Woman who presents son to her husband before his death arrested

The suspect, according to a petition to the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, which was dated January 3, 2020, by the deceased’s brother, Charles Nwabufo, brought the baby a few hours before her husband’s death.

The couple, who were natives of Onitsha, Anambra State, was said to have been married for 18 years without a child.

The accused was said to have a few hours after presenting the child to her dying husband, proceeded to the probate registry to register him as the man’s next of kin.

The husband’s family, who knew all along that the couple had no child, became suspicious and called for the woman’s arrest.

In the petition sent to the IG, which necessitated Stella’s arrest and subsequent detention, the petitioner alleged that his brother’s wife, who could not bear a child during their marriage, appeared with the child on her brother’s sickbed a few hours to his death, claiming that he was his son.

The man, who died on October 29, 2019, is still lying in the mortuary.

The police boss, who acted on the petition, directed the Intelligence Response Team Unit, led by the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, to act swiftly.

In recent news, a married woman who has been identified as Felicia Adikwu has gotten tongues wagging after news surfaced that she was impregnated by her children’s lesson teacher who was employed by her husband.

According to reports, Felicia who holds a diploma in Public Administration from the State Polytechnic, and married to Mr. Joseph Adikwu, has been married for nine years and has two kids, aged 7 and 5.

However, in July 2019, after Joseph resumed duty in Gombe, leaving his family behind in Lafia, he employed the services of an extramural teacher, one Monday Ugo, to teach their kids extra lessons.

Things changed when Monday allegedly decided to switch the period of the lesson from 5:30 pm to 4 pm, this period saw the kids having a one-hour church activity from 4 pm to 5 pm without the husband’s knowledge thus giving Monday and Felicia time to frolic around and ultimately pregnant.
