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.

 Ohio high school band performs at Disney after thieves steal instruments hours before show

An Ohio high school marching band overcame a major setback to perform at Walt Disney World after thieves stole thousands of dollars' worth of instruments just hours before their show.

Ashland High School students traveled to Orlando’s Magic Kingdom after years of fundraising and preparation. But on the morning of March 29, they discovered their locked trailer had been broken into overnight at their hotel on International Drive, with roughly 20% of their instruments missing. The stolen instruments included clarinets, trumpets, trombones, and saxophones, many of which held deep personal value to students.

“About 20% of the kids in that parade were using instruments they’d never touched,” said band director Marty Kral. “And they still nailed it.”

With the clock ticking, band leaders contacted Music & Arts, a national retailer, which quickly provided replacement instruments from two Orlando locations. When the band was still one saxophone short, staff reached out via Facebook to another Ohio school band performing at Disney, and a parent from Anna High School loaned the final instrument just before midnight.

Despite the challenges, every Ashland student performed on Monday, marching down Main Street at Walt Disney World and playing “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” from Toy Story. The crowd cheered as students, some on unfamiliar instruments, delivered a flawless performance.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the theft.
