Residents of Salamba, a suburb of Tamale got the shock of their lives last week when a used condom was discovered in a delicious ‘AYOYO SOUP’ prepared by a house wife for her husband and his friends.

The shocking episode occurred in one of the respectable homes in the area and set tongues wagging at how such an abomination could occur in such a respected house.

Information gathered by the Daily Democrat indicates that some youth in the area met in the afternoon to relax under a shed and to share the meals prepared by their wives.

According to a source, it was during one of the routine passing of meals like the biblical story of the early Christians that a condom was found in the Ayoyo soup and Tuo Zaafi (TZ) brought by the wife of one of the gentlemen.

The source disclosed that half way through the meal, one of the men pulled out a used condom from the slimy vegetable soup resulting in instant vomiting. Fortunately, however, none of the gentlemen needed hospitalization.

They however accused their colleague of conspiring with his wife to poison them.

In the midst of the embarrassment and accusations from his colleagues, the husband of the woman sneaked home to demand explanation from his wife over the incident.

The man, not convinced with her explanation pounced on his wife and beat her severely while accusing her of trying to bewitch him.

The incident attracted a large crowd to the house who fortunately averted possible lynching from some angry co-tenants.

Meanwhile the husband has warned the erring wife not to come back to his house until she is able to offer tangible explanation.

When the Daily Democrat contacted the husband, he refused to comment but stressed that the wife would not return home until further notice.
