Igbara-Odo in the Ekiti Southwest Local Government Area of Ekiti State was thrown into mourning at the early hours of Monday as an house wife allegedly conspired to kill her husband over extra-marital affairs, Nigerian NewsDirect reports.
It was gathered that the said house wife had got an unsettled matter with her husband who was simply identified as Kayode over a period of time.
The said house wife reportedly eloped with her concubine from Ilawe-Ekiti to Igbara-Odo alongside three children she raised with her husband, Kayode.
Nigerian NewsDirect authoritatively reports that this development led the husband (Kayode) to Igbara-Odo in order to locate the children and bring them to his home.
As a result of this, the matter went out of hand as the said wife and her new man allegedly conspired to attack the man with dangerous weapons which eventually led to his untimely death over an agitation to bring the children home.
Eyewitness accounts revealed that the eloped woman allegedly used the Mobile phone of the deceased man to break the news of the man’s death to his family at Ilawe-Ekiti, as she alleged that the man had an accident which she added caused his untimely death.
Our correspondent who visited the family house of the late Kayode at Okebedo via cow meat shop area of Ilawe-Ekiti reports that sympathizers thronged the area but no one was ready to speak to him, as they were devastated.
When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer in Ekiti State, ASP Sunday Abutu said that he has not been briefed of the incident.
Abutu further stressed that he would get back to our reporter once he gets wind of the matter.
As at the time of filling this report, arrangements have been made by the families of the late Kayode on how to bury his body, Nigerian NewsDirect reports.
