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.

VETERANS FILE LAWSUIT TO HALT CONSTRUCTION OF ‘ARC DE TRUMP’.(PHOTO).


 Veterans file lawsuit to halt construction of ‘Arc de Trump’

   A group of Vietnam War veterans and an architectural historian filed a lawsuit Thursday seeking to stop President Donald Trump’s plan to build a 250-foot “Independence Arch” at the western edge of the National Mall. The suit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, asks a judge to block construction at Memorial Circle—between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery—until the project receives explicit congressional approval. The plaintiffs argue the arch would interfere with the historically significant line of sight between the two memorials, which was intentionally designed to symbolize national unity after the Civil War.

The veterans, Michael Lemmon, Shaun Byrnes, and Jon Gunderson, along with retired senior architectural historian Calder Roth, contend that the arch, planned to be completed for the nation’s 250th anniversary on July 4, would obstruct views of Arlington House from the Lincoln Memorial and vice versa. They claim the project violates the Commemorative Works Act of 1986, which requires congressional authorization for monuments on federal land, and note that Trump has indicated he will fund the construction through private donations managed by Freedom 250. The lawsuit also raises safety concerns about potential airspace hazards near Ronald Reagan National Airport. Byrnes described the proposed arch as a “massive expression of domination” that could overshadow the values of those buried at Arlington National Cemetery, while the group’s attorney emphasized the project is unlawful without congressional approval.
