A 17-year-old wife accused of killing her husband as he tried to have sex with her in Bauchi has said she had no idea sex is a marital obligation, so she thought her husband was trying to defile her.
She told journalists that when her husband approached her for sex that night, she thought what he was doing was wrong, so she objected. However, her husband beat her and tried to force himself on her. She said she then picked a knife to scare him but mistakenly stabbed him with it. .
She said:
“I have already given my statement. I'm in great suffering. I'm in great bitterness. I don’t know what will happen to me now. But I wouldn’t have done what I did if I knew better."
