A Ghanaian man, identified as Abeiku, is believed to be on the run after he killed his wife due to a miscommunication.
Local publications reported that the man killed his wife in the Eastern Region of Ghana, after his first attempt to poison her failed.
According to Abeiku, he had tried to poison his wife’s food. She discovered the truth and refused to touch it.
As the days passed, their misunderstandings escalated and the man threatened to end her life.
Starr FM reported that the woman went to live with her mother in Begoro area of the same region after the marriage which produced two children failed.
She was however killed after reconciling with her husband and moving back to her matrimonial home.
Commenting on the death of the lady, her uncle, Wofa Kwasi said he intervened when the couple’s disagreement grew worse in the days leading to Christmas.
He said;
“The suspect and the now-deceased wife came to me with some sort of misunderstanding, and I listened to both of them.” The wife claimed that her husband had been threatening to kill him and then kill himself.”
“I was upset and decided to let them be apart for a year in order to settle the issue and bring about harmony, but the woman left for her mother’s house for Christmas. I waited for them to come back so that I could make a decision, only to learn that the woman came back yesterday and was killed this morning.”
A manhunt has now been launched by the police for the suspect who is a commercial driver that travels between Koforidua and Kasoa.
