Civil servant drags Kannywood actress to court for refusing to marry him

A civil servant, Bala Musa, has sued Kannywood actress, Hadiza Gabon, over her failure to marry him after she promised to tie the knot with him.

Musa told a Shariah Court in Kaduna that the actress has been in a relationship with him and has been spending money on her for the purpose of getting married.

The complainant told the court that he had been in a relationship with the Kannywood actress and that she had promised to marry him.

“So far I have spent N396,000 on her. Anytime she asks for money, I give her without hesitation with the hope that we will marry. She also failed to show up in Gusau, Zamfara where I live after I made all arrangements to host her,” he told the court.

The case was first heard on May 23 but the defendant was not in court after being served.

Although the defendant was not in court, her counsel, Mubarak Kabir, said his client was not sure of the authenticity of the summon.

“My client’s position as a celebrity attracts different kinds of people with different intentions. She is very vigilant regarding her safety and security,” Kabir said.

Kabir prayed the court to give him more time to produce his client in court.

The presiding judge, Justice Rilwanu Kyaudai, therefore, adjourned the matter until June 13.
