Tradermoni Tears Couples Apart In Adamawa As Husband takes Wife to Court

President Muhammadu Buhari’s generosity to petty traders and artisans who profit from his empowerment program may have been a stroke of luck.

However, the free loan system is breaking families apart, as one man in Yola, Adamawa State, has taken his lovely wife to court, requesting an account of the #20,000 she got.

Babagida Jibrilla, the husband, has taken his wife, Aisha Mohammed, to
Civil Area Court I in Yola, where he is requesting that the court order
his wife to pay him the amount of #20,000 she earned in January,
February, and March of this year.

He told the court that they had

been dividing the money with his wife when she began to profit from
Buhari’s gesture, stating that if she gets stipends, she gives him half
of it.

He said that his wife received #20,000 at the end of March
but declined to report it or give him his share, and he asked the court
to order her to give him the whole amount because the account was in
his name.

The complainant also named his father-in-law, Mohammed
Buba, as a second defendant in the lawsuit, alleging that his
father-in-law had been refusing to allow his wife to return to their
marital home for the past 16 months.

He told the court that his
wife had been with her parents for the past 16 months for no apparent
cause, and that all attempts to get her back to his house had failed
miserably, and he begged the court to order his father-in-law to allow
his wife to return to her matrimonial home.

The wife, on the
other hand, disputed the responsibility, claiming that the money does
not come under his name and that the stipends are provided to women to
help them expand their businesses, and that it is her portrait that is
on the account, not his.

Aisha told the court that the union was established about 5 years earlier, but that she was unable to bear children.

The
second claimant, for his part, vigorously denied declining to allow his
daughter to return to her matrimonial home, claiming that the charge
levied against him by the husband is false and that he is prepared to
prove it to the court.

The judge, presided over by Honourable
Musa A. Shanu, adjourned the case until April 8, 2021, after hearing all
of the parties involved.
