Ajemine Inedugoba, a 41-year-old mother of four who is also a staff of the Rivers State Primary Health Care, Asari-toru local government has been arrested for killing her 40-year-old husband, Tyger, in Abalama area of Buguma.
Mrs Ajemina confessed and explained how she killed Tyger and buried his body in a shallow grave within the area for abandoning her to go and live with another woman.
She said she contracted two men to kill the victim on January 25, 2019, because he routinely beat and raped her whenever he pressed for sex.
Ajemina had arranged with two persons kill her husband in their Abalama residence by strangling him to death when he was sleeping.
They subsequently buried his corpse in a shallow grave at the back of the house.
She also took his car to a nearby market and parked it where it could be recovered by the police.
Afterwards, she also took his mobile phones and sent text messages to her late husband’s brothers informing them that Tyger was traveling out of the state on a business trip.
After thorough investigation, Ajemine was arrested alongside one of her accomplices, Kingsley Nna, and the duo led the police to the spot where the body of the victim was buried.
In his confession, Kingsley Nnaa said Ajemine paid him and his friend the sum of N100,000 to kill her husband and that he also had sex with her severally.
Nna said: “She told us that her husband was maltreating her. The day after we killed her husband, she called me and said she wanted me to make love to her and when I met her in a hotel we made love for two hours.
One week later, we met again in that same hotel in Egelu Town and we made love again. We also made love for the third time, but I stopped responding to her calls because she wanted to turn me to her husband.”
