“I didn’t plan to kill her. She is always cheating, she hides most things from me. I discovered she was cheating when I saw her phone, so I got angry seeing her chat with other guys, and that’s why I killed her”
A Nasarawa State High Court, Lafia Division has sentenced a gospel singer, Timileyin Ajayi, to death by hanging for killing Salome Adaidu, a youth corps member, who was allegedly his girlfriend.
Justice Simon Aboki pronounced Ajayi guilty of culpable homicide punishable by death, in line with Section 221 of the Penal Code of northern Nigeria
Ajayi had in January confessed to murdering Adaidu in a fit of anger after she allegedly cheated on him. He also showed no remorse.
“I didn’t plan to kill her. She is always cheating, she hides most things from me. I discovered she was cheating when I saw her phone, so I got angry seeing her chat with other guys, and that’s why I killed her,” he had said.
