[News] Woman who died after her husband set their Lagos home ablaze during a fight was preparing for her mother’s burial, friend reveals

A friend of a woman, Ebere who died from injuries she sustained after her husband set their Ikorodu, Lagos home ablaze, has revealed that the deceased was preparing for the burial of her mother.

SisyCaro Omojevwe Kodo, who disclosed this in her Facebook post claimed that Ebere had told her that her husband is a jealous lover and had banned her from using social media.

According to Omojevwe, Ebere had travelled to the village for her mother’s burial preparations and returned home without her belongings.

When her husband asked why she didn’t return with her luggage, the deceased explained that she plans to travel again soon so didn’t think it necessary to bring her belongings back with her.

SisyCaro said Ebere’s response angered the husband. He locked her inside the apartment and set it ablaze. Read her post below:

“I will keep on saying it. When u find urself in an abusive relationships pls walk away.”

 

“Ebere, the very first time we met at asolo where I came to buy food items I was talking and having chats with those market women. The vibes was so high and u stood watching me asking people who are mine?
