Man,Mother Arrested For Killing Wife In Lagos

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested, a 31-year-old man, his mother and sister after his wife was found dead at home with a slit to her neck.
Isaac Ajisegiri was charged for the alleged murder of his wife, Endurance following evidence from the crime scene. His mother, Florence, and sister, Esther were taken into custody as suspects.
Endurance is believed to have been murdered in her home located at 1 Ajani Salawu Street, Shasha, Lagos, on Saturday.
According to reports, the victim’s brother, Caleb Agbobonye, said that the marriage was troubled with complications but that the couple had reconciled recently.
“They have been married for about four years and they had a child together. They also run an education consulting firm not too far from their house.
“Problem started after Isaac was accused of having an affair with one of their employees. They fought over the issue for quite some time. She even moved out of the house but they later reconciled.
“On Saturday, one Stanley, who happens to be Isaac’s friend, came to pick her (Endurance) from the office, saying her husband’s family were waiting for her at the house to resolve a dispute,” he said.
The director, Project Alert on Violence Against Women, Josephine Effah-Chukwumah, reacted to the news after her agency took up the case.
“Marriage is not a do-or-die affair. Anyone who is in an abusive relationship should feel free to walk out. The neighbours and the police also need to be more involved in this battle so that we can prevent deaths or harm to people,” she said.
