A
man identified as Endurance Enadeba, has allegedly killed his wife in Benin
during an argument on breastfeeding of their newborn set of twins. The incident
happened in Upper Sakponba area of Benin, as the couple was preparing for the
naming ceremony of their twins.
The
tragedy followed an argument on when the woman identified as Osarumwense should
breastfeed the babies. According to eyewitnesses, the couple celebrated the
birth of the twins last Sunday and was preparing for the naming ceremony when
the tragedy occurred.
The
husband, Endurance Enadeba, was said to have hit the wife on the head with an
object, which resulted in her death. He was said to have requested the wife to
breastfeed the babies who were crying, but the woman reportedly said she wanted
to urinate first.
The
witnesses said the husband went to where the wife was to urinate, and a fracas
ensued,
which led to the man hitting the wife on the head. Father of the
deceased woman, who gave his name as Eghenayayore, was seen weeping, and
cursing profusely over the corpse.
He
explained that his daughter called to inform him about the incident, but that
she died before they rushed her to the hospital, adding that the husband fled
when the wife collapsed. “He killed my daughter because of breastfeeding the
twins. The twins are at home now, who will give them breastmilk? Why did he
kill my young daughter? This girl was born in 1996. We were preparing to name
the babies tomorrow, because it was their first issue,” Eghenayayore said.
When
contacted, Edo Police Command Spokesman, DSP Moses Eguavoen confirmed the
incident and said the husband has been arrested from where he was hiding.
