Katsina woman stabs husband to death over phone charger
Published

Olaide Oyelude, Katsina



A 17-year-old housewife, Rabi Rabi’u, who stabbed her husband, Shamsu Salisu, to death in Katsina State last Wednesday, has explained that a misunderstanding on who should first charge their mobile telephone led to a scuffle in which he died.

Rabi, who was paraded at the Katsina State Police Command Headquarters on Tuesday, said amidst sobs that she never knew the stab could lead to the death of the 25-year-old Salisu.

According to her, the incident happened on Wednesday morning when public power supply was restored in their community and she wanted to charge her phones.


She said Salisu equally wanted to charge his phones at the same time.

She added the argument led to a scuffle between the two of them, adding that Salisu drew out a knife, which she snatched from him.

Rabi, who spoke in Hausa explained, “The incident happened early in the morning during prayer time. Public power supply was restored in our area and I wanted to charge my phones, while Salisu also wanted to charge his.


“Unfortunately, we were arguing over who should use the charger first when Salisu drew out a knife and I snatched it from him and stabbed him in the stomach and he later died.

“Our marriage was just 51-day-old and we were yet to have children, but I still love him. I never knew that the stab would lead to his death.

The spokesman for the command, SP Gambo Isah, while parading the housewife, said, “On January 29, 2020, around 5.30am, the DPO, Malumfashi Division, responded to a distress call based on a report that one Shamsu Salisu, 25, of the Almakiyayi village, Malumfashi Local Government Area of Katsina State, had an altercation with his wife, one Rabi Rabi’u, 17, of the same address, but later while he was asleep, the wife stabbed him with a knife in several places in his body, including his abdomen.


“As a result, he sustained serious injuries. The police team rushed the victim to the Malumfashi General Hospital, where he was confirmed dead.

When people are so used to playing rough play.. This is usually the end result.

That's why I don't understand Horror films, one dead guy will just wake up and begins to kill everybody. Why can't the dead guy just wake up and begin to dey share money or iron people's clothes.

Which kin play dem play sotay he reach to hold knife for inside the play?
Re: Katsina Woman Stabs Husband To Death Over Phone Charger by Nobody:
So who is using the charger now?...

Let's be cautious with our dealings no matter how little, we never know the level of peoples frustrations.

The inability to save the life of a stab victim is a failure of hospital systems in Nigeria.

Even a razor cut can lead to death in Nigeria. First you lose a lot of blood since no emergency ambulance, no any form of taking victim to hospital immediately.

Even when u get to hospital, no medical personnel to attend to you. Sometimes they need police report. Sometimes no treatment drugs and all that.

You keep on losing blood until you die off. I don't blame those who call Nigeria a zoo. Sentiment apart, to be a Nigerian is not a day job.

RIP man. Please lets ensure to stay out of trouble. Again, always have control of your anger.

A 17 years old housewife?

Is she not suppose to be in school?

Wait a minute, is having sex to a girl child below 18 legal in NIGERIA?

Are my eyes paining Me, because what I'm seeing now is 17 years old married girl.

Well everything is wrong with the union from the first moment.

Now you deny a girl an Education, she is not happy with the marriage and out of frustration, she kills the husband.

Now I'm not in support of the girl because she must take responsibility for her actions.
But at the same time, Education and exposure to a girl child goes a long way in solidifying the character of the girl.

Education does not teaches you how to read and write only, it teaches you how to communicate, how to control your temper and emotions, in general Education teaches you how to live with people.

But when you deny a girl child this, a girl from the village, you think marriage will make her happy?

If investigation is to be conducted, you will discover that the seventeen years old is in a force Marriage because of poverty.

The death could have been avoided, this is one of the things i was discussing with Tonyebarcanista in a thread.

Now the dead husband could not be man enough to approach any strong, Educated lady for marriage, instead he goes for a weak girl that has no opinion, now he is dead.

Now any girl can have good character, be her educated or not but you discover that some men wants a wife they can order around like maids and they run away from that lady that Educated, self dependent Lady, but in reality this Educated self dependent Ladies, makes the best wives and mothers to our kids.

Sorry was it lack of education that made that guy in Anambra throw his pregnant girlfriend off the balcony of a 2 story building?

Was it lack of education that made that man in Abia shoot his wife dead despite pleas from his in-laws to live in peace with her?

Was it lack of education that made a man kill his neighbours child for cutting his vegetables? In edo

Was it lack of education that made that woman kill her husband in Oyo claiming they were fighting?

Was it lack of education that made Sands murder her husband because of a text message?

Some people aren't just ok, they get easily provoked of the slightest thing, education does not cure anger.

This story sounds too wild to be true. This would be a really dumb reason to go to prison. She could've used another outlet. The best plot twist would be she doesn't pay the light bill.

I never knew that the stab would lead to his death.
Lol you believed this because you bought non lethal knives?

Is there any part of the country where there are no high cases of homicide?
Make your critics and go you don't necessarily need to term it to any tribe or region.
Talks like this are the main reason why top bodies like CAN had to lie on the identity of that guy who tried to bomb a church instead of out rightly condeming it.
Please be guided in your statement

is the death toll coming from murder , banditory and terrorism from the north not alarming? will it kill a Northerner to speak the truth.. or you think you are answerable to Buhari or your leaders on the day of Judgement?

speak the truth, North is a dangeroius zone with daily news of violence and death.. daily.. they come to our land they kill women and kids, in your land you kill, you force kids into marriage and when they give birth you throw them on street to beg and tag them Almajiri, Almajiri grows up to turn monster then you keep silent do you think Allah is happy with all this

its better to loose favour from man saying the truth when it counts that keeping silent to support evil

the statement reads life has less value in Nigeria especially northern part.. is North a tribe? isnt daily news comming from North filled with murder and mass murder? you travel down south with trails of death and vilence, up north its the same if we speak, you find a way of denying and blaming Chad and Niger, some of you scream it is political, and we are attacking your buhari, same buhari we finaced to the position and even defended in court over his eligibility

how long do you northerners think we can all pretend all is well..

your first question: north is a region and I clearly stated it.
2ndly: daily news also come from the south on murder and mass murder.

3rdly; did I scream political? The only person playing politics is the guy I quoted who's trying to impress the south with his eye service talks..

no part of the statement is eye service yes life is now meaningless in the north with bride marriage, and almajiri system not to talk of terrorrism and baditory, and for every one mass murder in the south (which fulanis sometimes are responsible for) i will give you ten links to news of gruesome mass murder in the north

I see a northerner walking around with a dagger in this age and i ask why? why are you this prepared for violence, why dagger and not a book.. a man with dagger would one day be tempted to use it

No it was not lack of Education but at the same time.

What I'm saying is that Education makes you to be aware of the consequences of some certain decisions you want to make and it's the consequences are bad, you tends to let go.

Education affords you the ability to reason.

But in truth, it does little to stop anger but at the same time, it is only a woman or a man that is Educated that knows he or she needs anger management.
