A pregnant mother of eight children, identified simply as Dada, has been arrested for stabbing her husband, Jonathan, to death in the Otomi community, Uwheru, in the Ughelli Local Government Area of the Delta State.

It was gathered that the suspect returned late from work on Monday, April 5, 2021, when an argument ensued between her and her husband.
