Tragedy struck on Iroye Street, Ilesa in
Osun State, when a young man, simply identified as Wale Agbaje beat up
his wife to death over a minor disagreement.
Some residents of the area told Weekly Trust yesterday that the couple frequently engaged in squabbles.
One of the residents alleged that the man smashed a concrete block on his wife’s forehead, which made her collapse and she was rushed to a nearby private hospital by sympathizers.
He said the woman died on arrival at the clinic.
Weekly Trust gathered from the residents that detectives from ‘B’ Police Division Headquarters, Ilesa have arrest the man and is currently assisting the police in their investigation into the matter.
The quick intervention of security operatives, however, saved the suspect from being mobbed by the residents who were angered with the incident, while the woman’s corpse has been deposited at a hospital.
A top police officer who does not want his name on print, said the state command is investigating the cause of the matter, while the suspect would soon be prosecuted.
