Kaduna man drags mother-in-law to court over wife’s refusal to return home

A businessman identified as Isma’il Ibrahim has dragged his mother-in-law, Zainab Muhammad, to a Shari’a Court at Rigasa Kaduna, for allegedly refusing to allow his wife to return to their matrimonial home.

The complainant who is a resident at Police Station road, Rigasa, told the court that the defendant had stopped his wife from returning home due to his financial situation.

“He came after three months, requesting for his wife to return to him and I told him she has to stay with me for six months to enable her fully recover.

My daughter fell sick after the operation and I was the one that paid for all her medication and feeding throughout the period,’’ she said

She told the court that she was ready to hand over her daughter to the husband if he paid all she had spent on medication and feeding for nine months.
