Karima Nuhu, a 45-year-old woman from Kaduna, has filed a lawsuit against her husband, Musa Falalu, for allegedly failing to fulfill his promise of taking her to Saudi Arabia.

During the court hearing, Karima Nuhu claimed that she had been married to Musa Falalu for four years, but he had only provided her with food for two months.
“He told me that he lost his job as a driver but had secured another one in Saudi Arabia, urging me to be patient while promising to take me along. So far, I have been the one feeding myself. I even borrowed money including my savings for him so that he would be able to pay for the trip, but after getting what he wanted, he divorced me,” she said.
She stated that her husband had promised to take her to Saudi Arabia but had failed to fulfill that promise.
When asked if she had any witnesses to present in court, Karima Nuhu replied that she had none except God, who would judge them on the last day.
Musa Falalu, the defendant, denied the allegations and revealed that he had already divorced the complainant.
The presiding judge, Malam Anass Khalifa, confirmed the divorce between the couple.
He stated that the court would only listen to the complainant’s claims if she had witnesses to support her case.
