SP Abimbola Oyeyemi, who is in charge of public relations for the state police, said in a statement on Monday that Omotosho died in the hospital while he was getting treatment. He also said that Ebenezer was arrested after the deceased man’s older sister filed a complaint at the Kemta Police Station.
Oyeyemi said “The deceased was rushed to Federal Medical Centre, Idi-Aba, Abeokuta, by the suspect (Ebenezer) for medical attention, but died while receiving treatment.
“Unknown to the husband, the deceased had sent a voice note to her family members, informing them that her husband used a padlock to hit her head while beating her, and that if she died, they should be aware that it was her husband that killed her.NYSC portal
“As soon as the voice note was played to his hearing, the husband took to his heels, having realised that his evil deed had been exposed.
“Upon the report and the recording evidence, the DPO, Kemta Division, CSP Adeniyi Adekunle, detailed his detectives to go after the husband. He was subsequently traced to Akinseku village, Abeokuta, where he was hibernating, and was promptly apprehended.”

He added, “The husband who is a carpenter had wanted to take control of the school but the deceased who was an NCE graduate refused.
“This has been the reason why the suspect has always been beating the deceased (Omotosho), until the fateful day when he used the iron padlock to hit her on the head, which eventually led to her death.”JAMB Result
