It was a sad weekend in Ndubia Inyimaegu community in Izzi
Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, following reports of the death of one
Jacinta, who was allegedly beaten to death by her husband, James Uguru, over
adultery.
Confirming the incident, Police Public Relations Officer of
the state command, ASP George Okafor, revealed that the suspect had angrily
beaten his wife to stupor when the deceased stopped him from chasing after her
alleged lover boy.
The Lagos-based Uguru was said to have become suspicious of
the wife’s alleged promiscuity following rumours making the rounds on the matter in the community
whenever he visits home to see his family.
… and the phone rang
It was learned that trouble started when the couple was
discussing in the sitting room and suddenly a phone started ringing in their
bedroom. As the husband made to go for the phone, his wife held his waist,
preventing him from moving.
Vanguard gathered that as he was being prevented from
entering the bedroom, the wife’s alleged lover ran out from their bedroom. His
wife’s insistence that he should not chase after the man made him vent his
anger on her.
According the police spokesman, the suspect has been arrested as efforts were on to arrest the said lover boy.
