Olowo ja iyawo jagammm: My best friend hynotised, snatched my wife of 15 years— man tells court

A herdsman, Jibril Adamu, 32, has told a
Grade 1 Upper Area Court in Mararaba
that his best friend, Halilu Lawal, 35,
hypnotised and snatched his wife, Aisha,
from him.
Adamu, who resides in Gurku Cassa
village, Mararaba, Nasarawa State,
testified in court that Lawal was the
reason why his wife lost interest in their
15-year-old marriage.
"He gave her a charm and deceived her
that it was for protection not knowing
that it was a love portion charm.
"My wife went and told her mother about
it, and her mother in turn told me.
"I took the matter to the head of our
village and there he admitted that truly
he charmed my wife," Adamu said.
In his testimony, Lawal denied the
allegations, saying: "I am not responsible
for Adamu's wife leaving him.
After listening to both parties, the
presiding judge, Mr Albert Maga,
adjourned the case until April 1 for
continuation of hearing.
He urged both parties to bring their
witnesses to court on the adjourned date.
Adamu had instituted a suit against the
accused on March 19 over an alleged
intentional insult and cheating. (NAN)
