In the Abule-Egba neighborhood of Lagos State, a housewife named Motunrayo is accused of killing her husband, Alaba, alias Bama.

According to reports, the couple had an argument at their home that escalated into a fight.

Motunrayo was accused of putting a plugin a pressing iron that she used to burn her husband’s chest.

According to reports, the guy died as a result of his injuries.

The hotelier and his wife recently returned from a vacation in Dubai with their three children.

Alaba was the owner of the Bama Hotel and Suites in the Abule Egba region until his death on Monday, January 14, 2022.

However, there are two conflicting accounts of what led to the couple’s quarrel.

A man, Kelly Hassino, claimed that Motunrayo discovered that her husband impregnated another woman.

In a post on Facebook, he wrote, “The wife of the owner of the popular Bama hotel and suites in Agbule Egba in Lagos state has killed him last night while sleeping for finding out he impregnated a Lady!

“Bama as he’s fondly called just returned from an expensive vacation in Dubai along with her and their three kids. They have been married for 8 years.

“Worse of all was the manner in which she killed him. She first of all drugged him and when he slept off and lost all his senses, she plugged a pressing iron to the hottest and burnt him on several parts of his body until he died.

“This is callous a disturbingly painful, a cold and calculated murder. Dear wives, stop killing your husbands over infidelity.”

However, a source revealed that during interrogation, Motunrayo claimed that she had an argument with her husband because he refused to sack a worker.

The source said Motunrayo revealed that during a fight that ensued, she used a hot iron to burn Alaba’s chest.

The source added, “After the attack on Sunday, she said her husband and her junior brother left the house to relax at a bar before returning home later in the day. When he returned, she said they gisted and went to sleep.

“She said she advised her husband to apply something on his chest, but he said she should not worry because it was a small thing and it would heal.

“She later said that they were having fun the following day when her husband suddenly started gasping for breath. They wore clothes and rushed him to a hospital where he died on that same day. She never said she drugged her husband.

“We also heard the story of her husband impregnating someone and it led to a quarrel between them. But the investigation is still ongoing.”

The state Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Adekunle Ajisebutu, confirmed the incident, adding that Motunrayo and three other suspects had been arrested in connection with the crime.

He said, “His body has been deposited in the Yaba Mainland Hospital’s morgue for an autopsy. The deceased’s wife and three others have been arrested in connection with the suspected murder case.”

The body of former President Muhammadu Buhari has reached Katsina State for his official burial ceremony.

Contrary to the initially scheduled arrival time, the former president’s remains landed at exactly 1:59 pm, shortly after President Bola Tinubu arrived.

The aircraft carrying Buhari’s remains landed at the Umaru Musa Yar’Adua International Airport, where President Tinubu was expected to receive it before it would be transported to Daura for the burial.

Members of Buhari’s family also arrived at the airport, including the visibly emotional former First Lady, Aisha Buhari, who was seen among the crowd.

Aisha Buhari and her children, all dressed in black, were accompanied by Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu.

Contrary to earlier reports suggesting the body would be flown in as cargo, Buhari’s remains arrived aboard the presidential jet, which also carried his family and a delegation led by Vice President Kashim Shettima.

Amaechi Wears Turban To Buhari’s Burial In Daura

Rotimi Amaechi, who previously served as the minister of transportation, attended the funeral of former President Muhammadu Buhari in Daura, Katsina state, wearing a turban.

Buhari, the former president and head of state, passed away on July 13. His burial took place in his hometown, Daura, amidst national mourning.

Amaechi wore the cultural headgear to the ceremony held in honour of the late leader.

Earlier on Tuesday morning, Buhari’s remains were transported from London to Nigeria aboard the presidential jet.

Why Is Amaechi Wearing A Turban?

Amaechi received the title of Dan Amanar of Daura — which translates to “trusted son of Daura” — on February 5, 2022, as an acknowledgment of his contributions to the transport sector.

At that time, Silas Zwingina, a former deputy majority leader in the Senate, dismissed suggestions that the turbaning had political undertones, instead calling it a cultural show of gratitude by the Daura Emirate.

Zwingina stated that the Daura Emirate traditionally honours those who have made significant contributions to the development of the area.

He said it was unrelated to politics and urged people not to attach unnecessary meanings to the gesture, noting that Amaechi’s completed projects in Daura and across Nigeria stood on their own.

Amaechi’s turban has previously stirred controversy. In 2022, Musa Saidu, a leader of Arewa in the south, asked him to refrain from using the turban during political campaigns.

Saidu said the turban carries strong Islamic significance and should not be used as a political symbol.

What Buhari Told Me About President Tinubu After Fuel Subsidy Removal — Katsina Governor Radda

Governor Dikko Radda of Katsina State shared details of his conversations with the late former President Muhammadu Buhari following his retirement, including a discussion on President Bola Tinubu’s decision to remove petrol subsidy at the start of his administration.

While addressing reporters at the late president’s burial in Daura, Radda recounted his interactions with Buhari after he left office in 2023. He described gaining insights from Buhari’s leadership and patriotic values during this period.

He said that once Buhari returned to Daura after completing his term in 2023, they were able to engage more frequently, which allowed him to benefit from the former president’s wisdom and humor.

Radda mentioned that their conversations often focused on the challenges facing Nigerians and national service.

He shared that Buhari once told him, Your Excellency, go and do your best and be honest as a leader. You cannot satisfy Nigerians; only God can do that. He added that Buhari often spoke about the burdens he faced in office but felt relieved after retirement.

According to Radda, Buhari also said, I pity Bola (President Tinubu) for what he is doing. He is a brave man for removing the fuel subsidy. When I was president, whenever I made an attempt to remove the subsidy, a lot of people would give me too many reasons not to do so. But Bola did it immediately. If he had consulted people, he could not have removed the fuel subsidy now.

Radda emphasized that this was one of the conversations with Buhari that will stay with him. He said Buhari’s passing has left a significant void in Katsina State that will be difficult to fill.

President Tinubu ended the petrol subsidy on 29 May 2023, the day he assumed office after Buhari. He said the move was necessary to support economic growth and advance national progress.

He also stated that the Nigerian economy had long been underperforming due to various structural issues that hindered its development.
