Residents in Ajegunle heard screaming coming from a house where a domestic dispute was taking place and rushed to assist but met a gory sight where a woman allegedly killed her lover, 38-year-old Kingsley Pereowei she had been dating for 13 years.
The trader, identified as Mary, reportedly slit Kingsley’s throat while he was fast asleep and left him in a pool of blood before fleeing the scene of crime. Residents in the area say the incident happened after Mary accused Kingsley of being unfaithful and having an affair with another woman.
Kingsley’s Elder sister Linda Pereowei spoke:
“By the time I got there, my brother was dead. This is the 13th year that they have been dating each other. She cast a spell on my brother so that he would not be able to quit the relationship. No single child between them and they were not married.
“Sometime last year, she stabbed him in the head and eye. It took months before the wounds healed. She has achieved her aim. We are from Bayelsa State. Our father is late, but we still have an ageing mother. She has not been informed about his death. I want the police to ensure that she joins my brother in heaven. That is all I want.”
A resident, who gave his name as Alade, said the police from the Ajeromi division visited the scene and later arrested Mary.
