A businessman, Hassan Abubakar, has denied divorcing his wife, Bashirat Abdulrazak, in a Sharia court sitting at Magajin Gari, Kaduna, Kaduna State.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Hassan told the court that he loved his wife and had no intention of divorcing her.
“We have a child together. I got home from my business trip one day and discovered that she had moved all her belongings out of the house.
“We didn’t have any quarrel or misunderstanding”, he said.
Earlier, the complainant told the court that her husband had made one pronouncement of divorce to her.
She prayed the court to confirm the divorce.
“I also want him to take full responsibility of his child and pay the amount he can afford for the monthly feeding allowance”, she said.
The judge, Malam Rilwanu Kyaudai, asked the complainant to produce witnesses to confirm her allegations.
He thus adjourned the case.
