Emafewa, who is standing trial with three others, was alleged to have committed the offence between July 4 and July 5 at Ajowa Street and Glory Farm, Aromoko-Ekiti.
The three others are Tijani Tajudeen (42), Oluwadare Adekunle (42), and Pius Olanrewaju (42).
The Police Prosecutor, Cpl. Bamidele Olasunkanmi, said the suspects conspired to cause the death of the deceased and cut her private part and hands.
"Aside from beheading his wife, Emafewa also led others to cut her private part and her two hands," the prosecutor said.
According to the prosecutor, the offence contravened sections 516 and 319 of the Criminal Code Cap. C16 Laws of Ekiti State of Nigeria, 2012.
Christopher Omokhafe, the counsel for the defence, urged the court to give the case speedy hearing.
The magistrate did not take the accused persons' pleas, but ordered that they be remanded at the Ado-Ekiti Federal Prisons, pending the advice of the Director of Public Prosecutions.
