A woman in Ebonyi State, Chinenye Okoro, has killed her spouse Ifeanyi Okoro by pulling his manhood until he gave up, it has been alleged.
The incident, ABN TV gathered, took place in Akaeze community in the Ivo Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, on Tuesday.
It was gathered that though the deceased and the suspect were lovers, they were always at loggerheads and often threatened each other’s life.
It was learnt that the deceased’s lifeless body was found on the floor in front of his doorpost by a villager, after the suspect allegedly killed him, by pulling his genitals, which led to his instant death.
The Ebonyi State Police Command confirmed the incident on Thursday.
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mrs. Loveth Odah, said, “On 31/03/2020, at about 11 am, one Rose-John ‘f’ in company with one Sunday Ngwoke ‘m’ reported at Ivo Police Division that while she was frying garri in her kitchen, she saw one Chinenye Okoro run across her compound and jumped the fence, which got her attention.
“That she decided to find out what happened in the neighbouring compound, only to see the lifeless body of one Ifeanyi Okoro (aka Nwaogbi), lying on the ground in front of his doorpost.
“Following the report, police detectives quickly mobilised to the scene, rushed the victim to Marthama Hospital, Akaeze, Ivo LGA for medical treatment and he was confirmed dead by a medical practitioner on duty. The body was deposited at Izunna Mortuary Services Ltd, for preservation and autopsy.
