Odo, a car washer, said he returned home from work at about 6:30 p.m. and met sympathisers around his one-room apartment.

“I left home for work that morning after taking my breakfast; she had asked that I buy a tuber of yam for dinner when I return.

“When I returned, I saw people gathered around my apartment only to be told that my wife had committed suicide,” he said.

Her husband said he had no misunderstanding with the deceased that could have led her to take her life.
