The 18-year-old house wife, Salma Hassan, who allegedly stabbed her husband to death in Bauchi has confessed that she killed her husband in self defence after he made sexual advances 11 days into their marriage. She said she stabbed her husband because he was trying to rape her, adding that she didn’t know that sexual intercourse was part of the marital obligations.

Hassan disclosed this on Thursday when she was paraded by the police along with 21 other criminals including armed robbers and kidnappers. State Commissioner of Police, Philip Maku, who paraded the suspects at the Command Headquarters in Bauchi, said the alleged husband killer was arrested with a knife which she used to commit the crime at her home in Itas-Gadau local government area of the state.

“The husband, late Mohammed Mustapha was stabbed on the chest. “As a result, he sustained serious injury and was rushed to General hospital Itas–Gadau for treatment where he was certified dead.

“The suspect was arrested and has confessed to the crime. “Exhibit recovered from the suspect was one knife,” he said. In a brief chat with newsmen, Salma Hassan claimed that her husband was trying to defile her, stressing that she didn’t know that sex was part of marital obligations.

“On that day which is the eleventh day of our marriage, he approached me for sex, I refused him because I had never been involved in it before. “I thought he wanted to rape me but he got angry and was trying to force himself on me by beating me.

“I picked up a knife to scare him away but he kept coming and I didn’t know when I stabbed him with the knife in his chest. “I did not intend to killed him and I regret my action,” She added.

The police boss also disclosed that the command arrested a four-man kidnap syndicate over the alleged kidnap and killing of a 15-year old boy after collecting N5.5m ransom from his parents.

Unfortunately she is 18. That is why I detest child marriage

Unfortunately, yo going to jail due to ignorance.

Who should we blame? The 18yr old gal? The late husband? Or the Northern leaders?

I blame the Northern leaders for the poor foundation of the region.

How old was the late husband. Why disturbing us with her age since few days ago without telling us the man's age. That man most be over 50 years.

If she has a good lawyers, she will be freed based on self-defence. According to her, the man tried to force himself on her and beat her.

That you are married to someone does not confer on you the right of sex.

I wish all Northern states and the people can be demolished and restart all over again



Northerner behave as if we are still in the time of that foolish othman Dan fodio time when you do things at your will without considering humanity



something is really wrong with that region, southern Nigeria must act now and stop this backward region from bringing more backwardness to them

Lol what a dumb animal if she's telling the truth. You want to get your dick wet so bad you beat your wife then charge her while she's armed. The guy literally died over pussy. Personally I dont blame her considering the guy cornered her. Hopefully she beats her case and doesn't marry another mumu.

This is not an excuse in the court of law.
Objection my lord!

All those calling her a child don't know that the official age of maturity in Nigeria at present is 18yrs. She's considered an adult already.
Let a virginity test be conducted on her since she claimed not to have done such a thing before. If she passes the test, she has a very strong case that might even see her acquitted. If she fails it, then her case has a low chance.

Nobody is setting her free and this is not even a self defence. There is nothing like rape in marriage in Nigeria constitution, this is not America.

the joke is on you, you people can't even educate and orientate yourself but when it comes to religion that haven't improve you people life, you will be chanting blasphemy as if your life depend on it


how can people who are in 21 century be living with people in 13th century

See how they are changing the narrative to suit their "murder" agenda. It was reported the girl is 17 in major news outlet, you are here writing the girl is 18 to make it seem she was legally married.

I don't even think she is up to 17 looking at her picture, she looks 12 or 13. I won't put it past a Northerner to marry a girl at that age.

I hope the girl is set free. She is a victim of attempted rape, child molestation and child kidnapping. This small girl should be in school studying not being raped and birthing children like an animal.

it is a big considerable excuse because the girl may be forced and intimidate to marry the man Hausa are found of destroying their female child destiny marriage and sex is a things of mind and should be done at maturity stage.

even the holy prophet told not to have sex without pre-intimacy or romance.

many of them, don't have access to TV or social media to watch porn like guys down south. she may not have seen anything sex or sexy before in her life, all they do for entertainment is sit down with people in their compound jist, talk and enjoy. they hardly watch TV or press phones. some of them will even say it is haram.

boys don't mix with the girls, they outrightly

forbid it. their leaders in the north need to do something about their "sez education" there to avoid issues like this.

I don't blame the lady though.
women too have right to their bodies and can always say no, rape is bad.
RIP to the dead

Lol northern leardership told the mumu to charge at a armered person. He got himself killed because he refused to use common sense. He'd also be stupid enough to charge at someone with a gun if he had the chance.

Hhmmm... Yo got that viewed from a different perspective, agreed.

Her virginity is irrelevant to the case. What matters is if court believes she was being assaulted by her husband and couldn't escape.

The girl doesn't look like an eighteen year old to me.

Looks more like 14 or 15
