28-year-old wife beaten to death by banker husband in Lagos finally laid to rest

28-year-old Maureen Adejo, who was allegedly beaten to death by her husband, Olaoluwa Adejo,  has been reportedly buried amid tears on Saturday, Alhaji Ganiu Street, Bako Estate, in the Ketu area of Lagos State.

Present at the burial were friends and family members of the deceased.


It was earlier reported by Punch that the 32-year-old Olaoluwa and the deceased, who hailed from Imo State, had been married for about five years.

The marriage, which was blessed with three children, was said to have been marred with disagreements as the bank worker later allegedly threatened to kill his wife.

She was said to have packed to her mother’s house, but returned for a party at her children’s school.

While Olaoluwa claimed that she took local insecticide, Sniper, their five-year-old son, Richard, said his father tortured his mother and forced the insecticide down her throat.
