Chinese man sentenced to death for killing Nigerian girlfriend

The Kano State High Court has handed down a death sentence by hanging to a Chinese national, Frank Geng-Quangrong, for the murder of his girlfriend, Ummukalthuum Buhari.

Quangrong was convicted of culpable homicide following the death of Buhari during a dispute.

Although Quangrong denied intentionally killing his girlfriend, he pleaded with Justice Sunusi Ado Ma’aji of the Kano State High Court for leniency.

During his testimony on Tuesday, Quangrong asserted that he stabbed his girlfriend in self-defense after she purportedly grabbed his testicles in September 2022.

"I did not intend to kill Ummulkhulsum, but I stabbed her in self-defense after she grabbed my testicles," Ouangrong stated.
