“I gave her N50,000 as dowry, not N30,000 and she made me lose the N35,000 monthly allowance I used to receive from my brothers as a result of ill health.
“Since we got married in 2018, My brothers stopped sending me the monthly allowance because I married her.
”Therefore, she has to pay me the money before getting the divorce from me,” he said.
Nasiru, through her lawyer, Mr Abubakar Abdullahi, said there was no prior agreement to pay the defendant any money.

The judge, Malam Rilwanu Kyaudai, adjourned the case to September 15 for Nasiru to produce her witnesses in the matter. (NAN)
