A 40-year-old businessman, Auwal Musa, has prayed a Sharia court sitting in Magajin Gari, Kaduna, Kaduna State, to order his wife, Hauwa, to return to their matrimonial home.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Auwal in his petition said that his wife forced him to divorce her after a year of getting married to her.
“I signed the divorce papers under duress. I gave one pronouncement of divorce to her and later went to their house to cancel the divorce before she finished the Iddah, but she refused to come back.
“She had left with my plasma TV, gas cylinder, electric kettle, two caps and documents belonging to my father. I want them back,” he said.
In her defense, Hauwa said she had finished her waiting period (Iddah) before Musa asked her to come back.
“I only took his plasma TV and gas cylinder. I am keeping the items pending when he pays me the N31,500 he owes me.
“The electric kettle was given to me as a gift by him before he married me. I have no idea where his caps and father’s documents are,” she said.
The judge, Malam Murtala Nasir advised Musa to go home and search for the documents.
He thus adjourned the case.
