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.

STATUS QUO VERSUS STATUS QUO ANTE BELLUM: AN EXPLAINER TO THE WAILING ADC- BAYO ONANUGA. (PHOTO). #PRESS RELEASE


 Status quo versus status quo ante bellum: An explainer to the wailing ADC


I asked AI and Google to explain the meanings of the Latin terms. Here is the explanation that I got: 


Status quo ante bellum means "the state existing before the war". It is used in treaties and diplomacy to describe a peace settlement in which neither side gains or loses territory, power, or economic rights, effectively restoring the political and geographical conditions that existed before the conflict began.


Status quo: The current state of affairs.


Status quo ante or status quo ante bellum: The state of affairs prior to a specific event.


For example, Russia and the United States are now trying to maintain the status quo about their nuclear arsenals. To maintain the status quo is to keep things as they are. 


The related phrase status quo ante, literally 'the status before', refers to the state of affairs that existed previously.


In the case between Nafiu Gombe versus ADC, David Mark, and Rauf Aregbesola, 'status quo ante bellum' means reverting to the ADC as it existed before Ralph Nwoye sold the party to Abubakar Atiku to serve as an SPV for the 2027 election. According to reports, Gombe claims he is still the vice chairman of the ADC, that he never resigned, and that he ought to have become the automatic chairman following the resignation of the party's longest-serving chairman, Nwoye. The ADC should stop blaming President Tinubu, INEC for its self inflicted woes.
