A mother of four, Zainab Buhari, has dragged her husband, Babangida Ibrahim before a Sharia Court sitting at Rigasa, Kaduna, Kaduna State, for allegedly subjecting her to dehumanising treatment.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Zainab told the court that her husband always beat her and left her and their children with no food.
“He grabs my neck to suffocate me, squeezes my breast hard and demands for sex,” she said.
“I take care of our children’s school fees, feeding, clothing and other needs. Whenever I run to my parents, they beg me to return to my matrimonial home.” she added
The defendant denied all the allegations brought against him.
The judge, Malam Salisu Abubakar Tureta, ordered Zainab to present her witnesses in court.
He thus adjourned the case for further hearing.
