Residents
of Solar Power Drive, Igbo Olomu, in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State are in
shock after a landlord in the community, Omolaja Sodipo, allegedly stabbed his
wife, Titilayo, killing her.
Sympathisers,
friends and family members of the mother of four, trooped to their bungalow on
Monday, where Titilayo laid in a pool of blood.
The
husband was said to have fled the scene.
Community
leaders reportedly alerted policemen from the Owutu division, who removed the
corpse and deposited it in a mortuary.
Although
most of the neighbours refused to comment on the tragedy, Punch gathered
that the couple had been married for over seven years.
The
relationship was said to be fraught with disagreements, which usually resulted
in domestic violence.
A
resident, who did not want to be identified, said the disagreements always
bordered on the welfare of their four children.
The
state Police Public Relations Officer, Olarinde Famous-Cole, said, “We
are still searching for the man. The woman’s corpse has been deposited in
a morgue for autopsy.”
