Graphic photos: Jealous husband stabs wife for allegedly sleeping with sales rep

A 37-year-old man, Victor Ojiaku, allegedly stabbed his wife, a student, with a broken bottle in her private part because he suspected her of having a sexual relationship with his sales representative.

                                                  
Ojiaku sells automobile parts and resides at 22, Arike John Close, White Sand, Isheri-Osun in Lagos State.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the case has been taken up by the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team.


The Coordinator of DSVRT, Mrs. Titilola Vivour-Adeniyi, narrated how the victim was kept indoors and punished severely by her husband.

“The victim, Mrs. Faith Ojiaku, 27, a student, was held hostage by her husband for two
days, depriving her of calling any family member for help or receiving medical attention.
“She was subsequently rushed to the hospital for treatment after which she collapsed. She then pleaded with the doctor to make use of his phone to call her sister.
“It was her sister that informed DSVRT which advised her to report the case at the Police station on behalf of her wounded sister.
“He also injured the sales representative with a broken bottle and some dangerous weapons.
“We had an official meeting with the DPO who told us that the suspect was arrested on December 27 and he has promised to ensure that justice would be done in the case,” Vivour-Adeniyi told NAN.
                                             
The suspected assailant, a father of three, is facing a six-count charge bordering on grievous bodily harm, threat to life and assault. He has been granted bail in the sum of N250,000 by the Ejigbo Magistrates’ Court.

Magistrate Akeem Fashola, who gave the ruling, also ordered the accused to produce two sureties in like sum.

He said the sureties should be working in reputable organisations and also possess three-year tax clearance as well as the Lagos State resident identity card.

No date has been fixed for the trial of the case.
