A 33-year-old woman, Rofiat Okewola, was allegedly killled by her husband in Ogun State after she confronted him for sleeping around with another woman.
Information gathered indicates that trouble started when the deceased, a tailor, caught her husband making love to a woman in an apartment in the Owode area of Sango-Ota, Ogun State on August 6, 2023.
Rofiat was said to have dashed out of her shop on Bosun Adeyemi Street in the Adalemo area of Lagos State and rushed home to confront her husband and the strange woman but the mother of two didn’t come out alive.
Findings further revealed that when Rofiat confronted her husband and his lover who bolted immediately, her husband dragged her outside the love nest and smashed her head against the wall at the back of the building in a fit of fury.
The embattled husband, who works as a mechanic in the Abule Egba area of Lagos State was swathed by an angry mob who intercepted him as he attempted to flee.
He was subsequently taken away by men of the Sango-Ota Divisional Headquarters led by the Divisional Police Officer (DPO).
One of the friends of the deceased, Biola aka Dasol said: ‘’Rofiat was the chief whip of the tailors association in this community. She was also in charge of the preparation for a party that was to be held by the association. I was to accompany her to the market to purchase some items needed for the party last week.
“I spoke with her on the phone on the day of the incident around 12 noon. Surprisingly, I was at a party when the chairperson of the tailors association at Adalemo broke the news of her death to me on the phone.
