Samira Makama and Muhammed Musa’s marriage of eight years was dissolved on Thursday by a Jos Central Area Court in Kasuwan Nama 1 due to Muhammed Musa’s incapacity to provide for his family.
In approving Makama’s plea, a panel of judges comprised of Malam Sadiq Adam and Mr. Hyacinth Dolnanan stated that all efforts to bring the parties together had failed.
The petitioner and respondent were told to separate by the judges.
However, according to NAN, the court ordered that the respondent pay his children’s school tuition and maintain them on a monthly basis.
Earlier, the wife pleaded with the court to dissolve their marriage, saying that her husband, who she has been married to for the last 8 years, had failed to cater for her and their two children.
She told the court that her husband had initially divorced her twice according to Islamic rites and that he had also cut off conjugal relationship with her.
She said that she was at the court to seek the dissolution of her marriage to the respondent.
