Speaking with journalists, the father of seven children alleged that his wife refused to have sex with him for a very long time.
He disclosed that he reported the matter to his children, adding that one of her daughters came to talk to his wife but she didnβt listen.
He said: βMy wife is not listening to me, anytime I asked her to come and sleep with me she always decline. We have seven children together, five boys and two girls.
βI reported the matter to my family and her family, but she failed to listen to them and continue her old ways, and I was hearing information that pastors were sleeping her.
βEach time I demanded for sex, either she would tell me she is sick or she has ulcer, yet I am hearing rumour that she is sleeping with other men and I donβt have money to carry prostitutes.β
The grandpa also indicted his late wife for βpoisoningβ his childrenβs mind, thereby making them stop sending him money or picking his calls.
He explained further: βSo on Saturday last week in the afternoon, in the house, I picked up a cutlass and [cut] her all over her body. I did it in anger because she is not obeying me and I want people to know of it.β
