A businessman, Lawal Hamisu, on Thursday prayed a Shari’a Court in Magajin Gari, Kaduna to order his 25 year-old son, Muhammad, to leave his house.

Mr Hamisu’s counsel, H.B Debo, told the court that his client’s son has a thriving business and can take care of himself and rent a place to stay.

“He disrespects me and does not obey me.  I want him to leave my house in two weeks time,” Mr Hamisu said.

In his defence, Muhammad said “Things are difficult right now. My business is not going well for me. I am working under someone. I can’t afford to rent a house. I use the proceeds from the business to feed and pay school fees.”

The Judge, Yakubu Abdullahi, adjourned the case until August 8 for ruling.
