Update on Housewife Who Threw Stepdaughters Into Well | See Details

The evil housewife who reportedly murdered her her two step-children by throwing them into a well is asking for forgiveness.

Aisha Isah who lives in in Yelwabassa village, Nasarawa State, allowed evil overshadow her heart and did the unthinkable over a disagreement with her co-wife (read here).

“It was the devil that used me. I took Ramatu, tied her two hands and legs and threw her into the well. In August 2017, I also took Zainab, tied her hands and legs and threw her into the well.

After sometime I raised alarm, I shouted and attracted the attention of neighbours. My husband and the first wife rushed out. They asked what happened and I confessed immediately to them what I did.

According to her each time she sent her co-wife’s children on errand they would refuse, so she decided to teach their mother a lesson by doing what she did.

Sun reported that after she confessed to her husband, he immediately went with a neighbor to report the crime at the Garaku Police Station.

The Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of the State Criminal Investigation Department, Lafia, Mr. Mohammed Akeera said that the suspect would be charged to court soon for the alleged murder.

However, when the enormity of what she did hit home, a sense of remorse has overwhelmed Aisha and she is pleading for forgivness;

“I want the family to forgive me for what I did; I have regretted my mistake and want my husband to forgive me.”

Forgiveness? Well, no matter what sort of forgiveness she wants, she cannot bring back those kids she murdered. Justice must be served. Her mental state also has to be assessed because what she did – killing those two kids one after the other – is an act that only a deranged person can commit.
