Votes are still being counted in Nigeria and the citizens are anxious as to who would become the next president—this reportedly led to a debate between a husband and wife over the weekend.
In arguing about whether Muhammadu Buhari or President Goodluck Jonathan would take the highest political seat in the country, the woman stabbed her husband, killing him.
According to Nigeria’s Vanguard, the incident took place around Ejigbo area of Lagos.
An account says, “the couple were said to have divergent views about the 2015 elections. The wife is said to be an APC supporter, while her husband was a PDP supporter. They got into a heated argument about which of the two candidates would win, and it reportedly escalated into a physical battle, in the course of which Mary allegedly stabbed her husband in the chest with a kitchen knife.”
