01:54Witnesses said Saudid lured her husband into a fatal trap by asking him to close his eyes for a surprise, before slitting his throat with a knife.
02:03A neighbor and eyewitness, Dini Madda, told Wicker Times that Solisu managed to identify his wife as the attacker before succumbing to his injuries later in the hospital.
02:14I asked him who did this to you, he said,
02:17Dini, it's my wife who stabbed my neck with a knife in the parlor.
