of tension, with Israel accusing Hamas of delaying the handover and Hamas asserting it had provided all information available. Since the ceasefire took effect on Oct. 10, 2023, Israel had already recovered the remains of 27 hostages and returned 20 living hostages, while releasing hundreds of Palestinian bodies in exchange. With Gvili’s recovery, Israel has indicated it will reopen the Rafah crossing with Egypt for Palestinians, a critical lifeline that has been mostly closed since May 2024.

The first phase of the ceasefire, which included the return of all hostages, had been closely monitored by mediators, including Washington. The next phase calls for an international stabilization force, the formation of a technocratic Palestinian government, and the disarmament of Hamas. The recovery operation occurred amid continued Israeli military activity in Gaza, which has resulted in additional Palestinian deaths, and the Israeli Supreme Court is considering a petition to allow independent foreign journalists access to the territory.
