trouble started when the wife of the deceased suspected he was having extra marital affairs due to his alleged late night outings.

The tragic incident which threw the rustic Azikoro settlement into mourning occurred last Friday when the deceased reportedly received a phone call which the wife suspected was from one of his lovers.

 The wife’s suspicion and anger over the phone call the source said, might have been fuelled by his alleged absence from home for two days.

The loud cry of the husband for help attracted neighbours who rushed to the scene and took him to the health facility in the community where he was confirmed dead.

 The woman it was learnt turned in herself to the police where she is currently in detention and assisting them in their investigation into the matter.

 The Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Fidelis Odunna (DSP) confirmed the incident saying the woman voluntarily gave up herself to the police.

He said she would be charged to court for murder.
