She stated that they left the cooler which was used to take food to the party, at their door step, with the intention to wash them next day. According to her, ”barely had we settled down than we heard bangs on the door. When my husband opened the door, he found our landlady and her two children, Awwal and Zainab.

“The landlady asked why we put our property at our doorstep, that every part of the compound belongs to her. While my husband tried to reply, her son, Awwal, hit him on his head. As he turned to face Awwal, the landlady used a charm to hit my husband on his chest. He (husband) started jerking and after some minutes, he fell and died.”
