Police Launch Manhunt For  Ondo Woman Who Killed Husband With Pestle While Sleeping

The police have launched a manhunt for a middle-aged woman, Mrs. Tayelolu Solomon, whose whereabouts had become unknown after she had allegedly killed her husband, Mr. Felix Solomon.

The incident was recorded in the GRA area of Ondo town and Mrs. Tayelolu Solomon had reportedly struck while the husband was sleeping.

67-year-old Mr. Felix Solomon was killed with a pestle.

Felix Solomon’s son , Ibukun, who witnessed the incident, confirmed that his mother allegedly used a pestle to kill his father while he was sleeping and ran away, adding that the couple had a misunderstanding some hours earlier.

 ‘My mother killed my father with a pestle in my presence and took to her heels. She used the pestle to hit him in the head while he was asleep.

Earlier on the fateful day, a minor argument had ensued between them that resulted in a fight. After the fight, my father went to lie on the chair and my mother hit his head with the pestle.

He became unconscious in the process and fell down . My mother used the pestle to hit my father’s head three times and he later died. When my mother saw that my father was already unconscious, she hid the pestle at the back of our house and ran away.

I alerted some of the residents, who rushed my father to the hospital. But he later died. His corpse has been deposited at the morgue. My mother has three children for my father and I’m the last born’ he said.

Spokesperson for the police in Ondo state, Mrs. Funmilayo Odunlami, who confirmed the incident, added that  the state police command would soon arrest the  fleeing suspect.

‘The incident happened last week when the couple had a fight, but the suspect is currently at large. We are already on her trail’ Funmilayo submitted-Team@orientactualmags.com
