Men of the Ogun State Police Command have arrested Olanrewaju Bamidele, pictured above, for allegedly stabbing his wife, Adenike Olanrewaju, to death with a screwdriver.
A statement released by Abimbola Oyeyemi, spokesperson of the state police command today January 20th, says Bamidele was arrested after his son, Ayomide Olanrewaju, reported that his deceased mother was murdered by his father following a misunderstanding they had.
The son told the police that he watched his father hit his mother with a big stick which caused her to fall into a coma and afterwards, he used a screwdriver to stab her on the head.
The suspect, who is known for battering his wife, was arrested after his children caught him preparing a shallow grave near their home to bury their deceased mum.
Abimbola says the suspect will be charged to court once investigation has been completed.
