Oyediran’s elder brother, Adelani Oyediran, who spoke on behalf of the family, said the deceased was billed to return to France tomorrow in pursuit of his business plans. Adelani, who is the head of the Ajanaku family of Gbongan, raised the fear that the powers that- be had made surreptitious moves to subvert the case.
He, however, warned that justice must be allowed to take its full course in the matter. Owing to domestic feud over alleged infidelity, Yewande, who works at the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Oyo State Ministry of Justice, allegedly attacked her late husband with a pair of scissors around 3a.m. on Tuesday, February 2.
She reportedly stabbed him in the shoulder and back. After Lowo had been treated at a nearby hospital and the landlord of the residence located on Adeniyi Street, Abidi- Odan area of General Gas in Ibadan, had intervened, everybody went to sleep. Around 6.10a.m, Yewande (36) allegedly stabbed her husband with a knife in the neck, leading to his death.
“It was a loud scream of Lowo crying for his landlord’s help that woke everybody up to the dastardly act, we learnt,” Adelani said.
Yewande, a Master of Law degree holder from a South African University and daughter of a Catholic venerable, was later arrested and is currently being detained at Iyaganku, Ibadan.
It was learnt yesterday that the rift that resulted in the unfortunate incident in the three-year-old family was the marital relationship between Lowo and a lady in France, leading to the birth of a baby boy.
