A 30-year-old man, identified as Ndubuisi Kalu,
slumped and died after he was allegedly pushed
by his wife in Aba, Abia State.
The couple, who lived at Pepple Street, reportedly
quarreled frequently over his drinking habit. As
the deceased came back again drunk, his wife,
Immaculeta, was said to have pushed down.
He fell and died before he could receive medical
attention.
A resident in the area said:
"The man was formerly employed, but was
laid off by his employer and had since
remained unemployed. "On that day, the man
went out to drink as usual and came back
drunk. The wife, who was not happy with his
drinking habit, started rebuking him and that
angered the man. "While they were arguing,
the wife pushed him and he slumped and
died."
Spokesman of Abia State Police Command, DSP
Ezekiel Onyeke, who confirmed the incident, said
Ogbor Hill Police Division had commenced
investigation into the incident. He said police
were also investigating their landlady and two
eyewitnesses, adding "late Kalu has epilepsy and
there are other things that we need to find out.
"We learned that the landlady gave them
three hours to vacate her house, which she
effected on the day of the incident."
