The advent of the Global System Mobile Communication (GSM) phones in Nigeria about a decade ago was generally adjudged a welcome development. It was a far cry from, and good riddance to the hitherto epileptic and restricted telecom services provided by the Nigerian Telecommunications Limited (NITEL). With the GSM services, Nigerians have unrestricted access to communication irrespective of status and creed. However, much as the services brought joy to its numerous subscribers, it nevertheless, has caused untold disaffection amongst many families. Many relationship and of course, marriages, have long packed up in the wake of this services in the country. Unfaithful partners have been detected through surreptitious conversations and or text messages. Such illicit conversations with an alleged male lover recently sent a mother of five to an early grave by an angry and jealous husband. Mrs Titilayo Taofeek Badaru, a 30 -year-old petty trader met her man, Mr. Taofeek Badaru 31, about 12 years ago. While she was undergoing apprenticeship as a trader, her suitor was equally learning bricklaying. They courted briefly and got married shortly afterwards. The marriage which was blessed with five children was described by family members and acquaintances as a blissful union until Mrs Titilayo acquired a GSM handset. Consequently, strange telephone numbers especially, those belonging to male friends, started featuring in her phone book. Amorous text messages, illicit and late night conversations became a recurring decimal. These drew the ire of her husband who was reported to have confronted her on several occasions. But she was reported to have denied the allegations; accusing her husband of unwarranted jealousy. However, her alleged secret affairs got to a head last week Sunday, April 3, 2011, after her husband returned from a social outing, pretended to be drunk and staggered out to get some food items for the kids. Unknown to Titi who is also called Saida, her man was only feigning drunk and had actually sat behind their window when her handset rang to determine who the caller was. And true to his suspicion, his wife was conversing and fixing appointment with a male friend, ostensibly her surrogate husband. Apparently unable to control his emotions, Mr. Badaru stormed their one bedroom apartment and demanded to know who his wife had been conversing with. He was perhaps, too angry to listen to her wife’s defence as he dealt her several blows; sending her gasping for air. She was said to have struggled and forced her way to a neighbour’s room where she collapsed and died moments after. In the mean time, satisfied with the beating, Mr. Badaru retired to a nearby drinking joint to have some beer only to be called later that his wife was dying. Before he rushed to the room, his lifetime lover was already stone dead!
