A middle-aged man, David Olori, has been arrested by police operatives in Delta State for killing his 42-year-old wife, Oghogho Olori, in Ozoro.
Spokesperson of the command, DSP Bright Edafe, confirmed the arrest in a statement on Friday, November 11, 2022. According to him, police acted on a distress call from the younger brother of the victim who found her dead in their apartment.
The victim's brother had visited because he had not heard from her for some time but discovered that the door to the apartment was locked and an offensive odor was emanating from the place. Police detectives broke into the apartment and discovered that the victim had been m¥rdered and the husband was nowhere to be found.
Bright noted that on November 3, the husband of the victim reported himself at the Police station and confessed to the crime stating that he m¥rdered her over a disagreement. Meanwhile, a family member of the deceased in a chat with Vanguard News said that the couple had been married for over 15 years and have three daughters ranging from 13 to 8 years.
According to the source, the deceased was a secondary school teacher with the state government. It is reported that the couple were residing at Ellu in the house built by the deceased but relocated with the kids to Owheologbo to stay with her mother due to the flood.
“She had a disagreement with her husband before he travelled to Bayelsa. David returned to meet her at Owheologbo on Saturday, the mother-in-law entertained him, before he and Oghogho returned to Ellu that Saturday. Throughout Sunday to Wednesday, Oghogho’s number wasn’t going, only David's number was ringing but he wasn’t picking. So, on Wednesday, our family members went to Ellu to check what was wrong.
On getting there the door was under lock and key. After several calls to David without picking they decided to look through the window’s net, they tore the net and saw Oghogho on the bed laying motionless. This prompted our family members to break the door only to find Oghogho dead with matchete c¥t on her neck.”
