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.

 Actor Michael Jai White warns America is 'not making men anymore'


Actor and martial artist Michael Jai White told Joe Rogan on his podcast that he believes American boys are becoming “too soft” and that masculinity has been diminished in recent decades. 


He contrasted the U.S. with countries like Australia and New Zealand, where he said “rites of passage” still exist for young men. White argued that foreign actors are often cast to play American alpha males because American masculinity has been “demonized,” a point Rogan agreed with.


White recalled seeing the shift firsthand when he worked as a schoolteacher, pointing to participation trophies and the removal of competition as examples of how children were shielded from failure. He said these left kids unable to cope with losing, which he linked to broader social problems. 


Rogan agreed, calling losing “the best medicine.” White emphasized that competition and struggle are essential for growth, and that protecting self-esteem at all costs undermines resilience.


Reflecting on his own martial arts journey, White explained how his natural athleticism sometimes held him back because it allowed him to avoid pushing past his limits. He described how track and field taught him efficiency of motion, which he applied to fighting, but admitted that true martial artists are those who push beyond fatigue and discomfort. 


White said he now focuses on training to his own ability rather than comparing himself to others, stressing that relying on natural gifts can become a crutch that limits personal growth.
