On Sunday, June 7, 2020, the family of Eni in Ezi Ogudu, Amuku Nkpoghoro, Afikpo North Local Government Area of Ebonyi State was thrown into a mourning mood with the shocking news of the killing of their family member, husband and uncle, Mr. Emmanuel Eni, as earlier reported by Afikpo Jokwa/ AJM NEWS.The wife of the late Emmanuel, who spoke with AJM NEWS correspondent revealed what led to her husband’s unfortunate death.Hear her: “My name is Mrs. Anthonia Okpani Eni.
I’m the wife of late Mr. Emmanuel Eni who was murdered last Sunday.”I got married to my husband, Emma and we wedded in November, 2016.
The very day we wedded, some men came to our house and attacked my husband for leaving a lady he had earlier dated, to marry me.”It took the intervention of our neighbours to get my husband rescued from the attackers who were sent by the former lady he dated, who also had a baby girl for him.”However, when I enquired from my husband why he decided not to marry the lady, he told me he was always having quarrels and misunderstanding with her. No peace in their relationship, no matter how hard he tried; which made him to quit the relationship to settle with another woman.”My late husband also did his best to contribute to the training of the little girl whom his former lover bore for him, but as it was always the case, the lady would not accept anything from my husband on behalf of the little girl, even if it was school fees.
She would rather ask my husband to go to her mum to see if she would accept his contribution. When my husband goes to the mother as directed, the woman would not still receive whatever he came with.
Notwithstanding, I kept on encouraging my husband to keep supporting in the upbringing of the little girl no matter the treatment he was getting from the lady and her mother, because the girl is still his child.”In several occasions, the lady would tell my husband that she would deal with him seriously, and atimes when she sees me on the road or crossing in front of her shop (where she sells provisions), she would begin to abuse and rain insults on me, and even threatened that I can never ever bear a child for my husband.On Saturday, June 6, 2020, my husband came to pick me from my business centre at Ukpa (where I sell food).
As we got to a Suya Joint beside Zenith Bank, Afikpo, my husband packed his motorcycle for us to buy some Suya; then I noticed that the younger brother of my husband’s ex-lover also parked his own motorcycle somewhere along the road with one young boy he was carrying on the bike.”However, my husband did not like the Suya, we mounted on our bike and moved down to the Suya Joint at Ngwori Centre near EBOTRANS park. But as we moved to the joint to buy the Suya, I also observed the young man was coming behind us with the boy he was carrying on his bike, and still came to the same Ngwori, packed his bike and then went inside the hotel with his colleague; which I immediately out of fear told my husband about the suspicious movements of the two guys, but he told me to forget about them.”Then On Sunday, June 7, 2020 my husband received a call, left the house towards evening time and was later found dead beside his motorcycle at Holy Child, Ugwuegu Afikpo”.Meanwhile, Late Mr. Emmanuel Eni’s ex lover had been arrested by the police for interrogations as investigation is ongoing.
