The police in Enugu State have arrested one Mrs. Grace Agbo for allegedly killing her husband, a situation that has thrown the entire people of Isi-Uzo Local Government Area into shock, according to Daily DailyPost.
Residents say they are terrified over the development as the motive behind the murder had remained unknown.
The police spokesman in Enugu State, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu, who confirmed the incident, said the deceased, Elijah Agbo, hails from Imirike Agu village in Udenu Local Government Area of Enugu State but resides in Isiuzo.
According to him, the deceased was relaxing in the living room of his house with his wife, Grace, and daughter, Deborah, at night on the fateful day, March 5, 2015, without knowing that his end was near.
According to reports, around 9pm, the housewife, Grace, asked the daughter, Deborah, to go to bed.
Not sensing any danger, Deborah, a 12-year-old girl, obeyed her mother and went to bed, leaving her parents alone in the living room.
But shortly after she retired to bed, Deborah heard a loud, sharp cry from her father, Elijah.
The cry was accompanied by a thud and Deborah rushed to the living room, where she saw her father on the floor, with blood gushing from a fresh, open wound on his head, which had been smashed in.
She discovered that her mother had used a heavy stick to smash her father’s head immediately she stepped out of the living room.
Amaraizu, who confirmed that Elijah died on the spot, said the housewife had been arrested.
He added that the police were yet to determine why Grace murdered her husband in cold blood.
This is the hand work of the devil, how on earth can you explain this.
