The
police in Benin has confirmed the real identity of a middle-aged man,
Henry Odion, who allegedly murdered his wife, Patience, in the
presence of their six-month-old child in Benin.
According
to Edo police command's image maker, DSP Abiodun Osifo, the murder
suspect who is presently at large, is a pastor of the Mountain of
Victory and Fire Deliverance Ministry, Benin. We reliably gathered
that Pastor Odion allegedly murdered his wife who had been married to
him since September, 2014, with a knife in Okpara quarters, a suburb
of Benin metropolis.
It
was further discovered that the pastor and his late wife had been
having series of disagreements with each other, a situation which
allegedly led to separation for two months.
Further
investigations revealed that the pastor used his sister to lure his
estranged wife back to the house for settlement and on arrival,
stabbed her severally with a knife, following which he went into
hiding when he discovered that his wife died on the spot.
Father
of the deceased woman, a police officer serving with Lagos police
command, has appealed to relevant authorities to fish out the
culprit. Meanwhile, the police in Benin have launched a manhunt for
the fleeing pastor. Osifo, who described the action as
barbaric, assured that the police will do everything possible to
arrest the culprit.
