In Ekiti State, a tragic incident unfolded as Dare Onipede, a 34-year-old man, is accused of fatally stabbing his wife, Arinola, 32, following allegations of infidelity.

Confirmation of the event came from DSP Sunday Abutu, the Public Relations Officer of the Ekiti State Police Command, who stated that the information was received on Saturday, April 27, through the couple’s children.

The distressing episode occurred over the weekend at Christ Avenue in the Adebayo area of Ado-Ekiti, the state capital.

According to a resident who chose to remain anonymous, the couple had sent their eldest child on an errand before engaging in a heated argument in their apartment over the alleged infidelity.

During the altercation, both individuals, with the husband purportedly a law enforcement agent and his deceased wife employed at a chemist shop, wielded sharp objects, resulting in injuries to both parties.
