MARRIED FATHER OF FOUR WAS ARRESTED FOR INCINERATING A WOMAN

A married father of four was arrested for incinerating a woman who refused to marry him

The Adamawa police command has arrested Ibrahim Muhammadu for masterminding the murder of a newly married woman because she dumped him.

The suspect is said to have paid someone to set fire to the woman and her husband on September 6, just two weeks after their wedding. On Saturday, September 10, it was learned that the woman died as a result of severe births while the man was being treated in the hospital.

Ibrahim Muhammad, a married man with four children, reportedly fell in love with the deceased and spent about N150,000 on her after she agreed to marry him. The deceased allegedly declined after collecting the money.

Muhammadu, it was learned, organized the killing by hiring one Ibrahim Savanna, paying him N5,000 and giving him four measures of rice in exchange for killing the couple. Ibrahim Savanna, armed with petrol and matches, went to the couple's room in the middle of the night and set it on fire after locking it up.
