A woman has died after she was allegedly poisoned and her friends are pointing accusing fingers at her husband and his mother.
Yetunde Balogun, reportedly converted from Christianity to Islam so as to marry her husband, a Muslim.
The union produced two daughters.
However, according to Yetunde’s friends, the deceased, who is a graduate of the University of Ilorin, Linguistics Department, suffered domestic violence and complained to close friends and family.
She reportedly left her marriage several times but returned after her husband pleaded with her.
After returning home the last time, she reportedly began complaining to friends that her husband had stopped eating her food.
On Monday, April 11, her husband allegedly returned home with food for her, which he allegedly said was prepared by his mother.
Shortly after eating, Yetunde called a friend to complain of severe stomach pain. She died that same day in the hospital she was rushed to.
Friends allege that Yetunde’s husband told them she consumed a poisonous substance in a bid to take her life, but the friends said Yetunde already made a call before her death to inform a friend when she suspected the food she was given was poisoned.
Friends are asking for an investigation into her death.
Graduates of Unilorin have gone on Facebook to mourn her.
