A housewife, identified as Hafsat Surajo has narrated how she killed their domestic staff, Nafiu Hafiz who prevented her from attempting to commit suicide.
Hafsat who made the confession when she was paraded before newsmen at the Kano Police headquarters, said the ugly incident leading to Nafiu’s death occurred when a quarrel ensued between them as he prevented her from achieving her mission.
According to her, “I killed him because he prevented me from killing myself. “While he attempted to snatch the knife from my hand, a quarrel ensued between us and in the process I had a cut in my hand and blood was gushing out.
He asked me to go in and change. It was when I went in to change and was coming out, I saw him lying down saying he was not feeling fine and was on medication. I saw the knife by his side and I seized the opportunity to pick up the knife and stabbed him severally.” Hafsat narrated.
Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Usaini Gumel said Hafsat’s husband, Dayyabu Abdullahi and their security guard, Mallam Adam have also been arrested for allegedly concealing the body of the deceased.
