Wife Accused For causing Her Husband Death by Cheating, which is Forbidden in their Culture

A wife has been accused by her husband's people for the death her husband. This is because having an affair outside her marriage is traditionally forbidden.

In some cultures like Delta. There's such tradition that a man dies when his wife cheats on him with other man, and the husband knowing and not saying anything about it or even spends or eat out of the money the wife's(concubine) gives her could lead to his death.

This is no news in today's tradition, it has been happening right from the on set in some areas in Delta state.

I know most of you're asking, why is it the man that dies and not the woman!

Well, here is a detailed explanation to that.

A woman earns from her cheating. Yes. When a man cheats he's the one who spends, but when a woman cheats she earns.

Now such earning, she takes it home, use it to cook for the family or even lends the husband some out of it. The man knowing fully well that his wife cheats, still went ahead and ate her food which she must have used the money to prepare or even lends him some cash out of the same money she earns from cheating, this act is what leads to the man's death.
