The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reports that Shagari’s husband, a Police Inspector was said to have cut off the victim’s hand following an argument over N20,000 on Wednesday in Jos.
The Police Command in Jos, which confirmed the incident, said the case was at the State CID.
“The Plateau Commissioner for Health and the Medical Director, Plateau Specialist Hospital had helped in ensuring she got the best treatment.

“Her bills are being paid, her children are also well taken care of by the state, we intend keeping her in a safe place when she fully recovers,” the Commissioner said.
She also disclosed that the ministry of Women Affairs and the Plateau State Gender Commission, have begun investigation into the unfortunate incident and will ensure justice is served.

Dafur noted that domestic violence, particularly physical abuse such as the case of Shagari, could have devastating phycological impact on victims.

“We are aware that some victims may experience long-term psychological effects, such as post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and anxiety,” said the commissioner.
