The family of late Ronke Shonde (nee Bewaji) has reacted to the allegations levelled against her by her husband, Lekan.
The first and only surviving child of the family, Bolatito Bewaji, told PUNCH Metro on Tuesday that Lekan allegedly killed her sister due to jealousy and insecurity.
She said the problem started when Ronke discovered that her husband had a child outside wedlock, which affected their marriage.
Bolatito said her sister had endured a
long period of domestic abuse, adding that sometime in December 2015,
she almost packed out of his house.
PUNCH Metro had reported how
Lekan, a dockworker in the Apapa area of Lagos State, allegedly killed
Ronke, his wife of eight years, at their home in the Idimu-Egbeda area
last Thursday.
The matter was reported at the Idimu Police Division.
Lekan, who spoke to our correspondent
while in hiding, had claimed that his late wife was unfaithful to him,
adding that he caught her discussing her sexual escapades with a lover
on the telephone.
On Monday, the 51-year-old Abeokuta, Ogun State indigene, submitted himself to the police.
