A Suspected drug addict Osondu Nwigwe allegedly killed his city’s wife, Mrs. Regina Nwokpoku, in the Ndufu Achara Community in the Ezza South Local Government Area of Ebonyi State
The surviving husband Donatus Nwokpuku told the Daily Sun reporter who visited the site that his wife was allegedly killed by the same villain the woman helped before the incident.
He added that a posthumous funeral was being held on his premises in honor of a deceased family member on the Monday before the sad Tuesday, July 8, and during the event, Regina, who had looked after the defendant, presented Nwigwe with a special meal in addition to refreshment for the guests.
The woman, who never expected any misfortune in the early hours of the following morning, left her house to pick bush mangoes, unaware that Nwigwe was following her until she was far from her grounds before he struck.
He said the assailant hit the woman over the head with a board until she gave up the ghost in the bush.
The dejected man went on to say that after many hours, unable to find his wife on the premises, which was unusual for her, he became worried and went looking from one mango tree to another, and he was already seeing the victims dead in the pool of blood.
