Jealous Husband Sets Wife on Fire for Accepting Wine From Another Man

What are Nigerian men turning into? Could this be insecurity, jealousy or plain madness?
Love is said to be the fire of life that neither consumes nor purifies; but for 35-year-old Janeth Odehgbe, hers was a different case as she has been set on fire by her husband following disagreement over her collecting a cup of wine from another man during a party they both attended.
Recounting her ordeal in the hand of her 39-year-old husband, Mr Kehinde Adesanmoye, Janeth told Crime Alert that on September 11, 2012 around 10 pm, her husband poured petrol on her as she was preparing Indomie noodles for a customer and fire caught her immediately.   She was nearly consumed by the fire but for passers-by that rescued her.
She said, "I saw him coming towards me, as he got nearer, he ordered my customer to leave and as I tried to run for my dear life, he poured petrol on me and fire caught up with  me immediately. Passers-by rescued me and ran after him to fight him, but immediately they noticed it was him, they all went to their various homes. Then some of them took me to the Police station and from there I was taken to Peaceful Convalescent Center,  Alhaji Obe Street, Ejigbo Lagos."
Trouble was said to have started for the duo on September 8, 2012 when Adesanmoye and his wife went for a naming ceremony of a friend who stays beside their residence at 22, Olaoluwa Street, Abaranje, Ikotun.   "As we got to the party, my friends who were also present were hailing me, calling me 'Indomie', because I was known for selling Indomie. I was invited to sit on the chairs they have organized for friends. Adesanmoye was sitting right beside me.
"After some time, my friend, a vulcanizer, Taye offered me a bottle of wine, but I rejected it at the first instance because I was on my menstrual period and I don't want to take anything alcoholic. But when the pressure from my friends was too much, pestering me to take the wine, I decided to take a cup.
 "Immediately Adesanmoye saw me finish the cup of wine, he got up and started going. I ran after him to ask what went wrong. To my surprise, he started abusing me and asking why do I have to collect a drink from a friend in a party while he was sitting right beside me, and why do I have to kiss a friend in the party too?" Janeth narrated in pains.
 "My husband has always been jealous. He used to beat me every time under any guise and excuse. I have tried several times to leave him but he always threatened to harm me. I stayed with him because I was afraid of him and my life. He always told me that I could never escape from him, except I leave Lagos State. Anytime I said I was leaving him, he would say, no problem, that he would do something to me that I will not forget. Now, see what he had done to me.
He wanted to kill me" she added.
An unconfirmed source intimated Crime Alert that Adesanmoye was later arrested and detained at the Ikotun Police station. His relatives were alleged to have called for amicable settlement, offering the victim a sum of N100, 000 (One hundred thousand), which the victim reportedly rejected.
She however called on the government to ensure that her husband paid for what he did to her, adding "am an orphan. I have no father or mother. I sell Indomie to live. Now, I've spent all my money. In fact, I need help.

Saudi Authority Detained 400 Nigerian Women Pilgrims

The Saudi Authority yesterday detained four hundred female pilgrims from Nigeria who arrived Jeddah, Saudi to participate in this
year's hajj

Sources said the women on arrival in Jeddah were promptly separated from their male counterparts and detained for not been able to pilgrim's muharram, that is, the
approved male companion
accompanying her on the trip, usually a husband, father or brother.

The Saudi authority last
night, threatened to
deport them back to Nigeria on the next available hajj plane.

The nearly 400 women were only allowed to be supplied water and food by the Saudis after strenuous efforts by the
Nigerian Consul in Jeddah and the Minister of State for Foreign
Affairs, Alhaji Nurudeen,
However the Sultan of Sokoto Muhammadu Sa'ad who is the
Amirul Hajj condemned the Saudi action and described it as "an
insult to Nigeria and to this country's millions of muslims."

He the action of Saudi authorities was a surprise because during the numerous meetings held between Nigerian and Saudi officials to prepare for this year's hajj, the issue of
muharram for female pilgrims was never raised.

They issued visas to all these pilgrims, only to embarrass, detain and threaten to deport
them when they arrived in the holy land. How can they do this
to us?

As at yesterday, Max Air alone had already delivered 9,700 pilgrims to Jeddah in 19 flights
from Abuja, Kano, Katsina and Sokoto.
9,700 Muslims from Nigeria alone, if they were to pay for fare, would all be in Saudi?

Adejobi said as the truck driver from Lagos attempted to avoid ramming into the one from Ikorodu, it swerved and crashed into people by the roadside.

He said the driver of one the trucks, Mr Adebayo Adedayo, has been arrested while the  youths in the community, acting on the belief that the police caused the accident, attempted to mob some police officers from the Obalende Division, when they arrive on the  scene.

The police spokesman  said the police had no hand in the  accident.
