A civil servant, Salihu Abdulkadir, has dragged his former wife, Balkisu Yunusa, before an Upper Area Court in Mararaba, Nasarawa State, over the documentation of his house and land following the dissolution of their marriage.
Abdulkadir, who appeared before the court, said he and his former wife both reside in Mararaba, within the Karu Local Government Area of the state. 
He told the court that he owned a house and a parcel of land, adding that his former wife and their children were currently occupying one of the houses.
“My former wife and our children are currently living in one of the houses. I pray the court to help me document the property,” he said.
In her response, Yunusa, according to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), told the court that she was not responsible for the documentation of the properties.
Following the submissions, the presiding judge, Mohammed Shomo, adjourned the case to a later date for further proceedings.
The court is expected to continue hearing the matter as the dispute over the property documentation remains unresolved.
