THE Niger State Police Command has arrested a 14-year-old wife from Lifari Village in the Mashegu Local Government Area of the state for allegedly killing her 40-year-old husband, Isiaka Usman.

It was learnt that the suspect, Aisha Isah, and the late Usman, to whom she got married five months ago, were cousins.

Northern City News gathered that Isah had been complaining of starvation and maltreatment since she started living with Usman, who already had two wives.

One of the two wives was said to have left on account of the failure of Usman to meet up with his responsibilities to his family.

The teenage wife told our correspondent on Tuesday that her late husband failed to provide for her for two days.

“And when I confronted him, he slapped me and out of anger, I hit him on the forehead with a pestle and he collapsed and died,” she explained.

Isah added, “My husband had the habit of not giving us money for food and each time we (the wives) confront him, he would tell us to go to our parents’ home and eat. He never cared about us; he beat us every time we demanded money for food.”

Asked if the other wife was at home at the time of the incident, she stated that the other wife went to the hospital with her baby.

“My mate was not around; it was only me and my late husband that were in the house at the time of the incident. I picked a pestle and hit him, he fell on the ground and I ran to my mother’s house at Kahigu Village in Mashegu council,” Isah said.

Isah said she inadvertently killed her husband out of anger and pleaded for forgiveness.

“I am sorry for what happened, it is the devil’s work and I pray my parents will forgive me; I never knew that he would die, I regretted all my actions,” she stated.

The police spokesman, Bala Elkana, explained that the victim died at Mashegu Hospital where he was taken for treatment.

Elkana described the incident as unfortunate, but added that the suspect would nevertheless be prosecuted as a juvenile offender.

A 40 year-old man, Sani Idris, of Maska village in Funtua Local Government Area of Katsina State, is now in prison custody on the orders of a Katsina Senior Magistrate Court.

He was accused of hypnotizing and having sexual intercourse with seven married women.



He was said to have lied to his victims that their husbands were wizards and members of the occult.

The accused is facing charges of rape and ‘attempt to commit an offence to wit causing miscarriage’, which police said, are contrary to section 283 and 95 of the Penal Code.

Senior Magistrate Abdulkareem Umar had remanded Idris in prison custody on Friday and adjourned the case till July 24, 2017 for mention.

The police told the court that the husband of one of the victims, Muntari Samaila, lodged a complaint against Idris at the Funtua Central Police station.

Samaila reportedly told the police on June, 11, 2017 that on the previous day, his wife, Maimunatu,19 years, had informed him that Idris who claimed to be a soothsayer phoned her with number, 08148122935, asking her to come down to his house located also at Maska village.

He added that on getting to the house, Idris allegedly told Maimunatu that her husband was a wizard and that he would help her to “tackle him.”

The accused was said to have thereafter prepared some concoction for Maimunatu to drink to abort her one month pregnancy after which recited some incantations.

Sumaila further told the police that the accused subsequently had sex with Maimunatu and warned her not to tell anyone.

“Upon interrogation, the suspect confessed to have committed the offence and further said he had done the same thing to other women,” the police First Information Report stated.

Nigerian man has been arrested in eastern France after being found with condoms stuffed with 79,000 euros ($90,000) hidden in his stomach, customs officials said Monday.

The man, arrested Saturday in Strasbourg, had another 13,000 Swiss francs (11,900 euros, $13,500) concealed in his clothes, the officials said.

The man told customs agents that he lived in Spain and worked as a dishwasher at a restaurant in the Balearic Islands.


But a sniffer dog detected marijuana on the banknotes hidden in his clothing.

That led to an X-ray that revealed the presence of nine condoms stuffed with bank notes in the man’s intestines.

He has been charged with laundering drug money and lying to customs authorities.

Can you see it

This is serious. After collecting huge sums of money from their customers, they'll remotely trigger an inbuilt bomb so that they'll come and buy another one. This is why I love Hyundai. Cheap car yet very sophisticated and innovative

Audi’s effort to emerge from the diesel scandal that has engulfed parent Volkswagen AG for more than a year suffered a setback as the luxury-car brand identified more cars in Europe that might breach emission rules.

Some 24,000 Audi flagship A8 sedans and A7 four-door coupes built between 2010 and 2013 will be recalled after “irregularities” were discovered in emission tests that indicated the cars might spew out as much as twice the pollution limits under some circumstances, Ingolstadt, Germany-based Audi said Thursday in an emailed statement.

“Engine speed can be influenced unfavorably by the gearbox software” in the affected cars, which can be made compliant with a software update that takes about 30 minutes, Audi said. The manufacturer agreed with German regulators on a recall that starts next month and affects 14,000 cars in its domestic market alone. Audi is in “constant contact with the relevant authorities,” a spokesman said by phone.

The fresh findings on Audi’s top models are a blow to a company that’s VW’s biggest profit contributor and therefore a vital component to absorb the hit from the diesel-emissions scandal that has cost the manufacturer 22.6 billion euros ($25.4 billion) so far. From the roughly 11 million diesel cars affected worldwide across the VW group, Audi has accounted for about 2.1 million vehicles until now.

Munich prosecutors responded to Thursday’s news by extending an existing Audi probe to include the additional models, prosecutors spokesman Ken Heidenreich said by phone. It’s the first time that office is investigating Audi cars sold in Europe, as the review so far has been limited to U.S. sales.

The revelation comes two weeks after Audi prolongedthe contract of Chief Executive Officer Rupert Stadler. VW Chairman Hans Dieter Poetsch said last month that investigations by external law firms haven’t brought any evidence that board members were aware of or involved in the illicit conduct.

Audi has been falling behind German rivals Mercedes-Benz and BMW AG in the global luxury-car race, and now ranks third in sales, having previously aspired to gain the top slot. German prosecutors are looking into Audi’s role in the cheating and have raided offices of the carmaker’s law firm that conducted an external probe into the roots of the engine rigging.

Apple and Nokia have settled an ongoing patent dispute and entered a new licensing agreement, the two companies announced on Tuesday.

Under a business collaboration agreement, Nokia will provide network infrastructure services to Apple, while Apple will resume selling Nokia health products, which were previously sold under the Withings brand. Apple pulled Withings products from its online and retail stores in December 2016, days after Nokia sued the company for patent infringement.

Details of the licensing agreement remain confidential, but Nokia said it will receive an up-front cash payment from Apple, as well as additional revenues. The companies said in a joint press release that they are also “exploring future collaboration in digital health initiatives.”

The agreement marks the end of a patent dispute that began last year, when Nokia sued Apple in Germany and the US, alleging infringement of 32 patents. The two companies sued one another in 2009, and struck a licensing agreement in 2011.

A JAPANESE nun has been arrested and charged on suspicion of helping priests sexually abuse deaf children at an Argentinean school.
Kosaka Kumiko was accused of helping priests with anal and vaginal rapes, handling and MouthAction, which were allegedly committed in the bathrooms, dormitories, garden and a basement at the Antonio Provolo Institute for children in Lujan de Cuyo.

The 42-year-old was pictured in handcuffs and wearing her habit and a bullet-proof vest as she was escorted by police to a court hearing.
A case against the nun was launched after a former student claimed Kumiko had made her wear a diaper in order to cover up a haemorrhage after she was allegedly raped by priest Horacio Corbacho.

Kumiko denies any wrong-doing and told judicial officials: “I am innocent.”
She was detained at a local women’s prison while the alleged crimes are investigated.
Kumilo, who has Argentine citizenship, has also been charged with physically abusing students.
Corbacho, fellow priest Nicola Corradi and three other men were arrested last year after they were charged with sexually abusing at least two dozen students at the Provolo Institute.
They are being held at a jail in Mendoza and have not spoken publicly since the arrest.
If found guilty, the accused face 10 to 50 years in prison.
Three school employees, Jorge Bordon, Jose Luis Ojeda and Armando Gomez, were also arrested and remain in custody.
Investigators are looking into more than 30 testimonies against the priests and teaching staff.
