Lady apprehended in Ogun State after her husband’s corpse was found in their bathroom three days after his death
A man was early this morning found dead in his toilet in Ijoko area of Ogun State by his neighbours.
Residents of the compound said they had been contending with a foul smell emanating from the apartment where the man, identified as Nnanna, lived with his wife.
They also said they were particularly alarmed because they had not seen the man outside for about a week.
The landlord of the compound said he and some other residents approached the wife this morning, May 29, and asked for the whereabouts of her husband.
The woman who appears to be mentally unstable said he was fine and slammed the door on them. The landlord said they insisted that the man might have died since the foul smell persisted and flies began to perch around the windows of their apartment.
According to the landlord, they immediately alerted the vigilante members of the community who came and forced the door of the couple’s apartment open where they found the man lying lifeless in the toilet. His wife was sleeping in the house with the corpse of her late husband.
Attempts to question the wife on what happened to her husband failed as she sounded incoherent and was looking exhausted.
A video of the incident showed the woman lying on the floor as she was being questioned. Her answers were not intelligible.
The voice of a woman can be heard in the video saying that they would give the deceased’s wife food so that she could have the strength to explain what happened to her husband.
