  This is just not right, please if you know your marriage is toxic, please find a way out of it before it takes your life, please.

The High Court in Maitama has sentenced Maryam Sanda, a mother of two, to death by hanging for killing her husband Bilyaminu Bello in their Abuja home on November 19th, 2017.

Justice Yusuf Haliru, sentenced her to death by hanging on Monday, after she was found guilty.
She kept pleading not guilty, claiming that she didn't kill her husband, that he fell on broken bottles during the fight they had over the female nude picture she saw in his phone, but evidence gathered was that Bilyaminu Bello was stabbed with the intention to kill.

She tried to escape through the exit door near the dock but was held by security agents.

The convict who was wailing uncontrollably was being held by Officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service who were waiting for the judge to endorse her remand warrant before they took her to prison
