Shocking accusations: Man stabbed by his wife in Kano tells his side of the story

On June 22, 2019, Saheed Hussain was stabbed by his 21-year-old wife Fatima Musa, and she was thereafter arrested by the police.

During interrogation, she claimed she did it in self defense. Her husband Saheed has now recovered from the stab wounds.

He held a press conference yesterday to state his own side of the story.

Here is what he said:

“I caught my wife dancing indecently in my parlour where she was recording the dance on her phone and sending the video clips to her boyfriends.
.
.
I told her mother about it and she asked me if my wife’s elder sister and grandmother knew what was happening and she pleaded with me not to reveal it to anyone so as not to soil the image of their family.
.
.
I challenged one of the boyfriends with whom my wife was exchanging voice notes but said he was not aware that my wife was a married woman. This is one of over 30 voice messages I found.
.
.
I also have CCTV evidence on how my wife invited her lover from Abuja and had a session with him in a hotel in Bompai, on 26th of April. She was at the hotel from 10:13 a.m and stayed up to 12:16 pm. .
.
Also on that same day, a Friday, I caught her taking drugs in my house. During the last Ramadan fast, she sprinkled drops of poisonous insecticides in my food, a meal of fried eggs. I have the evidence of that too.
.
.
When the problem became so serious, we had to seek audience with Dr. Bashir (Umar), chief Imam of Al-Furqan Jumuat Mosque, who is a well respected marriage counsellor in order to get advice and save the marriage.
.
.
We went to see Dr. Bashir along with my wife, her mother and her elder brother in my car. I narrated all my accusations against her including her infidelity, promiscuity and drug abuse which she all admitted to Dr. Bashir.
.
.
But it was on the same day after we returned home that she stabbed me with a knife after I seized her phone, which she used to send her nude pictures and videos to her boyfriends.” .
