It was gathered that the third wife reported to their husband on the 16th of July, that their senior wife took big part of fish from the soup to break her fast.
However, on the day she was to be attacked, Mrs. Fatima said the last wife complained to her husband that Fatima took a larger chunk of the fish in the pot.
Their husband, Alhaji Kamoru Bankole, queried her, but she said that she only took a little out of it, stating that the fish was in pieces and mixed in the stew. Her explanations, however, got her in trouble with their husband. Alhaji Kamoru, she details, delivered several punches to her face. She said she bled for hours and was further locked up in a room for three days before she escaped; and neighbours then took her to the hospital for treatment.
It was learned that police have now arrested the husband, following outcry and petitions by the Women Arise civil group in Lagos.
