Mrs. Wasilat Saka, a public servant, begged a Grade 1 Area Court in Kubwa, Abuja, to dissolve  her marriage to Tajudeen Jimoh on Thursday due to alleged desertion and divergent religious views.

Saka informed the court that she wed Jimoh on July 30, 2022, in accordance with Islamic Law, and she said that no children were born of the union.

She stated that Jimoh, who identified himself as a Muslim, abandoned her and refused to observe the Islamic rituals for months.

“My husband does not observe five daily prayers and does not observe Ramadan fast either.

“We always quarrel and fight; for these reasons, I beg the court to grant my request for a divorce, ”Saka said.

Though Jimoh was absent from court, the court’s bailiff, Mr Dangana Bawa, tendered a proof that he was served the hearing notice.

The Judge, Ibrahim Rufai, adjourned the matter until June 13, for judgement.
