Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A 26-year-old man, Yusuf Zubairu has been arrested by the police in Jigawa State for allegedly killing his 23-year-old wife, Fatima Hardo.<\/p>\n

The incident, which reportedly happened on Wednesday, December 27, 2021, was disclosed to the press by the police spokesperson in the State, Lawan Adam.<\/p>\n

According to an eyewitness, Bulama Muntari-Ubale 65, the husband of the deceased, popularly referred to as \u201cAllo\u201d, used a stick to hit his wife on the head during the misunderstanding, which eventually led to her death. A woman who came to separate the fight was also seriously injured, Bulama said.<\/p>\n

Adams while briefing the press on the development said: \u201cIn the process of the fracas, the said Yusuf Zubairu (AKA Sallau) used a stick and hit Fatima Hardo (now deceased) to stupor, on her head.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen one Rabi Lawan, of the same address, came and separated them, the said Yusuf Zubairu, also inflicted serious injury on her.\u201d<\/p>\n

On receipt of the report, Adam said a team of policemen were dispatched to the scene of the incident where the couple resides at Baldi village, in Sule-Tankarkar Local Government Area of the State.<\/p>\n

He disclosed that the victims were rushed to Gumel General Hospital where the wife of the suspect was certified dead by medical personnel.<\/p>\n
