How I Killed My Husband After 35 Years Of Marriage – Woman

A 51-year-old Glady Napoleon has confessed to killing her husband, Eze Napoleon with a matchet during an argument at their residence in Igwuruta community, Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State.

The mother of six claimed that she killed her husband in self defense after the deceased allegedly attempted to “kill” her with a matchet during an argument but she overpowered him and used the weapon on him.

The suspect gave the explanation while being paraded at the State Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, in Port-Harcourt, on Wednesday.

“He went and brought the knife (matchet) and started dragging me and I was screaming.

“We started dragging the knife and I cut him on his head two times.

“After he fell down, I became very scared and I called my daughter and my brother in-law to come immediately and we rushed him to the hospital but no doctor was around to attend to him. We went back home where he later died,” she confessed.
