After the tragic death of Lieutenant Samson Haruna, a Nigerian Army officer allegedly set ablaze by his wife during a domestic dispute in Akwa Ibom, a woman commented, “What did he do to push her into this extreme anger?” — suggesting his actions might have triggered her violence. Though some women quickly countered, saying no reason could justify such cruelty and that it’s better to walk away, the initial comment reflects a troubling mindset. It attempts to rationalize violence instead of condemning it outright. No amount of anger or provocation should lead to taking a life. Walking away is always the better choice.
