A woman, Bilkisu Sani, has been arrested in Rogo Local Government Area of Kano State for allegedly k!lling her husband, Hafisu Gausu, who was reportedly planning to take a second wife.  A resident, Auwal Kazagi Rogo, told Daily Trust that the incident happened on Friday around 7pm, September 18, 2026 in the Katsalle area of Rogo town. He said residents rushed to the scene after hearing cries from Gausus wife, who claimed her husband had been kidnapped slaughtered. On reaching there, we saw that he was not slaughtered but hit on the head with an object. He fell and d!ed. There was even a sign of bite on his ear, Kazagi said. He added that police were immediately called and later evacuated the body for investigation. Kazagi added that it was alleged that Gausu had recently been engaged with another woman, with plans to marry her as a second wife. His decision had sparked repeated quarrels with Bilkisu, who allegedly vowed to stop the marriage.  Elders had earlier intervened in the dispute, but tensions persisted. Kazagi said police have since arrested Bilkisu as the prime suspect while investigations continue. The husband, on the other hand, was buried Saturday morning in Rogo according to Islamic rites. The couple had been married for nearly seven years, with two children, and Bilkisu is said to be currently pregnant for the late husband.Sources at the area said Gausu had even asked his fiances family to bring the wedding date forward by two months due to his wifes resistance.     The post Woman allegedly k!lls her husband planning to marry second wife in Kano appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
