More Details of What Led to the Murder of Ex-PDP Chairman's Son by His Wife Have Been Revealed

 

Details have emerged as to what led to the shocking murder of ex-PDP chairman’s son, Bilyamin Bello, who was reportedly stabbed to death by his wife Maryam Sanda. 

 

Apart from allegations of cheating which Sanda, daughter of embattled former Aso Savings Bank boss, Hajia Maimuna Aliyu accused her husband before killing him, it has been revealed that Bello was planning to divorce his wife.

 

Sanda had launched an attack on her husband over a text message on his phone. She allegedly stabbed her husband in the neck and chest while he slept in the bedroom of their home in Maitama, Abuja, and rushed him to hospital where he gave up the ghost. Before the incident, Sanda had bitten off part of Bello's ear who treated it in a hospital during another encounter.

 

It was gathered that Bello, a real estate developer and businessman had complained several times about his wife’s violent tendency to some family members and friends, and was reportedly advised to leave the house for some time but he refused. He was reportedly planning to divorce his wife before he was allegedly murdered.

 

 

“Maryam had attacked Bilyamin before the latest incident, which unfortunately led to his death. The two got married about two years ago when the former PDP chairman persuaded his son to marry Maryam. Everyone was shocked by Bilyamin’s death; it was sudden, unexpected and tragic,” a source said.

 

While the deceased have been buried, the case had been taken from the Maitama Divisional Police Station by the state command, as the Federal Capital Territory Police Command spokesman, Anjuguri Manzah, confirmed the arrest of a female suspect, adding that investigation had commenced into the homicide.
