A Kano Sharia court has remanded a nursing mother, Habiba Inusa, and her seven-day-old baby in prison custody for adultery.

Habiba Inusa allegedly gave birth a day after she participated alongside 1,520 couples in a state-sponsored mass wedding last week. The Director General, Kano Hisbah Board, Dr. Abba Sifu, in an interview with a local radio station, said that the woman is currently under the custody of the court in Doguwa Local Government Area. Dr. Sifu said that the woman was arraigned before a Sharia court in Doguwa Local Government Area of the state for adultery and deliberate concealment of pregnancy. The Director-General disclosed that government had confiscated room furniture and other items earlier given her as part of the wedding. Dr. Sifu said: “Habiba confessed to the court that she was pregnant months before the mass wedding exercise and that she offered her younger sister’s urine to escape pregnancy screening exercise.
