Kaduna-based Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi files a case against businessman Nasiru Musa Idris after allegations spread that he “took” or abducted Idris’s Moroccan wife. The dispute follows viral circulation of a video involving the woman, which prompted media reports and public claims.
The suit is filed before the Kaduna State Upper Sharia Court. Premium Times reports the matter is presented as defamation, tied to accusations broadcast across multiple media outlets. Legit.ng similarly describes the claim as involving Idris’s Moroccan wife and highlights that the allegation gains traction after the woman’s video goes viral.
While the outlets differ in how they phrase the allegation—“took” versus “abducting”—both describe the same core complaint: Idris publicly links Gumi to wrongdoing involving his Moroccan wife, and Gumi responds through legal action. The reports do not describe the court’s outcome or any defenses yet.
