14year-old child-bride charged with killing husband, 3 others in Kano

Wasila Tasi’u, the 14 year old bride who killed her 35 year husband Umar Sani, and three others in Kademi village in Gaya Local Government Area in Kano has been charged with murder.

She was charged today April 14th before a Rijiyar Zaki Magistrates Court in Kano for alleged culpable homicide.

The prosecutor, Inspector Yusuf Sale, while testifying before the Magistrate, Binta Muhammad, said the accused killed her husband and three others with food mixed with local rat poison. Sale said her husband and the three others died on the spot while six others who ate the meal fell ill immediately and were rushed to General Hospital Gaya, but were later treated and discharged.

The girl however pleaded not guilty and was remanded in prison on the order of Magistrate Binta.

She is 14, she was trapped ! And she is being charged to court ? The law is warped in Nigeria.... Northern Nigerian folks have to sit up and carve out their path to success in life if they want to succeed.... Well I see Boko Haram as part of their successes

I pity the girl coz this guys will apply strict sharia law on her! Under age marriage is a norm there and she'll face strict penalty regardless of her age

Killing people is in their blood. I have no pity for her after today's bomb blast. Why will she cook with rat poison to start with? She knew what she was doing that's why she didn't eat the food she cooked. Evil thing. I hope she is left to rot in prison.

The poor soul was pushed to the wall. How can they marry her to an old man like. He was also beating her for refusing him sex. I will do the same if I was in her shoes.

I hope they don't sentence this girl to death, cos at 14 she really does not know wrong from right. What she did was reactionary not on purpose. Help her!

let her not be charged for murder; is he not a minor; she should be sent to juvenile facilities and Kano state govt to evaluate their girl child education policy.

Nigeria is pathetic. This is the only country I know where a girl is ILLEGALLY married off but noone seems to bother with that. How dare your judicial system charge her with this offense? This poor girl needs protection....

The Govt should put a law banning under-18 marriage and forget religious backward considerations.


There should also be a law on free quality education for pry and sec sch level. It will be a crime not to take your child to school.


I feel sorry for the girl, but i also feel sorry for the dead. lets be fair


If she was over 18, then this will be life imprisonment or she would be hanged.


There should be no justification for cold blooded murder. That is why the law should be stronger than religion

Dis hausa pple will cont to remain illiterates and backward. How can u force a 14yr old into marriage and expect her not to act like a 14yr old? In her childish mind she felt dat was d only way out of her misery (marriage)!

Women are their own worst enemies. How will you remand a 14yr old in prison. Guess the judge thinks if the girl can be screwed by a shameless man then she can be termed an adult. We are really sick in Nigeria.

Dear Mrs (or Ms) Magistrate Binta,pls I dnt know what law or constitution you based your judgement on. Except this blog isn't providing the authentic info,otherwise,why would you MA remand a 14yr old girl (who has been violated and abused,in case u don't know ma) in a prison. I also stand to be corrected that maybe this blog site isn't giving a true account,otherwise,again,please she needs (and countless other young girls out there) to be in a juvenile correction centre BECAUSE she is a minor; as guaranteed by our constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria. Yes she committed a crime under the laws of the land,but the same law states that she CAN'T be remanded in a prison custody courtesy of her age! Ma,I don't intend teaching you your job,with all due respect,but please can you rescind your decision and transfer her to a juvenile correction home for minors! God bless Nigeria,God bless you ma.

From one phase of child abuse to another. This is so so pathetic. What are these human right activist doing? Now is the time to fight. This girl deserves to be in school and not a man's house.

Unfortunately the state it happened,the useless kano state govt never domesticated the child right act, buh we shld be happy it is not sharia court,else they would ve killed her and they wll rape that girl in prison... just so sad,what if we all use her pics on our dp and go against this madness on social media network... let's stop asking useless magistrate Binta to let her go....
