The remains of the late Mr. Sym Otike Odibi who was allegedly killed by his wife, a lawyer, at their home on Diamond Estate, Sangotedo, Ajah, were buried on  Thursday amidst tears at the VCC by Mayfair Gardens, Ajah.

He was aged 50.

Newsmen had reported that Odidi was allegedly stabbed to death by his wife Udeme on Thursday, May 3, with a knife. She was also said to have cut off his private parts and placed them on his hand before stabbing herself in the stomach.

Udeme, however, survived the attack and was admitted to a hospital.

Otike was reported to have called a neighbour, his younger sister and his mother on the telephone on Wednesday, informing them that Udeme threatened to kill him.

It was also reported that the duo’s three-year marriage did not produce a child and was fraught with violence.

The 48-year-old was arraigned on one count of murder.
