It was learnt that they had an argument over sachet water. Itakpe during the argument rushed to the kitchen and returned with a kitchen knife, with which he allegedly stabbed his wife multiple times in the chest and neck, leading to her death.

A security guard was said to have knocked on the couple’s door while the argument was on, but Itakpe refused to open the door.

The charges against the suspect read;

“That you, Lawrence Itakpe, on December 5, 2022, around 5pm at 50, Abimbola Street, Seaside Estate, Badore Ajah, Lagos State, in the Lagos Magisterial District, did unlawfully slaughter one Rebecca Itakpe, aged 47, thereby committing an offence punishable under Section 233 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2015.”

The police prosecutor, Inspector Haruna Magaji during the arraignment asked the court to remand the defendant in custody for 30 days pending legal advice from the Directorate of Public Prosecutions.

The presiding Chief Magistrate, O.Y. Adefope, granted the request and adjourned the case till January 31, 2023.
