the Lagos State Police Command has confirmed that they have arrested a middle aged lady who allegedly engaged the services of professional assassins to murder her husband and father of her 4 children.
The Lagos big girl was arrested at her house located in Lekki area of Lagos.
This is after it was confirmed that she paid about N600,000 to assassins to help her kill her own husband, with the promise of paying a balance of N400,000 when her husband is confirmed dead.
Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, who confirmed the incident, said the wife is among 25 persons arrested by the command in two weeks for various crimes.
CP Owoseni did not disclose the identity of the Lagos big girl, saying it would jeopardize investigation, but affirmed that the hired assassins had confessed to the crime.
The Police boss added, “He said that the woman paid him N600,000 to eliminate her husband. We are currently on the trail of the [rest] assassins,” explaining that the wife was picked up after a suspect was arrested and he named her as the person who contracted him to kill her husband.
According to insiders, the marriage between the Lagos big girl and her husband has been rocky because the man was always complaining that his wife sleeps around with different men, while the wife complains that he monitors her movement too much. This was said to have led to a separation but the legal divorce never took place.
Apparently, the lady got tired of her ‘rich’ husband and in her desperate bid to free herself from him, she contracted assassins who attacked the man’s house but ended up entering the wrong room and shooting the wrong person.
One of the assassins was caught in the course of their murder mission, and he has confessed.
Let’s learn from others’ mistake. Don’t allow desperation push you into what you will regret in future
