A 17-year-old girl identified as Malama Hauwa Mohammed, has lost two of her limbs after she was brutally attacked by her spouse at their house in Kebbi state.
According to Hauwa, she allegedly married her spouse against her will. She claimed that her spouse was always gone from the house for several months. On the day of the assault, however, he came home carrying a machete and struck her without warning.

According to state government officials, the incident has already been officially reported to the police, and as soon as the offender is caught, inquiries will be conducted to determine the cause of his actions, and he will be prosecuted in court.
