 A woman has been arraigned before a Kano Upper Shari’a Court sitting in the Post Office area of Kano Municipality, for allegedly practicing polyandry, the act of marrying two husbands at the same time.

Harira Muhammad Tudun Murtala and her first husband, Sagiru Shuaibu T/Murtala, have been married for six months and living separately.

It was during his visit to her that he allegedly found a man on his matrimonial bed where he alerted neighbours on the situation.

When she appeared before the court, the woman first denied being married to her first husband, but when the judge ordered her to swear by the Qur’an, she retracted her statement.

The second husband, Bello Abdullahi Yankaba, also told the court that his marriage with her was contracted by her uncle, one Abdullahi Umar, upon the payment of a dowry of N100,000.

The judge, Khadi Munzali Tanko Soron- Dinki, directed further investigation by the Police and ordered that the woman and the second husband be remanded in a custodial facility till May 16.
