    What Began as a joyous wedding celebration in Jahun Local Government Area of Jigawa State turned into a scene of horror when the bride allegedly poisoned the food served at the reception. This shocking incident has left the groom seriously ill and has claimed the life of one guest.

    Guests had gathered to celebrate the union, but the festivities quickly soured when reports emerged that the bride’s actions may have been motivated by a personal vendetta.
