A couple was forced to spend the night in a maize store following a case of “self- arson”. The man had opted five years ago to live in a different hut from his wife who had given him five children as a birth control method.
Over the festive season, the couple decided to make merry with
close friends in the village. As expected, the party raised her hormonal
hyperactivity and neighbors could hear her drunkenly beseeching her
husband to let her into his hut for a good time after five long years of
‘starvation’.
Despite the appeal, the man forced her out of his house saying he
could not stand the sight of a crying baby. In an attempt to blackmail
him into her bed, the wife torched his hut just managing to secure a few
of his belongings.
The man angered by his wife’s actions decided to strike back
and in return torched her hut leaving them both homeless. The chief
said this as a situation of intentional destruction of assets and vowed
to take action against the couple.
The children were taken in by close relatives.
