Woman Bathes Co-Wife With Hot Water In Kaduna

A woman simply identified as Hauwa’u ran away after splashing boiling water on her co-wife, Bushra Ibrahim, in the Unguwar Sadauki in Jere Town, Kagarko Local Government Area, Kaduna State.

According to information obtained, the incident took place at their married home on Sunday, February 18, 2024, at around 10 p.m., three months after Bushra was brought in as the couple’s second wife.

In an interview with the Daily Trust, the victim revealed that the suspect had insisted on entering her room to retrieve an item that she had claimed was hers.

“I demanded to find out what the item was, and she responded that it was a pillow which had been kept with me by our husband. I insisted that she should wait for the return of our husband who had travelled to Kano for business,” she explained.

“I then called our husband over the phone to inquire about the pillow. He told me the pillow belonged to someone else entrusted to him, but that since she had insisted on it, I should give it to her for the sake of peace.

“I, however, ended up fighting with Hauwa’u, and in the process dragged her out of my room. She threatened me that I should expect something from her and left for her room

“The following day, I left the house for a wedding, and on getting back around 8 pm, we spoke to each other. I received a call from our husband about two hours thereafter, who demanded that I prepare something for him to eat. I was in the process of cooking when she came behind me and poured hot water over me.”

Malam Ibrahim Mai Inyas, the woman’s husband, claimed that all attempts to get in touch with his first wife, the suspect, had been unsuccessful thus far. The suspect left the region right away with their one-year-old boy.
