A fourteen-year-old bride, Wasila Umaru, has allegedly poisoned her 35-year- old groom, Umaru Sani and three others in Ungwar Yansoro, Gaya Local Government Area of Kano State.
Wasila was said to have bought a rat poison known in local parlance as Shinkafa Bera at a village market for N80.
She reportedly laced the food she prepared for her husband and his friends with the substance.
Two of the victims- Nasiru Mohammed and Alhassan Alhassan of Yansoro Kademi- died on the spot. The third victim, a woman, Indo Ibrahim, died in the hospital.
Ten other people ,who also ate the food, have been discharged from the hospital.
The suspect reportedly confessed to the crime, claiming that she did it because she was forced to marry a man she didn’t love.
Police spokesman Musa Magaji Majiya said the bodies had been taken to the hospital for autopsy.
Also in Kano, two men- Ghaddafi Yunusa and Hayadu Ibrahim- died after drinking Zobo juice at a wedding in Ungwar Uku quarters.
The police have arrested two suspects, who fled to Bauchi State.

ReplyDeleteMany loud mouths and no brain. Try to know b4 you embarrass yourself on public domain.
ReplyDeleteIslam NEVER support forced marriage. Even if you were to marry a slave her consent must be sought, she can AND MUST never be forced talkess of someone who ain't no slave. The muslim parents know it is sinful to force anyone to do anything. Rather, they can be advised, encouraged and persuaded - this is the Islam position on social issues. However, there may be some Muslim patents just as there are of other religions who forced their children to marry particular individual. It is indidividual parent decision not (certainly not) Islamic prescription. Or bring ur proof that Islam supports forced marriage, otherwise, shut up and go and learn. There is nothing stopping you from learning about Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Sikhism, etc except if you are lazy with loud mouths. The moment you see Islam or muslim you seem to be wired to say " hey, devil, terrorists, sharia, jihad. But I don't blame you, I blame the socialization you had. Go and learn!
Allow the idiots to talk and expose their illitracy cos they can never know what is correct; atleast not from their pastors.
