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.

 Yoruba Nation Activist Sunday Igboho Returns to Nigeria After Years in Exile


Chief Sunday Adeyemo, widely known as Sunday Igboho, the prominent Yoruba Nation activist, has returned to Nigeria following his removal from the Federal Government's wanted list under President Bola Tinubu's administration.


Igboho arrived in Ibadan on Monday, January 26, 2026, marking his first major public appearance since fleeing the country in 2021 amid a security raid on his residence. Upon arrival, he headed directly to the palace of the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja, in what his camp described as a significant homecoming.


Confirming the development, Igboho's spokesperson, Olayomi Koiki, stated that the activist was en route to the Olubadan's palace. “As I’m speaking to you, Chief Sunday Adeyemo is on his way to Olubadan Palace. He should be there any moment from now,” Koiki said.


Koiki earlier characterized the return as a “historic” moment and one of hope for Ibadanland and Yorubaland at large. “This is a moment of hope for Ibadan land and the entire Yorubaland. Chief Adeyemo is no longer being sought by government authorities and is free to return home,” he added.


The activist's clearance to return reportedly followed interventions by prominent Southwest traditional rulers, including the Olubadan, the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, and others, who appealed to President Tinubu on his behalf. Reports indicate that these royal interventions facilitated his removal from the watchlist and paved the way for his reintegration.


Igboho had been living in self-exile in the Benin Republic after escaping a 2021 Department of State Services (DSS) operation at his Ibadan home, which led to his declaration as wanted on charges related to treasonable felony and stockpiling of arms. He was later arrested in Cotonou in July 2021 while attempting to travel abroad but was released after legal proceedings.


His return comes amid a period of relative calm in separatist agitations in the Southwest, with supporters viewing it as a positive step toward reconciliation and national unity under the current administration.
