When lawyers file petitions for divorce or judicial separation in the registry of the court, it comes with a lot of backlash. So long you represent the petitioner, questions will fly around like...

Thread.
“Ahn Ahn lawyer, why did you not settle these people’s marital problems. Why are you filing their case in court?”
At such moment, we just allow the officials to do the talking, they have a right to their opinion. When they finish, we would invite them to see the facts of the petition and then they calm down. They realise it goes beyond filing for divorce or judicial separation.

Relationships have always been complicated from the very beginning of time.

My name is Zainab Salihu, I am from Niger state but grew up in Kano, I am the first born of my parents. #DIVORCEDIARIES #Jaruma
People judge you for making mistakes when they have not been in your shoes.

My mother died when giving birth to my brother when I was 5 and 2 years later my father married my mother's cousin who at the time was a divorcee with a daughter.

My father although a driver for a private company always tried his best to see that he catered to us as best he could but as years passed by and he started having more kids things started becoming difficult. #DivorceDiaries #Jaruma

He was among the grooms friends and he was so good looking all the girls including me,had eyes for him but he didn't seem to notice us, he just chatted away on his phone. #DivorceDiaries
After the wedding I was trying to get a car to school in Zaria and as the fate would have it the groom asked Kabir to give me a lift as he was also headed for Zaria. #DivorceDiaries

I got married very early in life. I was in my first year in the university. I married my distant cousin, AbdulSamad (Abdul). I hardly knew him, to be honest.But it was the Fulani way; we were arranged for each other. Everyone said I was lucky #DivorceDiaries #DomesticViolenceinNN
They said he was a nice man, a religious and pious man and that he would make a very nice and caring husband. Abdul was well educated in expensive schools in Europe, and had a good job in the oil and gas industry. #DivorceDiaries #DomesticViolenceinNN

I met Garba when I was a young impressionable and naïve 19 year old. For him, it was love at first sight, but for me, i realized much later that i didn’t even know what love was when I met and married him. #DomesticViolenceinNN #DivorceDiaries #yashafeni
I was so brainwashed by those novels and romantic songs. Garba was the perfect man during our courtship period. He was sweet, funny, charming and generous. As far as I was concerned I would get my happy ending with him. #DivorceDiaries #DomesticViolenceinNN #yashafeni

RECAP S01E02: My name is Barrister Aliyu Ahmed and I would like to share my #DivorceDiaries with you.

I’m 44yo, a lawyer from Jigawa STATE, and the chief Legal Officer of a new generation bank. I met my wife at law school. Her name: Barrister Aisha Malumfashi. [A thread]
Aisha was my wife for 10 years. She was a powerhouse of intellect. What attracted me to her was her brilliance in class always answering questions even during group discussions. Her contributions were always brilliant and thought provoking. I was floored #DivorceDiaries
I also considered myself quite the guru, having graduated with a 2.1 from Ahmadu Bello University. Aisha was my equal, intellectually. She was and still is a powerful mix of brains, beauty and booty. We were in the same study group so it was easy for us... - #DivorceDiaries

When I was a younger I was a very beautiful woman.
My father was the Chief Imam of our town so I was well sought after by suitors. In fact by the time I was 17 I had more than twenty proposals from different families seeking my hand in marriage. #DivorceDiaries
