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.

A NIGERIAN ASPIRING FASHION DESIGNER WAS FATALLY SHOT IN THE HEAD AT A BROOKLYN NIGHTCLUB AFTER A TUSSLE WITH A DRUNK MAN WHO REPORTEDLY GROPED HIS GIRLFRIEND.(PHOTO).


 A Nigerian aspiring fashion designer was fatally shot in the head at a Brooklyn nightclub after a tussle with a drunk man who reportedly groped his girlfriend.

 

Sheriff Shittu, 30, was k!lled when a gunman opened fire inside Quilox Restaurant and Lounge in East Flatbush on Church Ave. near 95th St. at about 4:25 a.m. Saturday, cops said.

 

According to NYDailyNews, Shittu was accompanied to the club by his younger brother, Fawaz Shittu, to celebrate a friend’s birthday a day before their mother was due to arrive for a visit from  Nigeria.

 

“I was screaming his name,” Fawaz said, recalling the aftermath of the shooting that k!lled his brother. “I was trying to wake him up.”

 

Sheriff got into a tussle with his k!ller after the stranger started drunkenly groping women, including the victim’s girlfriend, according to Fawaz.


The brothers left the club just 45 minutes after arriving, turned off by the disturbance, the brother said. But they returned minutes later after realizing  Sheriff had left his cell phone behind.

 

When they returned, the drunk was being escorted out, and the club’s owner tried to convince the brothers to stay, Fawaz said.

 

“The owner was saying, ‘Don’t mind that person — he’s a crazy guy’,” Fawaz recounted. “A few seconds later, I heard ‘pow,’ and I looked down, and I saw my brother.”

 

A bartender rushed to perform CPR on Sheriff, who lay motionless on the floor, Fawaz said.


The gunman ran off and has not been caught.

 

“He was able to escape,” Fawaz said of the killer. “I don’t know how that happened or how he got the gun in the club. Security didn’t do its job. They didn’t search. You’re supposed to check people and their bags.”

 

Medics rushed Sheriff to Brookdale University Hospital, where he later d!ed, police said. But the victim’s family has kept him on life support, hoping for a miracle.

 

“He has been pronounced dead, but we’re still hoping,” said Salem Shittu, 24, another of the victim’s brothers. “We’re holding out with our faith in God.”

 

“He was a very sweet person, very outgoing,” Salem added. “He was protective of his family, his friends and his loved ones.”
