Police in Yobe state have arrested a 22-year-old man for cutting off the hand of his wife from the wrist.

The man identified as Baari Bacha reportedly attacked his wife Halima Bulama after she disobeyed his orders not to attend a friend’s ceremony in Damaturu.



Confirming his arrest, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of Yobe state Command, Dungus Abdulkarim, said in a statement that Bacha became furious after a heated argument with his wife, and then used a cutlass to perpetrate the act.

He proceeded to her parent’s house and found her there,” he stated.
The police spokesman said the victim’s brothers persuaded her to follow her husband home, but she refused and her action ignited an argument between herself and her husband.

Well, if this news got you surprised, then you're a long way from understanding what a core northerner can do.
This is no different from what is being practised in Sharia law so the guy only displayed what he thought was right.
The fact that he did it in front of his inlaws shows that it is nothing unusual and there is nothing to fear.

Hausa-fulani are not a people you would want to share the same country with

What women go thru in the north, our southern women have not gone thru half of it and they will be posting men are trash. Now this is how a trash treats someone. I pity the girl and pray justice takes its course.

The brothers of that woman are the biggest fools alive, a stupid husband comes to your family house to cut your sister's hand and they just stood there doing nothing.

Brothers from hell.

22 Years old I don't think his brain is old enough to handle marriage issue because some men and women at 50 is still trying to cope and learn new things everyday in their married lives, but 22 ? and he is also from a violent region no wonder !!

Thats because even them will do same in that situation. Do you know how many times they themselves have cut off someone's sister's hand?
This is nothing unusual in a sharia controlled area.

Were they mad when they allowed a 22 year old (might be even 18 when he married) marry their daughter?

is there no serial killers in Nigeria? only crime of passion and ritual killings
no HEISTS just Armed Robbery way dey cast anyhow
no wonder we love god so much

That is what you get when a 22 year old that can't even wipe his ass clean gets married

Poverty!!

These abòkis

What is a 22 year old boy doing with marriage. He may have been married around 17 or 16.
Anyways let him chose one his hand to be chopped off.
Please let it short sleeve.

22 years? Man, this is unbelievable. Sha, to the man, he's passed his judgement 'sharially'.

I'm more interested in how the brothers reacted...

in his in-law house?


I don't think I will allow you to leave alive

This is wickedness.

At that age...wetin this mumu aboki sabi about marriage ?

Women are nothing but a property in that area and killing them is normal and acceptable. Northerners and Southerners have nothing whatsoever in common, nothing and should never live together as one people. I would have been happier if they just live together and practice their religion and be happy too. I just don’t want any thing to do with them. They look and think different and their religion is different too, moreover, how do you live with people whose god wants you dead, people who derive joy in killing.

The girl brothers are bloody cowards. They should have amputate his wrist too. An eye for an eye. The 22years aboki husband is still not matured to be married.

how is this romantic?
