Blind Man Drags His Fellow Blind Man To Court For Snatching His Wife

A blind man, Shaibu Ibrahim, 26, on Tuesday dragged Shehu Sarki, 32, another blind man who is also his friend and the chairman of the blind peoples’ association to Court for allegedly enticing his wife, Lami Ibrahim, 23.

According to Shaibu:

  “Sometime in June, our chairman, Sarki, helped me to get a woman, Lami, for marriage.

 “After our marriage in July, Sarki later enticed my wife and took her away from my house.

 “I later discovered that my wife is staying in one of his rooms and he has been sleeping with her.”

The offence was said to have contravened Section 389 of the Penal Code, and if convicted, the accused could spend two years in prison.

 The accused, however, pleaded not guilty.
