A couple has ran into trouble in Ogun State following the pronounced death of a man with whom they engaged in fisticuffs four months back.
The 45-year-old victim, Mark Kalu who, the police said, sustained severe injuries during the fight, died on January 6, 2023, at about 7:00am.
Consequently, according to the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), SP Omolola Odutola, in a statement, she said the couple has been taken into custody, to facilitate a preliminary investigation into the incident.
“The body of the deceased have been deposited at the Federal Medical Center in Idi Aba for autopsy”, she said.
The couple, Mba Moses, 50, and his wife, Florence, were said to have been engrossed in an altercation with the late Kalu at Osiele market in Abeokuta on October 8, 2023, and
efforts were made by the Babaloja of Osiele Market and the Igbo community leader to mediate and find a peaceful resolution.
