Husband Hacks Wife With Machete For Withholding Sex

Kaduna — Kaduna State
Police Command has declared
one Musa Rabiu wanted.
He was said to have inflicted
severe machete cuts on his
wife, Ramatu Ibrahim, over
allegation of depriving him
sex.
The middle-aged woman, who
is still in coma, was reported
to be presently receiving
treatment at a private
hospital on Rabah Road,
Kaduna North Local
Government area as a result
of injuries she sustained.
According to investigations
by Daily Independent,
Ramatu Ibrahim's husband
had called her under the
pretense that he wanted to
see her so they could
reconcile their differences
for the sake of their
marriage.
He was said to have asked
her to meet him at their
former house located at
Layin Masalachin Bugaje in
Malali, where he is the gate
man.
Ramatu revealed: "since I
was not suspecting any foul
play, I went there the next
day as agreed by 10.00 a.m.
"When I got there, he started
talking to me on how he
intends to bring me back to
the house as his wife.
"What spoiled the whole
thing was that at about 12.30
p.m., after we had finished
discussion and I have agreed
to go back, he said we should
go into the room and catch
fun like husband and wife.
"I refused outrightly and
told him that he has to go to
my people in Mararaban Jos
and intimate them on the
new development before that
could happen; I guess that
made him angry.
"The next thing I saw, he
removed his clothes, that he
wanted to have his bath. But
unknown to me, he went in to
get a machete and before I
knew what was happening, he
started inflicting cuts all
over my body.
"I could not do anything but
to pray to Allah because He
knows and sees everything.
"When he was done inflicting
machete cuts me, he put his
clothes on, locked me in the
house and left the premises.
"It was by God's grace I
managed to drag myself out
of the house to the gate
where I tried to call the
attention of passers-by who
later alerted the proper
authorities and I was brought
to the hospital," Ramatu said.
She said during the 10
months that their marriage
lasted, "Musa had been very
wicked to me".
"I never visited my relations,
as anytime I asked him to go
home and see my family, he
refuses, even the day my
junior sister came to visit us,
he was very unhappy about it
and he even asked me if I
told her what was happening
between the two of us and I
said no," Ramatu narrated.
According to her, the matter
was reported to the police
who have launched a manhunt
for the husband who is said
to be at large.
