Detectives from the Edo state Police Command have
launched a manhunt for a certain pastor, Henry
Ojochunu Ekukpe, who was alleged to have stabbed his
wife, Patience, to death in the presence of their six
year-old baby, leaving a note containing ten questions
he allegedly expected his late wife to answer.
The runaway suspect, Vanguard gathered, is said to
pastor one of the branches of Mountain of Victory and
Fire Deliverance Ministry in Benin City.
Henry, who got married to his 29-year-old in 2014, has
been having issues that forced the deceased out of his
house months ago.
However, trouble started last Sunday when the pastor
reportedly invited the deceased for a dialogue
pretending that he wanted her back to the house.
When the deceased came, her husband was said to
have used a hidden knife to stab her in different parts of
her body and escaped from the area.
Police investigations revealed a note containing ten
questions the pastor left for his late wife to give
answers to.
Some of the questions contained in the notes were:
1.“Did you come to marry me because of money or for
who I am?
“In the first place, did you really come out with your
own full mind?
“Who gave you the order to pack your property away
from our home?
“Who is your adviser in this marriage that is polluting
your mind against me?
“Have we ever in life went to beg for food ever since we
got married?
“Has you mother ever brought food for us to eat one
day because of hunger?
“Have I not told you at the beginning that I hate
someone insulting me?
“You always pray that God should help you to eat the
fruit of your labour?
“So no man has the power to take one’s life but today
we are going together.
“So how do you feel now?” the pastor had written in the
note.
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, PPRO,
Abiodun Osifo who confirmed the incident, assured that
the police will bring the pastor to book.
Osifo, who described the incident as “tragic and
barbaric”, vowed that the police would ensure the
culprit was arrested.
