Seventeen-year-old  Maryam Yahaya has told the police that she killed 
her husband because he usually subjected her to “excessive” sex after 
she was forced to marry him last year.
Maryam was alleged to have 
killed her husband, 26-year old Lawal Bala, a butcher from Gangare in 
Jos North Local Government of the State.
She told PUNCH Metro at ‘A’ Division of the state police command that 
for the past one year that she married her husband, he turned her into a
 sex machine by making love to her at least six times a day.
Maryam said, “On each occasion, he would go as far as six rounds after 
taking drug enhancement. The thought of running away was out of the 
question because my patents will send me back to him. There was no other
 way out for me until the devil got into me.”
Maryam pleaded to be set free, saying she had repented. She added that 
she needed to go home to take care of herself as she was two months 
pregnant.
The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Chris Olakpe, told PUNCH Metro that justice would be done.
He
 said, “On July10, about 4.30pm, a distress call came from Gangere that 
Lawal Bala was murdered in his house by unknown persons.
“In the course of police investigation,  one knife stained with blood, a
 bed sheet with blood stain and some cooked noodles were recovered at 
the scene of the incident.
“Maryam became the prime suspect and was 
arrested. She later confessed to the crime. The course of justice will 
be followed in the case.”
