Man Stabs Pregnant Girlfriend To Stay Out Of Shame
A 29-year-old man identified as Mustapha Idris has allegedly killed his 20-year-old pregnant girlfriend because he was scared of what people would think when news of her pregnancy out of wedlock spreads.
The Jigawa State Police Command confirmed that Idris is currently in police net for murdering Nafisa Hashimu.
Spokesperson for the police in the state, Audu Jinjiri, said Idris and Hashimu, a divorcee, were live-in lovers at Daneji Village before she became pregnant and informed him in excitement.
Idris however, got angry and stabbed her to death.
Her body was found in a bush on the outskirts of Daneji Village about 22 kilometres from Ringim.
