Woman begs court to clarify her marital status.

Abdussalam, through her counsel, MT Abdullahi, told the court that his client has been living with her parents for seven months.

Responding, Sulaiman, a civil servant said: ”I did not divorce my wife.

”We are still married. I have continued to provide for her while she was at her parents’ house.

”My rent will expire in July 2022 and I will not want to waste money. I asked her to look for a house where I can afford but she went for an expensive one that I cannot afford to pay,” he said.
