“He then asked his wife about the pregnancy and she confirmed that the pregnancy wasn’t his,” the counsel to the plaintiff’ told the court.
The counsel prayed the court to compel the defendants to pay his client the sum of N100, 000 as compensation for deception.
The defendants, through their lawyer, Mr Abubakar Suleiman, denied the allegations.
Suleiman argued that the plaintiff ought to have raised the alarm the very moment he discovered his wife’s alleged pregnancy rather than wait until the baby was born.
The defense counsel submitted that the plaintiff was the father of the child, hence, there was no need to pay any compensation.
The judge, Malam Muhammad Adamu-Shehu adjourned the case till November 11, to enable the plaintiff present his witnesses before the court.
