Real Reason Woman Allegedly Killed Hubby On Christmas Day

Mr and Mrs Ado’s eight children had looked forward with great expectation to celebrate the Christmas with pomp and pageantry, at least within their financial capacity. 


A week before Christmas, in their one-room apartment in Awori, Majidun area of Ikorodu, Lagos state, they had planned where they would visit. On the D-day, an unkind fate dashed their hope and shattered their excitement leaving them rather, with sad memories. 


Crime Guard gathered that as early as 7am that fateful day, the eldest son, Chidera Odoh, 17, joined his mother, Christiana in hawking rice and pepper soup after leaving some at home for the family to eat. 

They planned to use the proceeds for Christmas celebration. Vanguard gathered that on arrival, a heated argument ensued between Christiana and her husband, Romanus which snowballed into a big fight. Christiana was said to have stabbed her husband with a kitchen knife in the stomach. 


The 55-year-old Romanus reportedly died moment before reaching hospital. 


Conflicting cause of fight 
 There were however conflicting reports on the cause of the scuffle between the couple. A version said it was caused by the refusal of the deceased to provide money for his family to cook for the Christmas. But the bereaved children described the version as false, saying that the heated argument which degenerated into a fight between their parents, occurred after their father accused their mother of infidelity. 


When Crime Guard visited the children in Ikorodu, they looked a shadow of themselves. As at 12 noon Thursday, some of them were yet to take their break fast . After a long wait for an approval from a relative, the eldest son, Chidera, explained how life was snuffed out of their father. He said: “ My mother did not intentionally kill my father. She never meant to stab him, it was all a mistake”.


 At this point, he paused when his siblings began to cry. Continuing, Chidera said: “When my mother and I returned from the market where we went to sell rice and pepper soup on Christmas day, she went straight to bed, saying she was tired. Later, daddy came back home drunk and also went to bed. The next thing we heard was mum telling dad to leave her alone. He started accusing her again of visiting some of her boyfriends. Dad was fond of accusing my mother of having an affair with any man that came to buy rice and pepper soup from her. 


“They started quarrelling and dad stood up from the bed and broke a bottle which he threatened to stab my mother with. I held my father , begging him not to carry out his threat. One of our neighbours, uncle Kola who came in, collected the broken bottle from my father. “But daddy rushed out and came back with a kitchen knife which he threatened to stab my mother with. My mother moved closer to him to collect the knife. But in the process of struggling with him, it pierced into my father’s stomach. When my mother noticed what happened, she called out for help.


 I was among those who rushed my father to the hospital, where he was confirmed dead on arrival”, he said in tears. 

Crime Guard gathered that when news of the death of the Ebonyi state father of eight filtered in , occupants of the building held Christiana until the arrival of policemen from Ajegunle division. They whisked her away. The suspect’s younger sister, Mercy Eze, also told Crime Guard that aside accusing her sister of infidelity, the deceased was also fond of beating her sister. She revealed that her sister had been responsible for the family’s upkeep for a long time, alleging that the deceased usually left home for a week without deeming it fit to drop money for the children’s feeding. She lamented that rather than get a pat at the back, her sister’s late husband would beat her and accuse her of cheating on him. 


According to Eze,” My sister has lost some of her teeth due to constant battering. Any time her husband came back drunk, he would pounce on her . This accusation had been on for long but my sister would always say that she was only holding on because of her children.” 


But some members of the bereaved family did not buy the explanation as they insisted that Christiana allegedly stabbed their brother to death because of his inability to provide money for Christmas food. One of them who gave his name simply as Andrew said that the family would soon come up with its position on the matter. “For now, I can not speak on behalf of my family because I have not been authorised to do so.

 What we heard was that she had been threatening to kill our brother and now she has carried out her threat. We leave the police to do their work”, he said.


 Appeal to Police, government 

Meanwhile, the children have appealed to the Police to carry out discreet investigation with a view to ascertaining how their father died. They also called on the Lagos State government to come to their aid. Chidera said “As it is, we are like orphans. Our father is no more and our mother who used to cater for our feeding and other responsibilities is being detained by the police.


 Since the incident happened, we have been feeding from hand to mouth. Neighbours and relatives have been coming to check on us. But how long will this go ?. Christiana , has been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department , SCIID, Yaba for further investigation , from where she would be charged to court.

  8. Wow I feel so sad for this innocent woman and her children,even if the children are lieing it simply means that thier mother was thier main provider and the father was a good for nothing that made them sad while alive,and now with his stupidity and foolishness he has died without providing for the kids and at the same time snatching away thier mother who usually provided for them...some men are just useless...the police should please release that woman it was a case of self defence joor,a woman that was hawking even on Christmas day wouldn't get angry over her husband inability to provide money for Christmas food at all...those kids and that hardworking woman should not be made to suffer simply because of the man's laziness and foolishness...LET HER GO

  9. We are the architect of our own problems. Eight children with father and mother in one room, why do women put up with shit? This domestic violence obviously started a long time ago, the woman was working her ass off hawking, yet she would get home and the looser horseband will ask for gbenshing after drinking ogogoro, and the kids kept coming. This story is all about frustration, poor people actually have more kids than the rich ones and its a big problem. I only pity the kids.

  12. Avoid domestic violence of any kind. I pray God helps the woman out of this problem. He's willing to produce children that he can't provide for their upkeep and still want more gbenshing after producing 8 children without taking care of them. The woman that struggles to provide for the family end up receiving beaten as weldone. Hmmm

  14. I wish the man is alive for me to kill him again, the Bible says any man that can not provide for his family is worst than an infidel, no rubbish, no peace for the wicked

  15. I believe the children. Stupid family members will be showing power now, but when the man was beating the woman they did not say anything. I pray God vindicate this woman. But she will never remain thesame

  16. Chei God pls let them give her a suspended sentence. It was self defense or manaughter at most. Pls help those children. Hawking rice on Xmas day? Pls God forgive me for ever thinking I had it bad. Pls I pray for her release. If only there's a way to send those kids money.

    1. Abi o, irresponsible men who can't provide for the family always accuse their wife.i remember when we were young that my dad accuses my mom too cos his transport biz crumbled and he didn't want to try any other work and my mom has to fend for 9 people including him, it went on for a long time until we stood up for her and he said he will commit suicide cos we love her more than him, na so his wife started crying o but bottomline it stopped and he searched and got another job and today we bless God for his mercies and faithfulness, we the children are all university graduates courtesy of my mom and doing well. What my mom endured, I can't take the bullshit for anything anyday,my hubby raised his hand on me Love and marriage go end that day cos he will graduate to battering. They should free the woman poop, things are happening in poor homes I have witnessed and experienced it

  38. So women coming here to wish men dead,,,,,if it was der oda way round you all will scream kill him,,,,wat do u expect d kids to say? Rat out der mom so hunger will finish dem. How does a knife mistakenly turn to stab d aggressor. D man might be all dey called him, but d woman killed him. You all sound as if women have d right to kill men and blame it on men, bt when a man beats not even kill a woman, d man must die. You and I know that most women who are bread winners cheat bcos der husband is broke, and don't come her telling me ur mother did nt cheat even tho she was d bread winner, will she announce it if she does. D matter should be investigated murder or manslaughter d law should take it course
