Couple divorce over Buhari
A man, Abdullahi Yada’u, has divorced his wife, Hafsat Suleiman, for her decision to vote for President Muhammadu Buhari in the February presidential election.The couple, who live in the Kanam Local Government Area of Plateau State, had both voted for Buhari in the 2015 elections.

Abdullahi, who spoke to the British Broadcasting Corporation Hausa Service on Thursday, said when he was not impressed by the performance of the President, he switched his loyalty to the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar.

He, however, noted that efforts to convince his wife to support the PDP candidate were rebuffed by Hafsat, who stuck to Buhari.

The man said he decided to divorce her over the issue.

He said, “I told her that she must not vote for him (Buhari), but she insisted, which led to a quarrel that attracted the attention of our neighbours. I slapped her and told her to choose between voting for Buhari and staying with me. She ran away.

Hafsat’s elder brother, Ibrahim Suleiman, expressed anger at Abdullahi’s action, saying the family had decided that the parties should go their separate ways.
