A 32-year-old man Ezekiel Igbokwe, has been accused of murdering his
wife’s lover after catching both of them in a compromising position in
his house.
The victim, 28-year-old Victor Olatundun, who was said to be secretly
carrying out a romantic affair with Juliet Igbokwe, had been in bed with
her when her husband suddenly returned from a business trip.
An angry Ezekiel flew into a blind rage, picked up a cutlass and
butchered his wife’s lover. The couple who have been married for 12
years, have three children together and lived in Ago-Iwoye, Ogun state.
Here’s what the accused said below:
“I
travelled to Onitsha on July 25. When I came back on the 27th, I met a
man inside my room and we started fighting. The man was stronger than I
and I didn’t know what to do. Then I got a cutlass from my toilet and
cut him in the hand. He died on the way, while policemen were taking him
to the hospital, because their car ran out of fuel. I never suspected
my wife of infidelity before the incident. It is not my intention to
waste a soul like this. It is Satan’s work; if I really know it will be
like this, I would have walked away.
My
aim was to injure him, go to the police station and make a report. PWe
did not quarrel before I went to Onitsha. She has three children for me.
But I got to know my wife had one child before we met.”
Here’s what his wife Juliet said:
“I
did not know what came over me to have allowed my lover access to my
matrimonial home. When my husband and I quarrel, he would leave us and
travel for months. I have known Olatundun for 6 months. My husband is
not taking care of me. He always leaves me and the children to suffer at
home.”
Hmmm…Na wa ooo!
