A 35-year-old housewife, Awele
Nwani, in Ibusa, Oshimili South Local Government Area, LGA of Delta State, has
allegedly bathed her husband, Frank Nwani, with hot water, on claims that he
denied her sex for three weeks.
According to Awele, her husband
had been having extra marital affairs.
The mother of six who is now on
the run had threatened to make life unbearable for her husband, The Punch
reports.
The victim, however, dismissed
his wife’s claim as untrue, saying his wife had been sleeping around.
Nwani said, “My wife has been
sleeping around, hence I stopped sleeping with her for three weeks. It is a
taboo in my tribe and she violates the laws.
“All my attempts to stop her
illicit affairs outside proved abortive, then I took the decision to starve her
of sex.”
The last straw that broke the
camel’s back was when the victim returned from a visit to a friend’s house on
Thursday during nightfall and in his usual jokes, called his wife a lazy woman,
leaving her in wide anger as she fired back to call the husband a wizard.
According to sources, while
their quarrel lasted, the woman disguised to have put the quarrel behind her,
dashed to the kitchen where she allegedly boiled water.
Unknown to the husband who was
relaxing in the sitting room, Awele bathed him with the water and disappeared.
Confirming the incident, police
officers at the Ibusa Police Division, who pleaded anonymity, said they were on
the trail of the suspect while the victim is receiving treatment in an
undisclosed private hospital.
The police also noted that the
woman disappeared with the sum of N200, 000 being daily contribution the
husband received and kept in her custody
