According to reports that surfaced online, the woman had a disagreement with her husband who allegedly seized the N15,000 share of dividend paid to the family as host community to multinational companies.
She said the husband refused to pay her what was due to her and two children out of the money.
In anger, the woman who is a mother of two girls, poured acid on the face of her husband and confiscated his Automated Tell Machine (ATM) and attempted to escape.
It was further learnt that after pouring acid on the face of her husband she fled with the husband’s ATM Card. Her husband was in pain and could barely see.
He raised the alarm which attracted the Community Vigilante. Sensing she was being pursued, she ran back into her house and hid in the ceiling. She was brought down and bound.
At the time of filing this report, she had been handed over to the Eleme Police Station in Eleme Local Government Area for further investigations, while the husband had been rushed to an undisclosed hospital for urgent medical attention.
