A Nigerian man identified as Friday Uko, has been sentenced to death by hanging for killing his pregnant wife, Patience Uko.

The Nigerian who reportedly pushed his 3-month-old pregnant wife, Patience, on the 14th August, 2014, because she took N1000 from his pocket and used it to cook food for their seven children, was handed the death sentence by an Akwa Ibom State High Court, sitting in Ikot Ekpene after Justice Ntong Ntong found him guilty of the crime.

Justice Ntong who stated that the instant death of Patience showed the intention to kill and the force the husband exerted in pushing his wife down, expressed displeasure that a pregnant wife who should have been pampered and cared for by her husband was killed by the same man.

“The accused pushed his wife down having known that she was pregnant and that he ought to know that a pregnant woman ought to be pampered and treated with love and not violence.

“The case is straightforward and that the accused had told the court through his extrajudicial statement that he caused the death of his wife by kicking her because of misunderstanding over N1,000. Anyone who unlawfully kills another is entitled to face the law,” the judge held.

While the convict whose lawyer was not available to defend him pleaded for mercy to enable him go home and take care of his children, the Judge held on to Uko being hanged until he his confirmed dead.

The devil at work

hm

Arghh! Look at what one thousand naira has caused.
Probably he was'nt expecting more cash that moment but yet he should have controlled his anger and not his anger controlling him because the money was used to prepare food for the family. Except there is more to it.


Who will now take care of the 7 children left behind

ok

First 1k for 2 living souls then they already had 7 children. Can poor people please stop having a lot of children only to blame the government and the state of the economy

People should learn how to control their anger

i pity your life bro...
you wicked ooh

Three lives sacrificed for N1k. Its very important to have control over your temper.
Manslaugher would have been an appropriate charge in this case not murder. He was careless and wicked but I don't think he wanted to kill his wife.

Just because of 1k you killed your pregnant wife... God punish you there

Poverty is of the devil

It's worst than any form of disease.

May poverty never come nigh our dwelling.

Amen!

Terrible news.
