“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.
