An SS II student, Sakina Ibrahim, 19, yesterday, approached an area court sitting in Gwagwalada, Abuja, and asked it to intervene in an attempt by her parents to impose a husband on her.

Miss Ibrahim, a native of Gurfata village, a student of GSS Izom, Niger State, in a petition, alleged that Adamu Sule, a class teacher, has tried to establish a relationship with her, which she declined. She said her parents were also putting pressure on her to accept Sule’s proposal.

The Judge, Adamu Isah, said she was not the right person to sue and so struck out the case and advised her to go to the village head of her community for intervention.
