A
35-year-old man, Emmanuel Awugye, has reportedly committed suicide by hanging
after allegedly killing his 32-year-old wife, Ama Baduwaa.
The
incident took place at Awugyekrom near Adansi Fumso in the Ashanti region of
Ghana on Monday morning.
Emmanuel’s
uncle, Ibrahim Abu, who disclosed the incident to Adomonline, said
the body of Emmanuel Awugye was found hanging on a tree in a different
location.
According
to Mr. Abu, Emmanuel inflicted wounds on his wife for failing to prepare his
favourite meal, fufu.
Reports
say the man was infuriated when he arrived home to find his wife sleeping
instead of preparing the meal.
The
issue, which did not go down well with the man, caused him to subject his wife
to severe beating, inflicting cutlass wounds on her till she fell down dead. Sources
say the man also accused his wife of infidelity.
The
Adansi Fomena District Police commander, Yaw Asubonteg, confirming the matter
said the bodies of the couple have been deposited at the New Edubuasi
Government Hospital.
He
said that police have since commenced investigations into the incident.
The
couple left behind four children.
