14-year-old Wasilat Tasi’u is a child bride and also a convicted murderer. Tasi’u killed her thirty-five year husband Umar Sani as a desperate attempt to be set free of the subordination of their arranged marriage and now she’s possibly facing the death penalty.

Wasilat father Isyaku Tasi’u pleaded to the Nigerian court of Kano State Ministry of Justice to withdraw its sentence for young Wasilat. Her husband died in April, two weeks after their wedding.

The Nigerian activist Zubeida Nagee led a protest letter to the state deputy governor standing beside Tasi’u, and an excerpt from the letter reads: “She was married to a man that she didn’t love. She protested but her parents forced her to marry him.”

9. Augustina Ihugba

“Augustina poured the acid on him, set him ablaze and ran into hiding. Raymond was rushed to the Emergency Ward of the FMC, Owerri, from where he was transferred to the ward 10 of the hospital where he eventually gave up the ghost,” a witness explained.

For the sake of decency, we have decided not to share the photos of the victim here.

CAPSLOCKED:
80% OF THEM WENT FREE BECAUSE THEY BLAMED IT ON SELF DEFENCE.

THE OTHER 20% RECEIVED ONLY MINIMAL PENALTY BECAUSE THEY BLAMED IT ON THE DEVIL.

AND MR. CROCODILE TEARS WILL ALWAYS BE AVAILABLE TO BAIL THEM OUT.

And this list does not include those that killed their husbands by poison, and said the men were poisoned at beer parlour.

Say no to violence whether done by man against a woman, or a woman against a man.

Only 10 against 1,000,000 Nigerian men that have butchered their wives in 2 years!

Hell knows no fury like a woman scorned. Women can be dangerous when provoked, especially when it has to do with issues of infidelity.

Aisha Buhari will make it 11

After reading these stories, I wont cheat on my girlfriend, not to talk of my wife.

I pray we don't end up with such partner cos it's a vice-versa thing but the child bride story is understandable
