EKO HOT BLOG reports that Mr Isaac Ekeh, a retiree, is accused of pouring hot water on his sleeping wife, Stella.
According to the Nigerian News Agency (NAN), the incident occurred at 3:00 a.m. on May 31 in Satellite Town, Alakija, in the Amuwo-Odofin Local Government Area of Lagos State.
Mrs Ekeh, an educationist who was seriously injured, told NAN in a phone interview on Monday that the family had dinner together before the tragic incident.
“On the fateful day, my children, husband, and I ate our dinner together before going to bed.
“Isaac awoke around 3 a.m., boiled water, and bathed me in the bedroom while I was sleeping.”
My scream alerted my children, who stormed my room as my body was already peeling.
“My children rushed me to the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Igbobi, where I am receiving treatment.
“What baffled me was that we did not quarrel, no fight, no disagreement that would have warranted him to scald my skin,” she said.
The mother of four said that her husband has since travelled to his village after causing her grievous harm, adding that he is currently in his village in Owerri, Imo State.
