A hearing-impaired woman, Hauwa’u Bello, has filed for divorce from her husband, Usman Shuaibu, at a Shari’a court in Magajin Gari, Kaduna state.
The woman, who communicated through a sign language interpreter, told the court that her husband was “starving her” and only gives her N50 for food.
“We got married in 2016, and my parents provided food for us. The problem started when the food finished.
”He has failed in his responsibilities to provide for the house. He is a tailor.
“When I delivered my baby, he couldn’t pay the hospital bill; it was his mother who provided the money,” she said.
She stated that their parents had intervened and advised her husband to be more responsible, but he did not change.
She is now requesting the court to dissolve the marriage.
Shuaibu, however, denied all of his wife’s claims.
The judge, Malam Kabir Muhammad, has ordered the couple to appear in court with their parents or guardians on August 25.
