Husband kills wife’s lover after catching them on matrimonial bed
Ezekiel Igbokwe (32) found his wife, Juliet Igbokwe (28) and her lover, Victor Olatundun (38) in their home at Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State.
Ezekiel who has been married to his wife (both pictured above) for 12 years, returned from a business trip to meet the Victor in his home. Things got rough then a fight broke out.
“I travelled to Onitsha on July 25. When I came back on July 27, I met a man inside my room and we started fighting. The man was stronger than I was 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. We did not quarrel before I went to Onitsha. She has three children for me….”
Juliet said: “I don’t 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.”.
