An Upper Area Court in Kubwa, Abuja on Wednesday dissolved a seven-year-old marriage between a woman, Ramatu Ahmed, and her husband, Yahaya Salihu, over lack of love.<\/p>\n

The judge, Mohammad Wakili dissolved the marriage according to Islamic Laws, following Ahmed\u2019s prayer for divorce on the said ground.<\/p>\n

Wakili also ordered Ahmed to observe \u201cIddah\u201d, which is an observation period of three months after the judgment before contracting another marriage.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Ramatu, a mother of two, told the court that she married Salihu in 2017 according to Islamic Personal Law.<\/p>\n

She said that she had been having problems for almost six years in the marriage and grew tired of the situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn spite of family interventions, the situation has not changed, I can never love Salihu. I want the court to grant my wish,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She added that when her father passed away, Salihu went to pay his condolences in her family home but refused to greet her mother.<\/p>\n

In his response, Salihu said that he does not love the plaintiff anymore and consented to the divorce, adding that her late father was also like a father to him.<\/p>\n
