“I never knew she would die,” he said. “It was just a misunderstanding over a mere pap and I did not know that when she fainted she would not wake up. I should never have beaten her. I regret my action.”
Police spokesman Wasiu Abiodun said the suspect admitted beating his wife until she fell into a coma, adding that she was confirmed dead when she was rushed to hospital.
