”The suspect is not remorseful. After killing his wife, he still claimed that his action was the only solution to her starving him of sex”.
Speaking to newsmen, the suspect said his wife had been denying him sex for a long time.
“My wife does not listen to me. Anytime I asked her to come and sleep with me, she will decline. We have given birth to seven children.

”Meanwhile, I heard that she has been sleeping with some pastors,” the suspect said.
