An Area Court in Jos on Wednesday sentenced one Abdullahi Usman to 12 months’ imprisonment for enticing a married woman and defaming her.

The presiding judge, Irene Pati, delivered the sentence after Usman pleaded guilty to the charges.

The court, however, gave the convict an option of a N50,000 fine in place of the 12-month jail term.

Police prosecutor, Ibrahim Gokwat, told the court that the case was reported at the Angwan Rogo Police Station on November 24, 2025, by the complainant, Hamza Aliyu.

According to the prosecutor, Usman allegedly called Aliyu’s wife and invited her to meet him at a hotel, threatening to accuse her of extramarital affairs and multiple abortions if she refused.

Gokwat added that Usman confessed to the offence during police investigations.
