A woman in Lagos has been arrested and arraigned after reports that she stabbed her husband to death.

38-year-old Janet Fagbadebo is said to have killed her husband, Kehinde after an argument over money and infidelity.

The incident occurred in Igbogbo in the Ikorodu area of the state where Janet attempted to stop her husband from going out because she believed he planned to attend a rendezvous with a lover.

The victim also failed to give the suspect money for the upkeep of the house leading to an argument between the duo. Kehinde slapped his wife and in a fit of rage, she got a knife and stabbed him.

Punch reports:

Our correspondent gathered that the union was barely two years old when the duo began having disagreement over marital unfaithfulness.

On the fateful day, 43-year-old Kehinde was said to have told his wife that he would be going out for a party, without giving money for the upkeep of the house.

Janet, who allegedly suspected he was going out with a concubine, demanded money and tried to stop him from going out. This resulted in an argument, while Janet was said to have forcefully dipped her hand into the deceased’s pocket.

The deceased allegedly slapped her and in a fit of anger. The Kogi State indigene reportedly dashed into the kitchen and reached for a knife which she used in stabbing her husband.

While Kehinde bled from his wound, Janeth alerted neighbours who rushed him to a hospital in the area. He was confirmed dead at the hospital. Janet was then arrested and arraigned before an Ebute Meta Magistrate’s court on one count of murder.
