20-Year-Old Bride Sets Husband’s House Ablaze In Adamawa

Amina Hassan, a 20-year-old bride from Mubi North Local Government Area of Adamawa State, has been arrested for reportedly setting her husband’s house on fire.

Amina’s action was reportedly triggered by her husband’s refusal to grant her a divorce.

The couple were said to have made the agreement before their marriage.

According to reports, Amina had informed her parents that she was no longer interested in the marriage a few days before the wedding.

However, they insisted that the wedding must go ahead as they had already distributed invitation cards.

After the wedding, she sought the help of a native doctor to make her husband hate her and grant her a divorce.

The native doctor reportedly performed a ritual and collected N12,000 for his services.

However, the ritual ended up turning Amina’s heart away from her husband instead of the other way round.

After she was apprehended by the Adamawa State Police Command, the suspect confessed to the committing the crime.

It was reported that the case is currently being investigated as ordered by the Commissioner of Police, Afolabi Babatola.

Spokesman of the Police Command, SP Suleiman Yahaya Nguroje, quoted Amina on Tuesday, as saying, “We made an arrangement that he will divorce me after the marriage. I met him and pleaded with him to divorce me, but he remained adamant.”
