Tragedy struck, weekend, at the sleepy rural Umuagbadagwo, Ikwuano Obodoukwu,
Ideato North Local Government Area, following the reported killing of Mrs
Emilia Ebedo by her husband over alleged infidelity and extravagance on the
part of the man.
It was not clear at press
time what the husband, 50, allegedly used on the woman, but Vanguard was
told that the businesswoman bled profusely and was eventually pronounced dead
in a hospital in the area.
Vanguard overheard some
sympathizers saying the six-year-old marriage between the deceased and her
husband never knew peace.
The sympathizers claimed
that following alleged sexual escapades of her husband, Emilia denied her
husband sex over fears of contracting sexually-transmitted diseases.
A woman, who sought
anonymity, confirmed that the deceased decided to starve her husband of sex
until he submitted himself for a thorough medical check.
Another reason proffered
by the women was that the deceased was cautious about giving money to her
husband, who she allegedly accused of being very extravagant.
It was also gathered that
the position of the deceased on the two issues did not go down well with her
husband.
Although the Police
Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Mr. Andrew Enwerem, could not be reached before
press time, a policeman in Ideato North Divisional Police Headquarters,
however, confirmed that the suspect was cooling his heels in their custody.
He said: “The suspect is
cooling his heels in our custody. Police have commenced investigation into the
incident and if the man is found culpable, he would be made to face the full
weight of the law.”
