A 56-year-old man, Mr. Christopher Chiabata, on Tuesday confessed to Police in Bayelsa State that he killed his 41-year-old wife in self-defence during a fight over money in their home at Onuebum Community in Ogbia Local Government Area.
According to the police report, Chiabata struck his wife with a pestle during the fight and after realizing that he has committed murder, he took Sniper to commit suicide before neighbours resuscitated and handed him over to Police.
Speaking to newsmen while being paraded by the police, Chiabata further explained that he has been married to his wife for 30 years with five children but they have been fighting frequently because she had the habit of denying him access to monies they jointly generated from their farming business.
