“He starts making trouble, and the men try to stop him, but he would not listen,” Hauwa recounts, her voice trembling with the weight of the trauma. “Before I knew what was happening, he takes a cutlass and starts cutting the pawpaw tree I planted in the compound.”
However, the unthinkable happens when her husband, Police Inspector Ibrahim Shagari, turns the cutlass towards her. “Next, I hear neighbors shouting, ‘He has cut her hand, he has cut her hand.’ I see blood, and my daughter is crying,” she says, reliving the harrowing moment.

The state’s Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Caroline Dafur, and the Chairperson of the Gender and Equal Opportunities Commission, Olivia Dazyam, visit the victim and vow to ensure justice is served.
