An Upper Area Court in Kubwa, Abuja, has dissolved a 10-year marriage between Rukaya Shuaibu and her husband, Shehu Zubair, citing a lack of love as the reason.
Judge Mohammed Wakili granted the dissolution in accordance with Islamic Law after Shuaibu requested a divorce on the grounds that the marriage was devoid of love.
Wakili instructed Shuaibu to observe a three-month “Iddah” period before entering into another marriage.
Earlier, Shuaibu informed the court that she married Zubair under Islamic Law and had not yet had any children. She stated that the marriage had irretrievably broken down and asked the court to grant her divorce due to the absence of love.
She also mentioned that the respondent owes her N100,000, which she is seeking to have repaid.
